Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Series A Holder [or Series B Holder] may elect, in such holder’s sole discretion, upon written notice to the Corporation not less than three (3) days before any such Reorganization, for such Reorganization of the Corporation not to be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation within the meaning of this Section 4B.4 with respect to such holder’s shares.
4B.5. Conversion into Conversion Stock
A. Conversion.
(i) Mandatory Conversion.
(a) Upon QIPO. All of the outstanding shares of Series A Stock and Series B Stock will be automatically converted into the number of shares of Conversion Stock calculated in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.5A(iii) hereof upon the closing of the QIPO. Written notice of such mandatory conversion shall be delivered to all holders of Preferred Stock as soon as reasonably possible following the entry into definitive agreements for the consummation of the QIPO.
(b) Upon Call of Required Holders. The Required Holders of the Series A Stock or Series B Stock may, upon at least thirty (30) days notice to the Corporation, cause each outstanding share of Series A Stock or Series B Stock, respectively, to be called for conversion into shares of Common Stock at the then effective Conversion Price (a “Required Conversion”). Such notice shall state the requested date of conversion. The Corporation shall give notice of any Required Conversion, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the requested date of conversion, by certified or registered mail (return receipt requested), postage prepaid, to each of the Series A Holders or Series B Holders (other than the Required Holders who have given a notice of conversion). Such notice shall be addressed to each such Series A Holder or Series B Holder at the address as it appears on the stock transfer books of the Corporation and shall specify the date of conversion and the number of shares requested to be converted.
(ii) Optional Conversion. A Series A Holder or Series B Holder shall at any time have the right to convert any or all of its shares of Preferred Stock into the number of shares of Conversion Stock calculated in accordance with the provisions of Section 4B.5A(iii) hereof.
(iii) Conversion Ratio. Upon conversion of any or all shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 4B.5A, the Holder shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Conversion Stock equal to the product of (a) the number of shares of Preferred Stock being converted and (b) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be equal to the Series Issuance Price (as hereafter defined), and the denominator of which shall be equal to the then-applicable Conversion Price (as adjusted, if applicable, pursuant to the provisions of Section 4B.5B hereof).
(iv) As soon as possible after a conversion has been effected, the Corporation will deliver to the converting holder:
(a) a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of Conversion Stock issuable by reason of such conversion in such name or names and such denomination or denominations as the converting holder has specified; and
(b) a certificate representing any shares of Series A Stock which were represented by the certificate or certificates delivered to the Corporation in connection with such conversion but which were not converted.
(v) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Conversion Stock shall be issued upon any conversion. In lieu of any fractional share of Conversion Stock that would have been issuable upon any conversion, the Corporation will pay the holder of the Conversion Stock the Fair Market Value of such fractional share.
(vi) Conversion Fees. The issuance of certificates for shares of Conversion Stock upon conversion of Preferred Stock will be made without charge.
(vii) Books of the Corporation. The Corporation will not close its books against the transfer of Preferred Stock or Conversion Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of Preferred Stock in any manner which interferes with the conversion of Preferred Stock.
B. Adjustment of Conversion Price. In order to prevent dilution of the conversion rights granted under this Section, the Conversion Price will be subject to adjustment from time to time pursuant to this Section 4B.5B.
(i) Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock; Dissolution.
(a) If the Corporation at any time or from time to time following the Original Issue Date subdivides (by any reclassification, stock split, stock dividend or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares (without a corresponding change to the Series A Stock), the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will, concurrently with the effectiveness of such subdivision, be proportionately reduced, and if the Corporation at any time combines (by reclassification, reverse stock split or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares (without a corresponding change to its Preferred Stock), the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased. In the event of any such reclassification, stock split, stock dividend or subdivision, each Series A Holder and Series B Holder shall have the right thereafter to convert such stock into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change by holders of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Preferred Stock could have been converted immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, subdivision or other change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein or as provided by the terms of such other securities or property.
(b) In the event of a judicial or non-judicial dissolution of the Corporation, the conversion rights and privileges of the Series A Holders and Series B Holders shall terminate on a date, as fixed by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, not more than 30 days and not less than 3 days before the date of such dissolution; provided that the Series A Holders and Series B Holders receive at least 45 days prior notice of such dissolution setting forth in detail the material terms of dissolution.
(ii) Reorganizations, Mergers or Consolidations. If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, there is a capital reorganization of the Common Stock (without a corresponding change to the Preferred Stock) or the merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another corporation or another entity or person, as a part of such capital reorganization, merger or consolidation, provision shall be made so that the Preferred Stock Holders shall thereafter be entitled to receive, upon conversion of the Preferred Stock Stock, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such capital reorganization, merger or consolidation, subject to adjustment in respect of such stock or securities by the terms thereof. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 4B.5 with respect to the rights of the Preferred Stock Holders after the capital reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Section 4B.5 (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock) shall be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable.
(iii) Other Adjustments. The Conversion Price of Series A Stock issued by the Company to the 2005 Investors shall also be subject to other adjustments, as follows:
(a) General.
(x) In any case to which Sections 4B.5B(i) and 4B.5B(ii) hereof are not applicable, except as set forth below, where the Corporation shall issue or sell shares of its Common Stock after the Original Issue Date for a consideration per share (after subtracting the Fair Market Value of any securities or other assets transferred by the Corporation in units or otherwise together with such Common Stock (“Additional Assets”)) that is less than the Conversion Price in effect at the time of issuance or sale of such additional shares (such lower consideration per share, the “Issuance Price”), then the Conversion Price in effect hereunder shall simultaneously with such issuance or sale be reduced to an amount equal to the Issuance Price; provided that in the event the Issuance Price would be less than the Benchmark Price (as hereinafter defined), the Conversion Price shall be the Benchmark Price, as further adjusted pursuant to Section 4B.5B(iii)(a)(y).
(y) To the extent that the Issuance Price shall be less than the lower of the Benchmark Price or the Conversion Price then in effect (the “Weighted Average Price”), the Conversion Price per share in effect hereunder shall simultaneously with such issuance or sale be further reduced to a price determined by multiplying the Weighted Average Price by the quotient of (1) an amount equal to (x) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or sale, assuming conversion or exercise of all Convertible Securities and Options that are convertible or exercisable (as the case may be) at a price below the Weighted Average Price, multiplied by the Weighted Average Price (or, in the event of further adjustments, the Conversion Price in effect hereunder immediately prior to such issuance or sale), plus (y) the consideration, if any, received by the Corporation upon such issuance or sale, divided by (2) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after issuance or sale of such additional shares, assuming conversion or exercise of all Convertible Securities or Options that are convertible or exercisable (as the case may be) at a price below the Weighted Average Price, multiplied by the Weighted Average Price.
(z) This Section 4B.5B(iii) shall not apply to the issuance of (i) all shares of Common Stock issued or issuable to employees, directors or consultants pursuant to any equity compensation plan that is in effect on the date hereof, (ii) all shares of Common Stock issued or issuable to employees, directors or consultants pursuant to any equity compensation approved by the Corporation’s Board of Directors, including the Series A Director, (iii) all shares of Common Stock issued or issuable to bona fide leasing companies, strategic partners, or major lenders, (iv) all shares of Common Stock issued or issuable as the purchase price in a bona fide acquisition or merger or other strategic transaction with an unaffiliated party (including reasonable fees paid in connection therewith), or (v) all shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion or exercise of Options or other Convertible Securities outstanding on the date hereof.
(b) Convertible Securities.
(x) In case the Corporation shall issue or sell any securities convertible into Common Stock of the Corporation (“Convertible Securities”) (including without limitation Additional Assets) after the Original Issue Date, there shall be determined the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion or exchange thereof, such determination to be made by dividing (1) the total amount received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration for the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities, plus the then-current minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Corporation upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (2) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all of such Convertible Securities for such then-current minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration.
(y) If the price per share so determined shall be less than the applicable Conversion Price, then such issue or sale shall be deemed to be an issue or sale for cash (as of the date of issue or sale of such Convertible Securities) of such maximum number of shares of Common Stock at the price per share so determined, provided that, if such Convertible Securities shall by their terms provide for an increase or increases or decrease or decreases with the passage of time or otherwise, in the amount of additional consideration, if any, to the Corporation, or in the rate of exchange, upon the conversion or exchange thereof, the adjusted Conversion Price shall, forthwith upon any such increase or decrease becoming effective, be readjusted to reflect the same, and provided further, that upon the expiration of such rights of conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, if any thereof shall not have been exercised, the adjusted Conversion Price shall forthwith be readjusted and thereafter be the price which it would have been had an adjustment been made on the basis that the only shares of Common Stock so issued or sold were those actually issued or sold upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and that they were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Corporation upon such conversion or exchange, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the Corporation for the issue or sale of all of such Convertible Securities.
(c) Rights and Options.
(x) In case the Corporation shall grant any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire Common Stock (collectively, “Options”) after the Original Issue Date, there shall be determined the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options, such determination to be made by dividing (1) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration for the granting of such Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Corporation upon the exercise of such Options, by (2) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation issuable upon the exercise of such Options for such minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration.
(y) If the price per share so determined shall be less than the applicable Conversion Price, then the granting of such Options shall be deemed to be an issue or sale for cash (as of the date of the granting of such Options) of such maximum number of shares of Common Stock at the price per share so determined, provided that, if such Options shall by their terms provide for an increase or increases or decrease or decreases, with the passage of time or otherwise, in the amount of additional consideration payable to the Corporation upon the exercise thereof or in the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable, the adjusted Conversion Price shall, forthwith upon any such increase or decrease becoming effective, be readjusted to reflect the same, and provided, further, that upon the expiration of such Options, if any thereof shall not have been exercised, the adjusted Conversion Price shall forthwith be readjusted and thereafter be the price which it would have been had an adjustment been made on the basis that the only shares of Common Stock so issued or sold were those actually issued or sold upon the exercise of such Options and that they were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Corporation for the granting of all such Options, whether or not exercised.
(iv) Certain Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 4.B5 but not expressly provided for by such provisions, then the Board of Directors of the Corporation will make an adjustment in the Conversion Price so as to protect equitably the rights of the Series A Holders and Series B Holders.

Said rights shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may otherwise be entitled. The Corporation may, upon written demand presented by a director or officer of the Corporation or of a direct or indirect Subsidiary, or by a person serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another entity or enterprise, enter into contracts to provide such persons with specified rights to indemnification, which contracts may confer rights and protections to the maximum extent permitted by the GCL, as amended and in effect from time to time.

It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce the right to be advanced expenses incurred in defending any proceeding prior to its final disposition where the required undertaking, if any, has been tendered to the Corporation) that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under the GCL for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the claimant shall be presumed to be entitled to indemnification and the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct for permissible indemnification set forth in the GCL.
If the GCL is hereafter amended to permit the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment, the indemnification rights conferred by this Article X shall be broadened to the fullest extent permitted by the GCL, as so amended.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, being the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation, hereby certifies that the facts hereinafter stated are truly set forth, and accordingly executes this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation this __ day of March, 2009.
