Preferred Stock. If the Company shall fail to redeem all Our Restated Certificate provides that shares of the Series C Preferred Stock submitted for redemption (other than pursuant to a dispute as to the arithmetic calculation of the Applicable Redemption Price), in addition to any remedy such holder of Series C Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Our board of directors is authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, the relative, participating, optional or other special rights and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series. Our board of directors will be able to, without stockholder approval, issue Preferred Stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the Common Stock and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of our board of directors to issue Preferred Stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control or the removal of our management. Each whole Public Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of our Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on January 20, 2021. The Public Warrants will expire on December 21, 2025, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. We will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of a Public Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under this Certificate the Securities Act with respect to the shares of Designation Common Stock underlying the Public Warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to our satisfying our obligations described below with respect to registration. No Public Warrant will be exercisable and we will not be obligated to issue shares of Common Stock upon exercise of a Public Warrant unless Common Stock issuable upon such Public Warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the Public Warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a Public Warrant, the holder of such Public Warrant will not be entitled to exercise such Public Warrant and such holder’s applicable Purchase AgreementPublic Warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will we be required to net cash settle any Public Warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised Public Warrants, the Applicable Redemption Price payable in respect purchaser of a unit containing such unredeemed Series C Preferred Public Warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the unit solely for the share of Common Stock shall bear interest at underlying such unit. We have filed with the rate of 1.0% per month (prorated Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement for partial months) until paid in full. Until the Company pays such unpaid Applicable Redemption Price in full to a holder of shares of Series C Preferred Stock submitted for redemption, such holder shall have registration under the option (the “Void Optional Redemption Option”) to, in lieu of redemption, require the Company to promptly return to such holder(s) all Securities Act of the shares of Series C Preferred Common Stock that were submitted for redemption by such holder(s) under this Section 8 issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and for which the Applicable Redemption Price has not been paid, by sending written notice thereof will use our best efforts to maintain a current prospectus relating to the Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants, until the expiration of the Public Warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement (the “Void Optional Redemption NoticeWarrant Agreement”), which is filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K and is incorporated by reference herein. Upon During any period when we will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, warrantholders may exercise Public Warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the Company’s receipt exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such Void Optional Redemption Notice(sexemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis. We may call the Public Warrants for redemption: • in whole and not in part; • at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant; • upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrantholder; and • if, and only if, the reported last reported sale price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days before we send the notice of redemption to the warrantholders. If and when the Public Warrants become redeemable by us, we may not exercise our redemption right if the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or we are unable to effect such registration or qualification. We will use our best efforts to register or qualify such shares of Common Stock under the blue sky laws of the state of residence in those states in which the Public Warrants were offered by us in this offering. We have established the last of the redemption criteria discussed above to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the call a significant premium to the warrant exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and we issue a notice of redemption of the Public Warrants, each warrantholder will be entitled to exercise its Public Warrants prior to payment the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the full Applicable Redemption Price Common Stock may fall below the $18.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) as well as the $11.50 warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued. If we call the Public Warrants for redemption as described above, our management will have the option to such holderrequire any holder that wishes to exercise its warrant to do so on a “cashless basis.” In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their Public Warrants on a “cashless basis,” our management will consider, among other factors, our cash position, the number of Public Warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on our stockholders of issuing the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of our Public Warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, all holders of Public Warrants would pay the exercise price by surrendering their Public Warrants for that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (ix) the notice(s) product of redemption shall be null and void with respect to those the number of shares of Series C Preferred Common Stock submitted for redemption underlying the Public Warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the Public Warrants and for which the Applicable Redemption Price has not been paid, “fair market value” (iidefined below) by (y) the Company fair market value. The “fair market value” shall immediately return any Series C Preferred mean the average last reported sale price of the Common Stock submitted for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the Company by each such holder for redemption and for which the Applicable Redemption Price has not been paid and (iii) the Conversion Price of such returned shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be adjusted to the lesser of (A) the Conversion Price and (B) the lowest Closing Bid Price during the period beginning on the date on which the notice of redemption is delivered sent to the holders of the Public Warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, the notice of redemption will contain the information necessary to calculate the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of the Public Warrants, including the “fair market value” in such case. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued and ending thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a warrant redemption. We believe this feature is an attractive option to us if we do not need the cash from the exercise of the Public Warrants after the Business Combination. A holder of a Public Warrant may notify us in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such Public Warrants, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the warrant agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (or such other amount as a holder may specify) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. If the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or by a split-up of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the date on which the Void Option Redemption Notice(s) is delivered to the Company; provided that no adjustment shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Conversion Price then in effect. A holder’s delivery of a Void Optional Redemption Notice and exercise of its rights following such notice shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the effective date of such noticestock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of each Public Warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For A rights offering to holders of Common Stock entitling holders to purchase shares of Common Stock at a price less than the avoidance fair market value will be deemed a stock dividend of doubt, payments provided a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for in this Section 8 shall have priority to payments to other stockholders in connection with a Major Transaction.Common Stock) and

Except for the 2,200 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, no shares of Preferred Stock have ever been issued. The issuance of shares of preferred stock pursuant to the Board's authority could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of Common Stock, and otherwise adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of such holders and may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company. The Company is not required by current Florida Law to seek shareholder approval prior to any issuance of authorized but unissued stock and the Board of Directors does not currently intend to seek shareholder approval prior to any issuance of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock or Common Stock, unless otherwise required by law. Series A Preferred Stock The Company has 2,200 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding with a face amount of $2,200,000. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock were issued to five investors in a private placement in June 1997.
