(a) The Company shall, concurrently with the occurrence of any Change of Control, redeem all outstanding Series A Preferred Shares at a price per share equal to the Change of Control Redemption Price (any such redemption, a “Change of Control Redemption”). Notwithstanding anything in Section 4.01 or Section 4.03 to the contrary, the Company shall provide notice of such Change of Control Redemption at least twenty (20) days before the

12

applicable Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the Company’s delivery of any notice of a Change of Control Redemption pursuant to the foregoing sentence, each Holder will have the right by complying with Article V prior to the applicable Redemption Date, to convert (which conversion shall permit such Holder to participate in such Change of Control in the same manner as other holders of Class A Common Stock) all, or any whole number of Series A Preferred Shares that is less than all, of its Series A Preferred Shares into Class A Common Stock pursuant to Section 5.01 prior to any such Change of Control Redemption.

(b) The Company shall, concurrently with the occurrence of any Refinancing Event, redeem all outstanding Series A Preferred Shares at a price per share equal to the Refinancing Redemption Price (any such redemption, a “Refinancing Redemption”). Notwithstanding anything in Section 4.01 or Section 4.03 to the contrary, the Company shall provide notice of such Refinancing Redemption at least twenty (20) days before the applicable Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the Company’s delivery of any notice of a Refinancing Redemption pursuant to the foregoing sentence, each Holder will have the right by complying with Article V prior to the applicable Redemption Date, to convert all, or any whole number of Series A Preferred Shares that is less than all, of its Series A Preferred Shares into Class A Common Stock pursuant to Section 5.01 prior to any such Refinancing Redemption.

(c) At any time on or after the seventh anniversary of the Issue Date, at the request of the Holder Majority, the Company will cause all Series A Preferred Shares then outstanding to be redeemed in cash at a price per share (expressed as a percentage of the Current Liquidation Preference per share of the Series A Preferred Shares) equal to 150.00% (such price, the “Holder Redemption Price” and such redemption, a “Holder Redemption”) and the Redemption Date for such redemption shall be a date not later than 90 days after such request is received by the Company; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (c), at any time on or after the seventh anniversary of the Issue Date, at the request of MINKE IMC Inc. (so long as MINKE IMC Inc. is at such time a Holder hereunder), the Company will cause all Series A Preferred Shares then outstanding and held by MINKE IMC Inc. to be redeemed in cash at a price per share (expressed as a percentage of the Current Liquidation Preference per share of the Series A Preferred Shares) equal to the Holder Redemption Price and the Redemption Date for such redemption shall be a date not later than 90 days after such request is received by MINKE IMC Inc.

(d) If a Material Event Redemption is triggered and the Company does not have funds legally available for the redemption of all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Shares, the Company shall redeem a pro rata portion of each Holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Shares (to the extent not converted as provided herein) to the fullest extent of such funds legally available, based on the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the Series A Preferred Shares to be redeemed if the Company’s legally available funds were sufficient to redeem all such shares, and shall redeem the remaining shares of Series A Preferred Shares as soon as practicable after the Company has funds legally available therefor. At any time thereafter when additional funds are legally available for the redemption of the Series A Preferred Shares such funds will immediately be used to redeem the balance of the Series A Preferred Shares or such portion thereof as the Company is then able to redeem.

13

Section 4.09 Accrued and Unaccumulated Dividends. Any redemption of Series A Preferred Shares, whether optional or mandatory, will be accompanied by the payment of all Accrued Dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares so redeemed to the applicable Redemption Date.

ARTICLE V

CONVERSION

Section 5.01 Optional Conversion. Subject to the conversion procedures set forth in Section 5.02, at any time, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to convert all, or any whole number of Series A Preferred Shares that is less than all, of such Holder’s Series A Preferred Shares into the number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (I) the sum of (x) the Current Liquidation Preference for such shares of Series A Preferred Shares subject to conversion, plus (y) the aggregate amount of any Accrued Dividends on such shares of Series A Preferred Shares subject to conversion (other than any such Accrued Dividends for which the payment has been declared, and the applicable record date for such payment has occurred), by (II) the Conversion Price, in each case, as of immediately before the close of business on such Conversion Date (an “Optional Conversion”); provided that, prior to the expiration or early termination of any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act with respect to an Optional Conversion, such Optional Conversion shall be effected only with respect to that number of shares of such Holder’s Series A Preferred Shares that can be converted without exceeding such Holder’s Individual Holder Conversion Cap, and, after such expiration or early termination, such Optional Conversion shall be effected with respect to the remainder of such Holder’s Series A Preferred Shares.

Section 5.02 Conversion Procedures and Effect of Conversion.

(a) Conversion Procedure. A Holder must do each of the following to exercise such Holder’s right to an Optional Conversion:

(i) complete and manually or electronically sign a conversion notice in the form attached hereto as Annex A or such other form of conversion notice as has then most recently been provided to such Holder by the Company (a “Conversion Notice”) and deliver such notice to the Company in accordance with Section 9.01;

(ii) deliver to the Company the certificate or certificates (if any) representing the shares of Series A Preferred Shares to be converted or a loss affidavit reasonably acceptable to the Company; and

(iii) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and pay any required documentary, stamp or similar issuance or transfer taxes.

The “Conversion Date” means the first date on which such Holder has complied with the procedures in this Section 5.02(a), except that, in the case of an Optional Conversion that is effected as to less than all of such Holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Shares pursuant to the proviso in Section 5.01, such date shall be the Conversion Date only as to those shares as to which such Optional Conversion is being effected, and the Conversion Date with respect to the remainder of such Holder’s Series A Preferred Shales shall be the first date on which such Holder has complied with such procedures as to such remaining shares.

14

The Company shall, no later than five (5) Trading Days after the applicable Conversion Date, issue the number of whole shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such Optional Conversion.

(b) Effect of Conversion. Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Conversion Date applicable to any shares of Series A Preferred Shares, Dividends shall no longer be declared or, subject to Section 2.02(e), paid on such shares of Series A Preferred Shares, and such shares of Series A Preferred Shares shall cease to be outstanding.

(c) Record Holder of Underlying Securities as of Conversion Date. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Class A Common Stock upon conversion of Series A Preferred Shares on a Conversion Date shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of such shares of Class A Common Stock as of the close of business on such Conversion Date. In the case of an Optional Conversion as to which such Holder shall not in its Conversion Notice have designated the name in which shares of Class A Common Stock to be delivered upon conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Shares should be registered, or the manner in which such shares should be delivered, the Company shall be entitled to register and deliver such shares in the name of the Holder and in the manner shown on the records of the Company. The Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, deliver shares of Class A Common Stock deliverable in any Optional Conversion either in book-entry form through the facilities of The Depositary Trust Company (including, without limitation, the Direct Registration System service of The Depository Trust Company) or in the form of physical stock certificates or in book-entry form with the transfer agent for the Class A Common Stock. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Company and the applicable Holder, each certificate or book-entry position representing shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion shall bear such a restrictive legend substantially in the form set forth in Appendix I hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Certificate of Designation, and will be subject to the restrictions set forth therein. In addition, each such certificate or book-entry position may have notations, additional legends or endorsements required by Applicable Law, stock exchange rules, and agreements to which the Company and all of the Holders in their capacity as Holders are subject, if any.

(d) Status of Converted or Reacquired Shares. Shares of Series A Preferred Shares converted in accordance with this Certificate of Designation, or otherwise acquired by the Company in any manner whatsoever, shall be retired promptly after the conversion or acquisition thereof. All such shares shall, upon their retirement and any filing required by the DGCL, become authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without designation as to series until such shares are once more designated as part of a particular series by the board of directors pursuant to the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and, if applicable this Certificate of Designation.

(e) Reservation of Shares of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Class A Common Stock, solely for issuance upon an Optional Conversion, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as shall from time to time be issuable upon an Optional Conversion of all the shares of Series A Preferred Shares then outstanding, assuming all such shares of Series A Preferred Shares are held by a single Holder. Any shares of Class A Common Stock issued upon an Optional Conversion shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

15

(f) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Class A Common Stock will be delivered to the Holders upon conversion of Series A Preferred Shares. In lieu of fractional shares otherwise issuable to a Holder, such Holder will be entitled to receive one additional whole share of Class A Common Stock. The determination of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be delivered to a Holder upon the conversion of such Holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Shares and whether such number of shares would include a fractional share shall be based on the aggregate number of shares of Series A Preferred Shares of such Holder that are being converted on the applicable Conversion Date.

Section 5.03 Anti-Dilution Adjustments.

(a) The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment, without duplication, as set forth in this Section 5.03. If the Company, at any time while shares of the Series A Preferred Shares are outstanding (i) subdivides the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Class A Common Stock (which for purposes hereof shall include additional shares of Common Stock as a dividend on outstanding shares of Common Stock), (ii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Class A Common Stock or (iii) reclassifies the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock into a larger or smaller number of shares of Class A Common Stock, then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

|  | CP1 = CP0 x (OS0 / OS1)
|  | where
|  | CP0 |  | = |  | the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification,
|  | CP1 |  | = |  | the new Conversion Price in effect immediately after the close of business on the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification,
|  | OS0 |  | = |  | the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification, and
|  | OS1 |  | = |  | the number of shares of Class A Common Stock that would be outstanding immediately after, and solely as a result of, the completion of such event.

16

Any adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a) shall be effective immediately after the close of business on the effective date of such subdivision or combination, as applicable. If any such event is announced or declared but does not occur, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Company announces that such event shall not occur, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such event had not been announced or declared. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made for any dividend or distribution with respect to Class A Common Stock in connection with which the Holders are entitled to a Dividend pursuant to Section 2.02.

(b) Calculation of Adjustments. All calculations with respect to the Conversion Price and adjustments thereto will be made to the nearest 1/100th of a cent (with 5/1,000ths rounded upward).

(c) Successive Adjustments. After an adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 5.03, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under this Section 5.03 shall cause an adjustment to each such Conversion Price as so adjusted.

(d) Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted as provided under this Section 5.03, the Company shall as soon as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of an event that requires such adjustment compute the adjusted applicable Conversion Price in accordance with this Section 5.03 and provide a written notice to the Holders advising them of the occurrence of such event and setting forth the adjusted applicable Conversion Price.

Section 5.04 Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Notwithstanding anything in this Certificate of Designation to the contrary, the Company shall not effect any conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares, and a Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Series A Preferred Shares, to the extent that, after giving effect to the conversion set forth on the applicable Conversion Notice, such Holder (together with such Holder’s Affiliates, and any Persons acting as a group together with such Holder or any of such Holder’s Affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Class A Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted Stated Value of Series A Preferred Shares beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, the Series A Preferred Shares) beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 5.04, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 5.04 applies, the determination of whether the Series A Preferred Shares are convertible (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Affiliates) and of how many shares of Series A Preferred Shares are convertible shall be in the sole discretion of such Holder, and the submission of a Conversion Notice shall be deemed to be such Holder’s determination of whether the shares of Series A Preferred Shares may be converted (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Affiliates) and how many shares of the Series A Preferred Shares are convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial

17

Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction, each Holder will be deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Conversion that such Conversion Notice has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 5.04, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the SEC, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Company or the applicable transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two trading days confirm orally and in writing to such Holder the number of shares of Class A Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including the Series A Preferred Shares, by such Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock was reported.

The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall initially be 9.99% of the number of shares of the Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Shares held by the applicable Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by written notice to the Company, which will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company, the Holder may reset the Beneficial Ownership Limitation percentage to a higher or lower percentage; provided that such notice shall not be required in the event of a Material Event Redemption. Upon such a change by a Holder to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation may not be further amended by such Holder without first providing the minimum 61- day notice required by this Section 5.04 (except in the event of a Material Event Redemption). The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 5.04 to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of Series A Preferred Shares.

ARTICLE VI

TRANSFERS

Section 6.01 Transfers.

(a) Subject to Section 1.1 of the Investors Rights Agreement, a Holder of shares of Series A Preferred Shares can transfer any share of Series A Preferred Shares to a Person pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, at any time. Other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer and subject to Section 1.1 of the Investors Rights Agreement, a Holder may not transfer a share of Series A Preferred Shares to another Person.

18

(b) If physical certificates evidencing the Series A Preferred Stock are issued, the Company shall, upon the request and surrender of the record holder of such certificate other than in connection with a redemption of all of the Series A Preferred Shares represented by such certificate, promptly (but in any event within two (2) Business Days after such request) execute and deliver (at the Company’s expense) a new certificate or certificates in exchange therefor representing Series A Preferred Shares with an aggregate Stated Value of the Series A Preferred Shares represented by the surrendered certificate. The issuance of new certificates will be made without charge to the Holders of the Series A Preferred Shares, and the Company shall pay for any cost incurred by the Company in connection with such issuance; provided that the Company shall not pay for any documentary, stamp or similar issuance or transfer tax in respect of the preparation, execution and delivery of such new certificates pursuant to this Section 6.01. All transfers and exchanges of the Series A Preferred Shares will be made promptly by direct registration on the books and records of the Company and the Company shall take all such other actions as may be required to reflect and facilitate, including by direct registration on the books and records of the Company, all transfers and exchanges permitted pursuant to this Section 6.01.

(c) Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company (it being understood that an affidavit of the registered holder will be satisfactory) of the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any certificate evidencing Series A Preferred Shares, and in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company (provided that if the holder is a financial institution or other institutional investor its own agreement will be satisfactory), or, in the case of any such mutilation upon surrender of such certificate, the Company shall (at its expense) execute and deliver in lieu of such certificate a new certificate of like kind representing the Series A Preferred Shares represented by such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate and dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate.

(d) Unless otherwise agreed to by the Company and the applicable Holder, each certificate or book-entry position representing the Series A Preferred Shares will bear a restrictive legend substantially in the form set forth in Appendix I hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Certificate of Designation, and will be subject to the restrictions set forth therein. In addition, each such certificate or book-entry position may have notations, additional legends or endorsements required by Applicable Law, stock exchange rules, and agreements to which the Company and all of the Holders in their capacity as Holders are subject, if any.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no transfer by any Holder shall be permitted unless such transfer is made in compliance with all applicable securities laws.

ARTICLE VII

TRIGGER EVENTS AND REMEDIES

Section 7.01 Trigger Events. A “Trigger Event” wherever used in this Certificate of Designation, means (i) the failure of the Company to pay accrued Regular Dividends under Section 2.02(a) in cash or Participating Dividends under Section 2.02(d) on any applicable Dividend Payment Date (whether or not payment of such Dividends in cash is permitted by law)

19

or (ii) any breach in any material respect (unless the relevant provision is subject to a materiality qualification, in which case, in any respect) by the Company of (x) its obligations pursuant to Article III of the Investors Rights Agreement, or (y) payment of the applicable Redemption Price in cash for all Series A Preferred Shares to be redeemed pursuant to Section 4.08 hereunder (whether or not payment of such Redemption Price is permitted by law or is excused by the last paragraph of Section 4.08). If such breach occurs and is continuing and is actually known to an Officer of the Company, the Company must send to each Holder notice of such breach promptly after it is known to an Officer of the Company.

Section 7.02 Remedies for Trigger Event. If a Trigger Event occurs and is continuing, the Dividend Rate will be subject to an increase (during the occurrence of a single Trigger Event or multiple concurrent Trigger Events) by 2.0% per annum; provided, that the Dividend Rate shall increase by only 2.00% per annum if there are multiple Trigger Events occurring and continuing (as opposed to 2.00% per annum multiplied by the number of Trigger Events). The exercise of the remedy contained in this Section 7.02 by the Holders shall not prevent the exercise of any other right or remedy by the Holders in respect of any Trigger Event.

Section 7.03 Waiver of Past Triggering Events. A Holder Majority, by written notice to the Company, may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Series A Preferred Shares, waive any existing Trigger Event and its consequences under Section 7.02. Upon any such waiver, such Trigger Event shall be deemed to have been cured for every purposes herein; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Trigger Event or impair any right consequent thereon.

ARTICLE VIII

Section 8.02 Minority Rights. The Company shall not pay or cause to be paid, directly or indirectly, any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, amendment, modification or waiver unless such consideration is offered in writing to be paid to all Holders, and is paid to all Holders that approve such consent, amendment, modification or waiver.

Section 8.03 Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a share of Series A Preferred Shares or portion of a share of Series A Preferred Shares that evidences the same share as the consenting Holder’s Series A Preferred Shares, even if notation of the consent is not made on any certificate representing a share of Series A Preferred Shares. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its share of Series A Preferred Shares if the Company and the Holders receive written notice of revocation before the date the consent becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.
