NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants, agreements, and considerations herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration, which consideration the parties hereby acknowledge and confirm the receipt and sufficiency thereof, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Amendments to Purchase Agreement. Effective as of the Effective Date:

(a) Section 2.1.1 of the Purchase Agreement is amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

First Amendment to

Amended and Restated Sale and Purchase Agreement of Share Capital

(ii) The applicable portion of the Closing Cash Consideration allocated to the Closing Cash Consideration by the Parties as discussed below, is defined as the “Allocated Closing Cash Portion.” The Allocated Closing Cash Portion shall be deemed a part of the Closing Cash Consideration, and shall decrease proportionately the amount of cash payable by the Purchaser to the Sellers at Closing, with the remaining amount thereof payable pursuant to Section 2.7 hereof.

(iii) The Purchaser shall provide the Sellers written notice of the portion of the Aggregate Required Closing Cash which it proposes to allocate to the Closing Cash Consideration (the “Requested Allocated Closing Cash Portion”) at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which Purchaser in good faith expects all of the conditions to Closing as set forth herein to have occurred (the “Expected Closing Date”). (To be clear, such notice will specify both the Requested Allocated Closing Cash Portion and the Expected Closing Date.) The Sellers shall then have ten (10) days to either (a) accept the Purchaser’s Requested Allocated Closing Cash Portion, in writing, in which case such Requested Allocated Closing Cash Portion shall become the “Allocated Closing Cash Portion” for purposes of this Agreement, and the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable best efforts to close the Acquisition on the Expected Closing Date, or (b) reject such Requested Allocated Closing Cash Portion in writing, by designating a lesser amount of Aggregate Required Closing Cash to become the Allocated Closing Cash Portion, which shall thereafter become the “Allocated Closing Cash Portion” for purposes of this Agreement. If Sellers provide a notice of rejection under Section 2.1(c)(iii)(b): (1) such rejection shall be known as an “Allocated Closing Cash Portion Rejection”; and (2) the amount obtained by taking the Requested Allocated Closing Cash Portion and subtracting the actual amount of Allocated Closing Cash Portion approved by the Seller, shall be known as the “Closing Cash Deficiency”).

(iv) In the event of an Allocated Closing Cash Portion Rejection, the Purchaser shall not be subject to liability for its failure to close the Acquisition by the Expected Closing Date, based on its failure to pay the Closing Cash Consideration, and such failure shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement. Additionally, the Purchaser shall have up to forty-five (45) additional days from the Expected Closing Date to obtain sufficient funding to pay the Closing Cash Deficiency (a “Closing Cash Extension”). The Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly raise funding to pay the Closing Cash Deficiency during the Closing Cash Extension, provided that the Purchaser shall not be required to accept any funding terms or other conditions which the Board of Directors of the Purchaser does not determine are in the best interests of the Purchaser or its stockholders under all of the relevant circumstances. In the event the last day of the Closing Cash Extension would be after the date then designated as the Required Closing Date under Section 6.1, the Required Closing Date shall automatically be extended to the date which falls at the end of the Closing Cash Extension. Notwithstanding the above, the Purchaser shall be required to close the Acquisition within five (5) Business Days of Purchaser obtaining sufficient capital to pay the Closing Cash Deficiency, in the event all of the other conditions to Closing have been, or will be, satisfied as of such date.

(d) Section 2.4.3 of the Purchase Agreement is amended and restated to read as follows:

“2.4.3 Following the Closing, the Sellers and certain key employees of the Companies identified on Schedule 2.4.3 shall, subject to the terms of the Purchaser’s equity incentive plan then in effect for its senior executive employees and consultants and/or subject to an equity plan mutually aggregable to the Sellers and Purchaser and approved by the Shareholders at the Shareholders Meeting (as applicable, the “Equity Incentive Plan”), become eligible for certain equity and equity-based awards under the Equity Incentive Plan. Additionally, promptly (i.e., within thirty (30) days) following the Closing, the Purchaser shall grant the Post-Closing Equity Awards to the Persons identified in Schedule 3.1.3, in amounts or percentages confirmed by the Sellers during that period, not to exceed $3,000,000 in aggregate value, when not including the Director and Executive Awards (defined below). All such Persons shall be new employees/directors of the Purchaser following the Closing and/or employees and/or consultants of the Company Parties. All Post-Closing Equity Awards shall be granted to those persons who provide bona fide services to the Purchaser or the Company Parties post-Closing, shall be subject to vesting terms as set by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Purchaser, and shall be subject to agreements evidencing such awards, the terms of the Equity Incentive Plan, and shall further be subject to applicable laws. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that if the Equity Incentive Plan relates to Companies and their employees, any incentive provided by the Companies shall be in line with applicable Laws in the jurisdiction of each respective Company. In addition, (A) Sellers’ board nominees who are appointed to Purchaser’s Board of Directors shall receive similar grants and awards as Purchaser’s current Board of Directors and (B) the Chief Executive Officer of one or more Companies, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, shall be granted awards matching the Purchaser CEO’s Incentive stock for 2024 and thereafter (as applicable), under the terms of the Equity Incentive Plan, and Company executive and Seller Xxxxxxx, as registered secretary of certain of the Companies, shall be granted awards matching the Incentive Stock granted to the Purchaser’s Chief Operating Officer for 2024 and thereafter (as applicable), under the terms of the Equity Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Director and Executive Awards”).”

To the extent that the Purchaser in its reasonable discretion has determined to pay a portion of the Closing Cash Consideration with the Allocated Closing Cash Portion, and the Sellers have agreed to such allocation, as discussed in Section 2.1(c), above, then such portion of the Closing Cash Consideration forming the Allocated Closing Cash Portion shall be paid to the Sellers, by Purchaser, within five (5) Business Days of the Closing Date. Nothing in this Section 2.7 shall limit the Purchaser’s obligation to the pay the portion of the Closing Cash Consideration not a part of the Allocated Closing Cash Portion at the Closing.”

“2.8 Appointment as Officer and Employment Agreement.

Thereafter the Board of Directors of the Purchaser shall immediately take whatever action is necessary to appoint Xxxxxxxxx as Chief Operating Officer of the Purchaser, unless a majority of the Board of Directors of the Purchaser determines that there would (as of such date) be reasonable and adequate grounds, if Xxxxxxxxx were an existing employee of the Purchaser, to discharge and terminate his employment with Cause. Otherwise, Xxxxxxxxx shall be appointed within thirty (30) days of delivery of his notice. Prior to (but effective upon) such appointment, the Purchaser shall enter into an Employment Agreement with Xxxxxxxxx in substantially the form of the First Amended and Restated Employment Agreement between Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxx and the Purchaser (as may be amended or replaced from time to time, including by a replacement employment agreement with any other CEO if, for example, Xx. Xxxxxxx passed away or was terminated), with such compensation, benefit, and other terms agreed upon mutually by Xxxxxxxxx and Purchaser. Moreover, for a period of two (2) years following the Officer Appointment Notice, if, following the entry into effect of such Employment Agreement, Purchaser and Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxx (or a substitute CEO) agree on any material changes to the CEO’s salary, benefits, or other terms, then the Purchaser and Xxxxxxxxx shall enter into simultaneous amendment(s) to the Employment Agreement, ensuring that Xxxxxxxxx enjoys those same benefits and advantages. The parties’ intention herein is for Xxxxxxxxx and the CEO to have no material differences in their employment benefits, but both enjoy “most favored nation” status equally and fairly.”

3.2. Each Committee Nominated Person shall be selected in the sole discretion of the Committee, and each Seller Party Nominated Person shall be selected in the sole discretion of a majority of the Seller Parties as described in the Series C Designation.

3.3. The Committee shall, subject to applicable law and Golden Matrix’s Organizational Documents, have the right to designate a nominee to the Board to fill any vacancy created by reason of death, disqualification, removal or resignation of any director who was a Committee Nominated Person. The Seller Parties shall have the exclusive right to designate a nominee to the Board to fill any vacancy created by reason of death, disqualification, removal or resignation of any director who was a Seller Party Nominated Person, pursuant to the terms of the Series C Designation. Upon the receipt of an Appointment Notice with respect to any such designation, Golden Matrix shall take any and all necessary action to cause such vacancy to be filled by the applicable Nominated Person set forth in such Appointment Notice as promptly as reasonably practicable. In the absence of a designation from the Committee or the Seller Parties as specified above, such Board seat shall remain vacant until otherwise filled as provided above.

3.4. In accordance with the Series C Designation, at all times when a Seller Party is the holder of a Series C Share, the Parties shall instruct their Nominated Persons to appoint one of the Seller Party Nominated Persons as Chairperson of the Board.

3.5. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Party hereto shall include as a nominee for election or appointment to the Board, and the Board shall not be required to take any of the actions in this Section3, in connection with any person who that Party knows is, or during his/her intended term of office will become, a Disqualified Person. If any Party has a reasonable suspicion or knows that an existing nominee or Board member is a Disqualified Person, such Party shall immediately notify all of the other Parties hereto. For the purposes hereof, a “Disqualified Person” is a person for whom the Committee or the Seller Parties, as applicable, reasonably determines (which determination shall set forth in writing the grounds for such reasonable determination) that the nomination, election or appointment of such person to the Board or retention of such person on the Board, as applicable, would (a) violate the listing rules of Nasdaq or the rules and regulations of the SEC (it being acknowledged that (1) as long as Golden Matrix is listed on Nasdaq and certain current rules remain in effect, a majority of the Board shall be “independent” and (2) certain persons may be disqualified as “bad actors” under Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act), (b) due to such person’s past, affiliations or otherwise, would (i) negatively affect the reputation of the Company, (ii) negatively affect the Company’s ability to complete future transactions, or (iii) disqualify the Company from undertaking any offering under applicable securities laws; (c) is improper because there would be Cause to remove or not appoint him/her if he/she were an executive or employee; and (d) is infeasible or improper because such person was or has become mentally or physically incapacitated or disabled and thus cannot perform or is reasonably unlikely to be able to perform his/her duties for a period of sixty (60) consecutive or ninety (90) non-consecutive days in any one-year period, or (c) violate the fiduciary duties that the Board owes to Golden Matrix or its shareholders; provided, however, that if the Board or the Seller Parties, as applicable, reasonably determines that any Board Appointee is unfit for service on the Board for the reasons set forth above, then Golden Matrix or the Seller Parties, as applicable, shall promptly notify the Committee or the Seller Parties, as applicable, and the Committee or the Seller Parties, as applicable, shall then be entitled to designate an alternative or replacement person as a nominee to the Board. Other than pursuant to the foregoing sentence, neither Golden Matrix nor any other Party shall have the right to object to any nominee selected pursuant to this Section 3.

The Xxxxxxx Parties and the Company hereby represent and warrant to the Seller Parties as of the Effective Date that to the best of their knowledge, none of the existing Directors of the Company are Disqualified Persons.

For the sake of clarity, all Parties agree and confirm that none of the Seller Parties are Disqualified Persons as of the Effective Date.

3.6. This Agreement shall be read in harmony with the Organizational Documents and the rules and regulations of Nasdaq, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, and so as not to render any specific provision herein or therein redundant or meaningless. However, in the event of a reasonably unavoidable conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and (a) the Organizational Documents, any nomination, election, or other relevant rules or procedures set forth in Golden Matrix’s Organizational Documents which conflict with the terms hereof, the Parties shall promptly take all reasonable action to request that the Board or shareholders of Golden Matrix, as the case may be, amend such provisions as required to comply with the terms hereof; or (b) the rules and regulations of Nasdaq, the rules and regulations of Nasdaq shall control for all purposes.

3.7. In accordance with Section 9.11 of the Purchase Agreement, Golden Matrix shall, following the Effective Date, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain in full force and effect, directors’ and officers’ insurance coverage in such coverage amounts as the Board of Directors of Golden Matrix deems reasonable, and shall procure the same no later than the Closing Date unless it is impractical or impossible to obtain. Each Seller Nominated Person shall be entitled to the same expense reimbursement and advancement, exculpation, indemnification and insurance in connection with his or her role as a director as the other members of the Board (which shall be primary over any other indemnification or insurance available to such Seller Nominated Person), as well as reimbursement for documented, reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board or any committee of the Board of which such Seller Nominated Person is a member, if any, in each case to the same extent as the other members of the Board. Each Seller Nominated Person shall be also entitled to any retainer, equity compensation or other fees or compensation paid to the non-employee directors of Golden Matrix for their services as a director, including any service on any committee of the Board. During the term hereof and for a period of at least six (6) years after each such Seller Nominated Person’s service on the Board has concluded, Golden Matrix shall not amend, alter, repeal or waive (a) any right to indemnification or exculpation covering or benefiting any Seller Nominated Person nominated pursuant to this Agreement (whether such right is contained in the Organizational Documents or another document) or (b) any provision of the Organizational Documents, if such amendment, alteration, repeal or waiver adversely affects the rights or obligations of the Seller Parties or the Seller Nominated Person pursuant to this Agreement.

3.8. Each Seller Nominated Person may share any information received in his or her capacity as a Board member with the Seller Parties. The Xxxxxxx Parties and Seller Parties (in this context, a “Receiving Party”), as applicable, agree that they will, and will cause their Affiliates to, keep confidential and not disclose, divulge or use for any purpose, other than to monitor and make voting, business, operational, finance, and investment decisions with respect to their investment in Golden Matrix and its subsidiaries, and other than in connection with the Xxxxxxx Parties, in connection with Xxxxxxx’x status as an officer, director and employee of Golden Matrix, subject where applicable to rules and requirements regarding the disclosure and use of material non-public information, any confidential information obtained from Golden Matrix, unless such confidential information (i) is known or becomes known to the public in general (other than as a result of a breach of this Section 3.8 by the Receiving Party or its Affiliates), (ii) is or has been independently developed or conceived by the Receiving Party or its Affiliates without use of Golden Matrix’s confidential information, or (iii) is or has been made known or disclosed to the Receiving Party or its Affiliates by a third party without a breach of any obligation of confidentiality such third party may have to Golden Matrix that is known to the Receiving Party or its Affiliates; provided, however, the Receiving Party or its Affiliates may disclose confidential information (a) to their attorneys, accountants, consultants, and other professionals to the extent necessary to obtain their services in connection with monitoring and making voting, business, operational, finance, and investment decisions with respect to their investment in Golden Matrix, or (b) as may otherwise be required by law. For the sake of clarity, nothing in this Section 3.8 prohibits any Party from (i) reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including but not limited to the Department of Justice, the SEC, the Congress, and any agency Inspector General, (ii) making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation, or (iii) making other disclosures that are required by applicable local, state, federal/national, or international law, which shall not require the prior approval of, or notification to, Golden Matrix. For the further sake of clarity, nothing in this Section 3.8 requires any Seller Nominated Party to share any information, confidential or otherwise, with the Seller Parties, or affords any Seller Party any right to any information of Golden Matrix or the Board; provided, however, that nothing in this sentence shall constitute a direct or indirect waiver of the Seller Parties’ rights to information or documentation under Nevada law, common law inspection rights, the Company’s Articles and Bylaws, and Nasdaq rules.

3.9. The Seller Parties shall have no liability as a result of their designation of a person for election as a director, nor for any act or omission by such nominee in his or her capacity as a director of Golden Matrix, nor shall any Party or other person have any liability as a result of voting for any such designee in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

4. Voting Requirements.

4.1. During the Term, each Seller Party agrees to vote all Common Stock and all Series C Shares of Golden Matrix held by such Seller Party (in each such case in an Election Meeting or Consent), in such manner as may be necessary to nominate and elect (and, if applicable maintain in office) as a member of Golden Matrix’s Board, each Nominated Person.

Nominating and Voting Agreement

Page 7 of 15

4.2. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the initial Seller Party Nominated Person (pursuant to the appointment right set forth in Section 3.1) will be “independent” under Nasdaq rules, and thus no Seller Party will have any direct or indirect power or authority to dictate or control how such persons vote on any proposed motion to remove Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxx as Chief Executive Officer of Golden Matrix (or reduce his ultimate authority to manage Golden Matrix). As long as the following covenant does not directly or indirectly affect each such person’s independence, during the Term, each Seller Party agrees not to request, encourage, or support those independent Directors in voting to remove Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxx as Chief Executive Officer of Golden Matrix (or reduce his ultimate authority to manage Golden Matrix), except as to a removal for Cause, or to the extent that failure to vote to remove Xx. Xxxxxxx would violate their fiduciary duties to the Company or its shareholders.

4.3. Each Seller Party agrees to not vote any Common Stock or Series C Shares for the removal of any Committee Nominated Person, unless such person is a Disqualified Person.

4.4. Any interest or other voting securities, or the voting rights relating thereto, of Golden Matrix, that may be owned, held or subsequently acquired in any manner, legally or beneficially, directly or indirectly, of record or otherwise, by any Seller Party, as a result of the ownership of the Common Stock or Series C Shares, or whether issued incident to any split, dividend, conversion, increase in capitalization, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization, or other transaction shall be included within the term “Common Stock”, “Series B Voting Preferred Stock”, and “Series C Shares” as used herein and shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

4.5. The Xxxxxxx Parties shall vote all shares of Common Stock which they hold in favor of the termination or repeal of Golden Matrix’s classified Board of Directors pursuant to Section 6.1.1(B)(iv) of the Purchase Agreement.

OF

GOLDEN MATRIX GROUP, INC.

ESTABLISHING THE DESIGNATION, PREFERENCES,

LIMITATIONS AND RELATIVE RIGHTS OF ITS

SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK

Pursuant to Section 78.1955 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”), as well as the existing Articles of Incorporation of Golden Matrix Group, Inc., a company organized and existing under the State of Nevada (the “Corporation”), the Corporation:

DOES HEREBY CERTIFY that, the Board of Directors, by unanimous written consent of all members of the Board of Directors on                                           , 2023, duly adopted this Certificate of Designation of Golden Matrix Group, Inc. Establishing the Designation, Preferences, Limitations and Relative Rights of Its Series C Preferred Stock, by adoption of a resolution, which resolution is and reads as follows:

RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority expressly granted to and invested in the Board of Directors by the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended and Section 78.1955 of the NRS, a series of the preferred stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of the Corporation be, and it hereby is, established; and

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the series of preferred stock of the Corporation be, and it hereby is, given the distinctive designation of “Series C Preferred Stock”: and

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Series C Preferred Stock shall consist of one thousand (1,000) shares; and

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Series C Preferred Stock shall have the powers and preferences, and the relative, participating, optional and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations, and restrictions thereon set forth in this Certificate of Designation (the “Designation” or the “Certificate of Designation”) below:

The Series C Preferred Stock is sometimes referred to in this Certificate of Designation as the “Series C Preferred Stock”.

1.	Dividends. The Series C Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any dividend rights.
2.	Liquidation Rights. The Series C Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any liquidation preference or rights upon liquidation.
3.	Conversion. The Series C Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows (the “Conversion Rights”):

3.1 Holder Conversion.

(a)  Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof (a “Holder Conversion”), from time to time, after the date hereof, at the office of the Corporation or any Transfer Agent for the Series C Preferred Stock, into that number of fully- paid, nonassessable shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying (i) the total number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock then converted by (ii) the Conversion Ratio (such shares of Common Stock issuable upon a Conversion, the “Holder Conversion Shares”). In order to effectuate the Conversion under this Section 3.1, the Holder must provide the Corporation a written notice of conversion in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the “Notice of Conversion”). The Notice of Conversion must be dated no earlier than three Business Days from the date the Notice of Conversion is actually received by the Corporation. 

1

	(b)	Mechanics of Conversion. In order to effect a Conversion, a Holder shall fax or email a copy of the fully executed Notice of Conversion to the Corporation (or in the discretion of the Corporation, the Transfer Agent). Upon receipt by the Corporation of a facsimile or emailed copy of a Notice of Conversion from a Holder, the Corporation (or the Transfer Agent) shall promptly send, via facsimile or email, a confirmation to such Holder stating that the Notice of Conversion has been received, the date upon which the Corporation (or the Transfer Agent) expects to deliver the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion and the name and telephone number of a contact person at the Corporation (or the Transfer Agent) regarding the Holder Conversion. The Holder shall surrender, or cause to be surrendered, the Preferred Stock Certificates being converted, duly endorsed, to the Corporation (or the Transfer Agent) at the address listed above (or the address of the Transfer Agent for the Series C Preferred Stock, if the Corporation is not serving as its own Transfer Agent for such Series C Preferred Stock) within three Business Days of delivering the fully executed Notice of Conversion. The Corporation shall not be obligated to issue shares of Common Stock upon a Conversion unless either (x) the Preferred Stock Certificates; or (y) the Lost Certificate Materials described in Section 11 below, have been previously received by the Corporation or its Transfer Agent, unless such shares of Series C Preferred Stock are held in book- entry/non-certificated form. In the event the Holder has lost or misplaced the certificates evidencing the Preferred Stock, the Holder shall be required to provide the Corporation or the Corporation’s Transfer Agent (as applicable) with whatever documentation and fees each may require to re-issue the Preferred Stock Certificates and shall be required to provide such re-issued Preferred Stock Certificates to the Corporation within three Business Days of delivering the Notice of Conversion (the “Delivery Period”).
	(c)	Restricted Shares. Unless the Shares are covered by a valid and effective registration under the Securities Act or the Notice of Conversion provided by the Holder includes a valid opinion from an attorney stating that such shares of Common Stock issuable in connection with the Notice of Conversion can be issued free of restrictive legend, which shall be determined by the Corporation in its sole discretion, such shares shall be issued as Restricted Shares. In the event such Shares are separately covered by a contractual lock-up and/or restriction, such Shares shall be issued, in the discretion of the Corporation, with a legend disclosing such contract lock-up and/or restriction.
	(d)	Delivery of Common Stock upon Conversion. Upon the receipt of a Notice of Conversion, the Corporation (itself, or through its Transfer Agent) shall, no later than the fifth Business Day following the date of such receipt (subject to the surrender of the Preferred Stock Certificates by the Holder within the period described in Section 3.1(b) or, in the case of lost, stolen or destroyed certificates, after provision of the Lost Certificate Materials), issue and deliver (i.e., deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier service postage prepaid) to the Holder or its nominee (x) a certificate representing the Shares and (y) a certificate representing the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock not being converted, if any. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Corporation’s Transfer Agent is participating in the Depository Trust Corporation (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, and so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a legend and the Holder thereof is not then required to return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Corporation shall cause its Transfer Agent to promptly electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder or its nominee with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system (“DTC Transfer”). If the aforementioned conditions to a DTC Transfer are not satisfied, the Corporation shall deliver as provided above to the Holder physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon Conversion. Further, a Holder may instruct the Corporation to deliver to the Holder physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion in lieu of delivering such shares by way of DTC Transfer.

2

	(e)	Failure to Provide Preferred Stock Certificates. In the event the Holder provides the Corporation with a Notice of Conversion, but fails to provide the Corporation with the Preferred Stock Certificates or the Lost Certificate Materials (as defined in Section 11 below), by the end of the Delivery Period, the Notice of Conversion shall be considered void and the Corporation shall not be required to comply with such Notice of Conversion, unless such shares of Series C Preferred Stock are held in book entry/non-certificate form.
	(f)	Conversion Disputes. In the case of any dispute with respect to a Conversion, the Corporation shall promptly issue such number of shares of Common Stock in accordance herewith as are not disputed. If such dispute is not promptly resolved by discussion between the Holder and the Corporation, the Corporation shall submit the disputed issues to an independent outside accountant (reasonably acceptable to the Holder) within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the Notice of Conversion. The accountant, at the Corporation’s expense, shall promptly audit the calculations and notify the converting Holder and the Corporation of the results no later than five (5) Business Days from the date it receives the disputed calculations. The accountant’s calculation shall be deemed conclusive, absent manifest error. The Corporation shall then issue the appropriate number of shares of Common Stock in accordance with the above.

3.2  Automatic Conversion. 

	(a)	Each share of Series C Preferred Stock, shall automatically and without any required action by any Holder, be converted into that number of fully-paid, nonassessable shares of Common Stock as equals the Conversion Ratio, on the Automatic Conversion Date (an “Automatic Conversion” and together with a Holder Conversion, a “Conversion”). Each Holder shall provide written confirmation to the Corporation of his, her or its Beneficial Ownership of Common Stock of the Corporation from time to time at the request of the Corporation.
	(b)	Following an Automatic Conversion, the Corporation shall within two Business Days, deliver notice to each Holder that an Automatic Conversion has occurred, at the address of each Holder which the Corporation then has on record (an “Automatic Conversion Notice”); provided, that the Corporation is not required to receive any confirmation that such Automatic Conversion Notice was received by a Holder, but instead assuming such Automatic Conversion Notice was sent to the address which the Corporation then has on record for such Holder, the Automatic Conversion Notice shall be treated as received by the Holder for all purposes on the third Business Day following the date such notice was sent by the Corporation (the “Automatic Conversion Notice Receipt Date”). Within three Business Days following the Automatic Conversion Notice Receipt Date, the Corporation shall issue to each Holder all shares of Common Stock which such Holder is due in connection with the Automatic Conversion (the “Automatic Conversion Shares”, and together with the Holder Conversion Shares, the “Shares”) and promptly deliver such Automatic Conversion Shares to the address of Holder which the Corporation then has on record (a “Delivery”). The Automatic Conversion Shares issuable in connection with an Automatic Conversion shall be fully-paid, non-assessable shares of Common Stock. Unless the Automatic Conversion Shares are covered by a valid and effective registration under the Securities Act or the Holder provides a valid opinion from an attorney stating that such Automatic Conversion Shares can be issued free of restrictive legend, which shall be determined by the Corporation in its sole discretion, prior to the issuance date of such Automatic Conversion Shares, such Automatic Conversion Shares shall be issued as Restricted Shares.

3

	(c)	The issuance and Delivery by the Corporation of the Automatic Conversion Shares shall fully discharge the Corporation from any and all further obligations under or in connection with the Series C Preferred Stock and shall automatically, and without any required action by the Corporation or the Holder, result in the cancellation, termination and invalidation of any outstanding Series C Preferred Stock and Preferred Stock Certificates held by Holder or his, her or its assigns.
	(d)	Without limiting the obligation of each Holder set forth herein (including in the subsequent clause (e)), the Corporation and/or the Corporation’s Transfer Agent shall be authorized to take whatever action necessary, if any, following the issuance and Delivery of the Automatic Conversion Shares to reflect the cancellation of the Series C Preferred Stock subject to the Automatic Conversion, which shall not require the approval and/or consent of any Holder (a “Cancellation”).
	(e)	Notwithstanding the above, each Holder, by accepting such Preferred Stock Certificates hereby covenants that it will, whenever and as reasonably requested by the Corporation and the Transfer Agent, at the Corporation’s sole cost and expense, do, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such other and further acts, deeds, assignments, transfers, conveyances, confirmations, powers of attorney and any instruments of further assurance, approvals and consents as the Corporation or the Transfer Agent may reasonably require in order to complete, insure and perfect the Cancellation, if such may be reasonably required by the Corporation and/or the Corporation’s Transfer Agent.
	(f)	In the event that the Delivery of any Automatic Conversion Shares is unsuccessful and/or any Holder fails to accept such Automatic Conversion Shares, such Automatic Conversion Shares shall be held by the Corporation and/or the Transfer Agent in trust (without accruing interest) and shall be released to such Holder upon reasonable evidence to the Corporation or the Transfer Agent that such Holder is the legal owner of such Automatic Conversion Shares, provided that the Holder’s failure to accept such Automatic Conversion Shares and/or the Corporation’s inability to Deliver such shares shall in no event effect the validity of the Cancellation.
	(g)	The Automatic Conversion terms described above shall supersede and take priority over the Holder’s optional Holder Conversion right in the event that there are any conflicts between such rights.

3.3 Taxes. The Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect to any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock upon Conversion in a name other than that in which the shares of the Series C Preferred Stock so converted were registered, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Corporation the amount of any such tax, or has established, to the satisfaction of the Corporation, that such tax has been paid. The Corporation shall withhold from any payment due whatsoever in connection with the Series C Preferred Stock any and all required withholdings and/or taxes the Corporation, in its sole discretion deems reasonable or necessary, absent an opinion from Xxxxxx’s accountant or legal counsel, acceptable to the Corporation in its sole determination, that such withholdings and/or taxes are not required to be withheld by the Corporation.

4

	3.4	No Impairment. The Corporation will not through any reorganization, transfer of assets, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 3 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the Conversion rights of the Holders of Series C Preferred Stock against impairment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section shall prohibit the Corporation from amending its Articles of Incorporation, subject to the other terms of this Designation, with the requisite consent of its shareholders and the Board of Directors, provided that such amendment will not prohibit the Corporation from having sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock to permit conversion hereunder.
	3.5	Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock solely for the purpose of effecting the Conversion of the shares of the Series C Preferred Stock, such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the Conversion of all then outstanding shares of the Series C Preferred Stock; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the Conversion of all then outstanding shares of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Corporation will use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.

4.   Adjustments for Recapitalizations. 

	4.1	Equitable Adjustments for Recapitalizations. Each of (a) the Conversion Ratio set forth in Section 3.1 (the “Preferred Stock Adjustable Provisions”); (b) the Series C Voting Shares and the Conversion Ratio (to the extent not adjusted by the Preferred Stock Adjustable Provisions) (the “Common Stock Adjustable Provisions”), and (c) any and all other terms, conditions, amounts and provisions of this Designation which (i) pursuant to the terms of this Designation provide for equitable adjustment in the event of a Recapitalization (the “Other Equitable Adjustable Provisions”); or (ii) the Board of Directors of the Corporation determines in their reasonable, good faith judgment is required to be equitably adjusted in connection with any Recapitalizations, shall be subject to equitable adjustment as provided in Sections 4.2 through 4.3, below, as determined by the Board of Directors in their reasonable discretion.
	4.2	Adjustments for Subdivisions or Combinations of Common Stock. In the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided (by stock split, by payment of a stock dividend or otherwise), into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, without a corresponding subdivision of the Series C Preferred Stock, the applicable Common Stock Adjustable Provisions and the Other Equitable Adjustable Provisions (if any) in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such subdivision, be proportionately and equitably adjusted, as determined by the reasonable, good faith determination of the Board of Directors. In the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined (by reclassification or otherwise) into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, without a corresponding combination of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Common Stock Adjustable Provisions and the Other Equitable Adjustable Provisions (if any) in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately and equitably adjusted, as determined by the reasonable, good faith determination of the Board of Directors.

In the event the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be combined (by reclassification or otherwise) into a lesser number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock, the applicable Common Stock Adjustable Provisions and the Other Equitable Adjustable Provisions (if any) in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately and equitably adjusted, as determined by the reasonable, good faith determination of the Board of Directors. Provided however that the result of any concurrent adjustment in the Common Stock (as provided under Section 4,2) and any series of Series C Preferred Stock (as provided under Section 4.3) shall only be to affect the equitable adjustable provisions hereof once.

If the Common Stock issuable upon Conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any other class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares provided for above), then, in any such event, in lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock which the holders would otherwise have been entitled to receive, each holder of such Series C Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such shares of Series C Preferred Stock into a number of shares of such other class or classes of stock which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon Conversion of such Series C Preferred Stock immediately before that change would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization or reclassification, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein with respect to such other shares.
	4.5	Other Adjustments. The Board of Directors of the Corporation shall also adjust equitably, and shall have the right to adjust equitably, any or all of the Common Stock Adjustable Provisions or Other Equitable Adjustable Provisions from time to time, if the Board of Directors of the Corporation determine in their reasonable, good faith judgment that such values and/or provisions are required to be equitably adjusted in connection with any Corporation action.
