On January 7, 2021, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, in accordance with the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, to establish and fix the number of shares to be included in a new series of preferred stock of the Company and the designation, rights, preferences, and limitations of the shares of such new series as summarized below:

 

  The new series of preferred stock is designated as Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”).
  The number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock so designated is Four Hundred Thousand (400,000).
  The Series A Preferred Stock shall have a stated value equal to $25.00 per share (the “Series A Original Issue Price”).
  The Series A Preferred Stock will, with respect to rights to receive dividends and to participate in distributions or payments upon liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, rank senior to the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”).
  The Series A Preferred Stock shall accrue a dividend at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum.
  The holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall not have any voting rights, except as provided by law or in accordance with certain provisions of the Certificate of Designation.
  Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, from and after October 15, 2022, into such number of shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the Series A Original Issue Price plus accrued and unpaid dividends by the conversion price of $5.00 per share, which is subject to adjustment as provided in the Certificate of Designation.
  All outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be automatically converted into shares of Common Stock, at the then effective conversion price, in the event any securities of the Company are listed for trading on any national exchange, including the Nasdaq Stock Market’s Capital Market or the New York Stock Exchange.
  Any or all of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed by the Company at any time after October 15, 2023, at a price per share equal to the Series A Original Issue Price plus accrued and unpaid dividends.
