ARTICLE IV
EFFECT OF MERGER ON CAPITAL STOCK
4.1. Effect of Merger on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, as a result of the Reincorporation Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Newco or the stockholders of the Company:
(a) Every 50.56186 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 (“Oklahoma Common Stock”), other than shares (“Dissenting Shares”) that are owned by stockholders (“Dissenting Stockholders”) exercising appraisal rights pursuant to Section 18-1091 of the OGCA outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be converted (upon surrender of stock certificates representing the Oklahoma Common Stock) into one fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.0001, of Newco (“Nevada Common Stock”), with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and all shares of common stock of the Company shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist (the “Share Exchange”). No fractional shares shall be issued in connection with the Share Exchange. All shares of Nevada Common Stock (including fractions thereof) issuable upon the Share Exchange to a given holder shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the Share Exchange would result in the issuance of any fractional share. If, after the aforementioned aggregation, the Share Exchange would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of common stock, Newco shall, in lieu of issuing any such fractional share, round such fractional share up to the nearest whole share of Nevada Common Stock.
(b) Options, warrants, or other securities of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to acquire the number of shares of Nevada Common Stock equal to one-fiftieth and fifty-six thousand one hundred eighty-six hundred-thousandths (1/50.56186th) the number of shares of Oklahoma Common Stock that were acquirable pursuant to such option, warrant, or other security at the Effective Date. The same number of shares of Nevada Common Stock shall be reserved by Newco for purposes of the exercise of such options, warrants, or other securities as is equal to one-fiftieth and fifty-six thousand one hundred eighty-six hundred-thousandths (1/50.56186th) the number of shares of Oklahoma Common Stock so reserved as of the Effective Time.
(c) Each share of Nevada Common Stock owned by the Company shall no longer be outstanding and shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist.
4.2. Certificates. At and after the Effective Time, all of the outstanding certificates which immediately prior thereto represented shares of Oklahoma Common Stock (other than Dissenting Shares), or options, warrants, or other securities of the Company shall be deemed for all purposes to evidence ownership of and to represent a number of shares of Nevada Common Stock equal to one-fiftieth and fifty-six thousand one hundred eighty-six hundred-thousandths (1/50.56186th) the number of shares of Oklahoma Common Stock represented thereby or that were acquirable pursuant to such options, warrants, or other securities of Newco, as the case may be, into which the shares of common stock, options, warrants, or other securities of the Company represented by such certificates have been converted as herein provided and shall be so registered on the books and records of the Surviving Corporation or its transfer agent. The registered owner of any such outstanding certificate shall, until such certificate shall have been surrendered for transfer or otherwise accounted for to the Surviving Corporation or its transfer agent, have and be entitled to exercise any voting and other rights with respect to, and to receive any dividends and other distributions upon, the shares of Oklahoma Common Stock, options, warrants, or other securities of Newco, as the case may be, evidenced by such outstanding certificate, as above provided.
4.3 Appraisal Rights. No Dissenting Stockholder shall be entitled to shares of Nevada Common Stock under this Article IV unless and until the holder thereof shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such holder's right to dissent from the Reincorporation Merger under Section 18-1091 of the OGCA, and any Dissenting Stockholder shall be entitled to receive only the payment provided by Section 18-1091 of the OGCA with respect to Dissenting Shares owned by such Dissenting Stockholder. If any person or entity who otherwise would be deemed a Dissenting Stockholder shall have failed to properly perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost the right to dissent with respect to any shares which would be Dissenting Shares but for that failure to perfect or withdrawal or loss of the right to dissent, such Dissenting Shares shall thereupon be treated as though such Dissenting Shares had been converted into shares of Nevada Common Stock pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof.
