The holders of each series of Preferred Stock will not be entitled to receive notice of or to attend any meeting of the shareholders of the Company and will not be entitled to vote at any such meeting. The holders of each series of Preferred Stock are entitled to receive fixed, cumulative, preferential cash dividends at a rate of 8% per share of Preferred Stock per year, payable in equal quarterly installments if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company. Dividends on outstanding shares of each series of Preferred Stock will accrue from day to day commencing on the date of issuance of each such share of Preferred Stock.  The cash dividend rate will increase to 18% per share of Preferred Stock if the dividend is not paid and accumulates for a period greater than two consecutive quarters from the date of the most recent dividend payment. The Company will redeem any Preferred Stock not previously converted into common shares, and which remain outstanding on the conversion date, for the price of $25.00 per share of Preferred Stock, plus accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not declared, up to and including the date specified for redemption.

 

The Company shall have the option to redeem 25% of each series of Preferred Stock it has issued following a sale of assets representing more than 15% of the Company’s consolidated revenues in the prior 12 month period at a price equal to the amount that would yield a total internal rate of return of 15% on the subscription price paid to the Company for the purchase of shares of Preferred Stock submitted for redemption.
