Stock, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the
office of this Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Series A Preferred Stock, and shall
give written notice to this Corporation at its principal corporate office, of the election to
convert the same and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or certificates for
shares of Common Stock are to be issued; provided, however, that in the event of an automatic
conversion pursuant to Section 4(e), the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be
converted automatically without any further action by the holder of such shares and whether or not
the certificates representing such shares are surrendered to the Corporation or its transfer agent,
and provided further that the Corporation shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing
the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such automatic conversion unless the certificates
evidencing such shares of Series A Preferred Stock are delivered to the Corporation or its transfer
agent as provided herein. This Corporation shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and
deliver at such office to such holder of Preferred Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of such
holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder
shall be entitled as aforesaid and shall promptly pay in cash or, to the extent sufficient funds
are not then legally available therefor, in Common Stock (at the Common Stocks fair market value
determined by the Board of Directors as of the date of such conversion), any declared and unpaid
dividends on the shares of Series A-l, Series A-2, Series A-3, Series A-4, Series A-5 and Series
A-6 Preferred Stock being converted and any accrued but unpaid dividends on the shares of Series
A-7 Preferred Stock being converted. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately
prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the shares of Series A Preferred
Stock to be converted, or in the case of automatic conversion pursuant to Section 4(e), on the date
of transfer to the new non-Affiliate holder; and the person or persons entitled to receive the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the
record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock as of such date.
g. Conversion Rate Adjustments of Series A Preferred Stock for Splits and
Combinations. The Conversion Rate of the Series A-l, Series A-2, Series A-3, Series A-4,
Series A-5, Series A-6 and Series A-7 Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to
time as follows:
(1) In the event the Corporation should at any time or from
time to time after the date upon which any shares of Series A Preferred Stock were first issued
(the Purchase Date), fix a record date for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock or the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to
receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock or other
securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or
indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock (hereinafter referred to as Common Stock
Equivalents) without payment of any consideration by such holder for the additional shares of
Common Stock or the Common Stock Equivalents (including the additional shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof), then, as of such record date (or the date of such
dividend distribution, split or subdivision if no record date is fixed), the Conversion Rate of
the Series A Preferred Stock shall be appropriately increased so that the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be increased in proportion
to such increase of the aggregate of shares of Common Stock outstanding and those issuable with
respect to such Common Stock Equivalents.
A-6.
(2) If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at
any time after the Purchase Date is decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock, then, following the record date of such combination, the Conversion Rate for the applicable
series of Series A Preferred Stock shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be decreased in proportion
to such decrease in outstanding shares. Any adjustment under Section 4(g)(l) or (2) shall become
effective at the close of business on the date the split, subdivision, stock dividend, other
distribution or combination becomes effective.
h. Distributions. In the event this Corporation shall declare a distribution payable in
securities of other persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by this Corporation or other
persons, assets (excluding cash dividends), then, in each such case for the purpose of this
subsection 4(h), the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a proportionate
share of any such distribution as though they were the holders of the number of shares of Common
Stock of the Corporation into which their shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible as of
the record date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock of the Corporation
entitled to receive such distribution.
i. Recapitalizations. If at any time or from time to time there shall be a
recapitalization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision or combination provided for
elsewhere in this Section 4 or a change in control provided for in Section 3(c)) provision shall
be made so that the holders of the Series A-1, Series A-2, Series A-3, Series A-4, Series A-5,
Series A-6 and Series A-7 Preferred Stock shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion
of the Series A Preferred Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of
the Corporation or otherwise, to which a holder of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would
have been entitled on such recapitalization, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein
or with respect to such other securities or property by the terms thereof. In any such case,
appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 4 with
respect to the rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock after the recapitalization to
the end that the provisions of this Section 4 (including adjustment of the applicable Conversion
Rate then in effect and the number of shares purchasable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred
Stock) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable.
j. No Impairment. This Corporation will not, by amendment of its Certificate of
Incorporation or through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation,
merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to
avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by
this Corporation, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the
provisions of this Section 4 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order to protect the Conversion Rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred
Stock against impairment.
k. No Fractional Shares and Certificate as to Adjustments.
(1) No fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of
any share or shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, and the number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock or Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole share.
A-7.
Whether or not fractional shares are issuable upon such conversion shall be determined on the
basis of the total number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock the holder is at the time
converting into Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock and the number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock or Common Stock issuable upon such aggregate
conversion.
(2) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of
the Conversion Rate of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 4, this Corporation, at
its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms
hereof and prepare and furnish to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock a certificate setting
forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment
or readjustment is based. This Corporation shall, upon the written request at any time of any
holder of Series A Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like
certificate setting forth (a) such adjustment and readjustment, (b) the Conversion Rate for such
Series A Preferred Stock at the time in effect, and (c) the number of shares of Common Stock and
the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of a
share of Series A Preferred Stock.
l. Notices of Record Date. In the event of any taking by this Corporation of a record
of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who
are entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend) or other distribution, any right
to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other
securities or property, or to receive any other right, this Corporation shall mail to each holder
of Series A Preferred Stock, at least 20 days prior to the date specified therein, a notice
specifying the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right.
m. Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. This Corporation shall at all times
reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for
the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of the Series A-1, Series A-2, Series A-3,
Series A-4, Series A-5, Series A-6 and Series A-7 Preferred Stock, respectively, such number of
its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of
all outstanding shares of the Series A-l, Series A-2, Series A-3, Series A-4, Series A-5, Series
A-6 and Series A-7 Preferred Stock, respectively, and if at any time the number of authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then
outstanding shares of the Series A-l, Series A-2, Series A-3, Series A-4, Series A-5, Series A-6
and Series A-7 Preferred Stock, respectively, in addition to such other remedies as shall be
available to the holder of such Preferred Stock, this Corporation will take such corporate action
as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares
of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including,
without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite shareholder approval of any
necessary amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation.
n. Notices. Any notice required to be given to the holders of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock shall be deemed given if deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, and
addressed to each holder of record at his address appearing on the books of this Corporation.
A-8.
5. Voting Rights. The holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall not have any
voting rights, except as required under the General Corporation Law of
Delaware.
6. Status of Unissued, Converted or Redeemed Stock. In the event any shares shall be
converted pursuant to Section 4 hereof, the shares so converted shall be cancelled and shall not be
issuable by the Corporation. The Certificate of Incorporation of this Corporation shall be
appropriately amended to effect the corresponding reduction in the Corporations authorized capital
stock. In the event the Corporation issues less than the number of authorized shares of any
subseries of Series A Preferred Stock, the Certificate of Incorporation of this Corporation shall
be appropriately amended to effect a corresponding reduction in such subseries of Preferred Stock.
7. Cancellation of Series A-3 Preferred Stock. If the Approval Process Event has
not occurred on or before the First Anniversary Date and if the Patent Milestone Event occurs prior
to the Third Anniversary Date, then this Corporation may, at its option, cancel that number of
shares of Series A-3 Preferred Stock (or if an insufficient number of shares of Series A-3
Preferred Stock are outstanding, then an equivalent number of outstanding shares of other subseries
of Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock) equal to $2,500,000 divided by the Series A-3
Cancellation Price, where the Series A-3 Cancellation Price equals the higher of the (i) price
paid per share for the Series A-3 Preferred Stock on the date of issuance, or (ii) fair market
value of the Series A-3 Preferred Stock calculated as (A) the average closing price for the
Corporations Common Stock during the period beginning twenty- three (23) trading days prior to the
date of cancellation and ending three (3) trading days prior to the date of cancellation, as
reported on the National Exchange, multiplied by (B) the Conversion Rate for the Series A-3
Preferred Stock.
8. Cancellation
of Series A-7 Preferred Stock. If the FDA Approval Date occurs on or
before the Fifty-Four Month Anniversary Date, the Corporation shall cancel all of the then
outstanding shares of Series A-7 Preferred Stock by crediting therefor an amount equal to the
liquidation preference of such shares (including accrued but unpaid dividends) against the
milestone payments due the Corporation pursuant to the Collaboration Agreement, such amount to be
credited first to the milestone payment payable upon Regulatory Approval in the United States (as
described in Section 7.4 of the Collaboration Agreement) and second, to the extent the aforesaid
liquidation preference remains unpaid, to the milestone payment then payable on the date of
regulatory approval in the first Major European Country (as described in Section 7.4 of the
Collaboration Agreement) (collectively, the Milestone Payments). If at any time there is a
Default Event (defined below), the Corporation shall immediately cancel all of the outstanding
shares of Series A-7 Preferred Stock by paying the holders in cash an amount equal to the
liquidation preference of such shares (including accrued but unpaid dividends) (an Acceleration
Event). If the Corporation is unable to cancel such shares of Series A-7 Preferred Stock within
seven (7) calendar days from the occurrence of the Default Event, then notwithstanding any
provision herein to the contrary, the holder of such shares may, at its sole election, convert such
shares into shares of Common Stock of the Corporation equal to the liquidation preference of such
shares (including accrued but unpaid dividends) divided by the Original Issue Price for such
subseries multiplied by the Conversion Rate for the Series A-7 Preferred Stock. If there is an
Acceleration Event and the holder receives cash or converts to
A-9.
Common Stock in exchange for cancellation of the outstanding shares of Series A-7 Preferred Stock
as described in the preceding sentence, the holder shall be obligated to pay, in cash, to the
Corporation, any and all Milestone Payments as such payments become due under the Collaboration
Agreement.
A Default Event shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events:
(i) Distributions. Failure to make a required payment or distribution
hereunder;
(ii) Material Adverse Event. At the end of any fiscal
quarter, the total cash, cash equivalents and marketable debt investments of the Corporation shall
be valued at less than the sum of the principal of and unpaid accrued interest on (i) all
indebtedness of the Corporation to banks, insurance companies or financial institutions regularly
engaged in the business of lending money, which is for money borrowed by the Corporation; (ii) all
purchase money security interests in an amount not to exceed $5,000,000 (as defined in the
California Uniform Commercial Code); and (iii) the liquidation preference of the outstanding
Series A-7 Preferred Stock. In such event, the Corporation shall provide holder with written
notice thereof within twenty-four (24) hours of determining that such event has occurred.
(iii) Bankruptcy Commenced by the Corporation. If the Corporation:
(a) shall
commence any proceeding in
bankruptcy or seek reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of its debts, dissolution,
liquidation, winding-up, composition or any other relief under the United States Bankruptcy Act, as
amended, or under any other insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, arrangement, composition,

such event continues for ninety (90) days undismissed, unbounded and undischarged; and
(v) Material Breach. (A) Any breach of any material
representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the Corporation under (i) the Collaboration
Agreement, which breach is not cured within sixty (60) days of written notice thereof from
Genentech (or if such breach is not susceptible of cure within such period, the Corporation is not
making diligent good faith efforts to cure such breach); (ii) the Preferred Stock Purchase
Agreement, the Option Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement, which breach is not cured
within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such breach from Genentech to the
Corporation; or (iii) the ML/MS Agreement, to the extent such breach materially adversely affects

RIGHTS, PREFERENCES AND RESTRICTIONS OF THE
SERIES X JUNIOR PARTICIPATING PREFERRED STOCK
SERIES X JUNIOR PARTICIPATING PREFERRED STOCK
The rights, preferences, restrictions and other matters relating to the Series X Junior
Participating Preferred Stock shall be as follows:
Section 1. Designation and Amount. The shares of such series shall be designated as
Series X Junior Participating Preferred Stock (the Series X Preferred Stock) and the number of
shares constituting the Series X Preferred Stock shall be Fifty Eight Thousand (58,000). Such
number of shares may be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board of Directors;
provided, that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series X Preferred Stock to
a number less than the number of shares then outstanding plus the number of shares reserved for
issuance upon the exercise of outstanding options, rights or warrants or upon the conversion of any
outstanding securities issued by the Corporation which are convertible into Series X Preferred
Stock.
Section 2. Dividends and Distributions.
(A) Subject to the rights of the holders of any shares of any series of Preferred
Stock (or any similar stock) ranking prior and superior to the Series X Preferred Stock
with respect to dividends, the holders of shares of Series X Preferred Stock, in preference
to the holders of the Common Stock of the Corporation (the Common Stock), and of any
other junior stock, shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of
Directors out of funds legally available for the purpose, quarterly dividends payable in
cash on the first day of March, June, September and December in each year (each such date
being referred to herein as a Quarterly Dividend Payment Date), commencing on the first
Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a share or fraction of a share
of Series X Preferred Stock, in an amount per share (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to,
subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, 1000 times the aggregate per
share amount of all cash dividends, and 1000 times the aggregate per share amount (payable
in kind) of all non-cash dividends or other distributions, other than a dividend payable in
shares of Common Stock or a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by
reclassification or otherwise), declared on the Common Stock since the immediately
preceding Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or, with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend
Payment Date, since the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series X
Preferred Stock. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend
on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or
combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification
or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or
lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the amount to which holders
of shares of Series X Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under
the preceding sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of shares
B-1.
of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the
number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
(B) The Corporation shall declare a dividend or distribution on the Series X Preferred
Stock as provided in paragraph (A) of this Section immediately after it declares a dividend
or distribution on the Common Stock (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common
Stock).
(C) Dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative on outstanding shares of Series X
Preferred Stock from the Quarterly Dividend Payment Date next preceding the date of issue of
such shares, unless the date of issue of such shares is prior to the record date for the
first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in which case dividends on such shares shall begin to
accrue from the date of issue of such shares, or unless the date of issue is a Quarterly
Dividend Payment Date or is a date after the record date for the determination of holders of
shares of Series X Preferred Stock entitled to receive a quarterly dividend and before such
Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in either of which events such dividends shall begin to
accrue and be cumulative from such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date. Accrued but unpaid
dividends shall not bear interest. Dividends paid on the shares of Series X Preferred Stock
in an amount less than the total amount of such dividends at the time accrued and payable on
such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a share-by-share basis among all such shares at
the time outstanding. The Board of Directors may fix a record date for the determination of
holders of shares of Series X Preferred Stock entitled to receive payment of a dividend or
distribution declared thereon, which record date shall be not more than 60 days prior to the
date fixed for the payment thereof.
Section 3. Voting Rights. The holders of shares of Series X Preferred Stock
shall have the following voting rights:
(A) Subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, each share of Series
X Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to 1000 votes on all matters submitted to
a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation. In the event the Corporation shall at any
time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or
effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common
Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the
number of votes per share to which holders of shares of Series X Preferred Stock were
entitled immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted by multiplying such number by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common
Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
(B) Except as otherwise provided herein, in any other Certificate of
Designation creating a series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock, or by law, the
holders of shares of Series X Preferred Stock and the holders of shares of Common Stock
B-2.
and any other capital stock of the Corporation having general voting rights shall vote together as
one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation.
(C) Except as set forth herein, or as otherwise provided by law, holders of Series X Preferred
Stock shall have no special voting rights and their consent shall not be required (except to the
extent they are entitled to vote with holders of Common Stock as set forth herein) for taking any
corporate action.
Section 4. Certain Restrictions.
(A) Whenever quarterly dividends or other dividends or distributions payable on the Series X
Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2 are in arrears, thereafter and until all accrued and
unpaid dividends and distributions, whether or not declared, on shares of Series X Preferred Stock
outstanding shall have been paid in full, the Corporation shall not:
(i) declare or pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares of stock
ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to
the Series X Preferred Stock;
(ii) declare or pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares of
stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or
winding up) with the Series X Preferred Stock, except dividends paid ratably on the Series
X Preferred Stock and all such parity stock on which dividends are payable or in arrears
in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are then
entitled;
(iii) redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration shares of any stock
ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to
the Series X Preferred Stock, provided that the Corporation may at any time redeem,
purchase or otherwise acquire shares of any such junior stock in exchange for shares of
any stock of the Corporation ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon dissolution,
liquidation or winding up) to the Series X Preferred Stock; or
(iv) redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of Series X
Preferred Stock, or any shares of stock ranking on a parity with the Series X Preferred
Stock, except in accordance with a purchase offer made in writing or by publication (as
determined by the Board of Directors) to all holders of such shares upon such terms as the
Board of Directors, after consideration of the respective annual dividend rates and other
relative rights and preferences of the respective series and classes, shall determine in
good faith will result in fair and equitable treatment among the respective series or
classes.
(B) The Corporation shall not permit any subsidiary of the Corporation to purchase or
otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock of the Corporation
B-3.
unless the Corporation could, under paragraph (A) of this Section 4, purchase or otherwise
acquire such shares at such time and in such manner.
Section 5. Reacquired Shares. Any shares of Series X Preferred Stock purchased or otherwise
acquired by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever shall be retired and cancelled promptly after
the acquisition thereof. All such shares shall upon their cancellation become authorized but
unissued shares of Preferred Stock and may be reissued as part of a new series of Preferred Stock
subject to the conditions and restrictions on issuance set forth herein, in the Certificate of
Incorporation, or in any other Certificate of Designation creating a series of Preferred Stock or
any similar stock or as otherwise required by law.
Section 6. Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. Upon any liquidation, dissolution
or winding up of the Corporation, no distribution shall be made (1) to the holders of shares of
stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the
Series X Preferred Stock unless, prior thereto, the holders of shares of Series X Preferred Stock
shall have received $1,000 per share, plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends and
distributions thereon, whether or not declared, to the date of such payment, provided that the
holders of shares of Series X Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive an aggregate amount per
share, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to 1000 times the
aggregate amount to be distributed per share to holders of shares of Common Stock, or (2) to the
holders of shares of stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up) with the Series X Preferred Stock, except distributions made ratably on
the Series X Preferred Stock and all such parity stock in proportion to the total amounts to which
the holders of all such shares are entitled upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding up. In
the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable
in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend
in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each
such case the aggregate amount to which holders of shares of Series X Preferred Stock were entitled
immediately prior to such event under the proviso in clause (1) of the preceding sentence shall be
adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of
shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
Section 7. Consolidation, Merger, etc. In case the Corporation shall enter into any
consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are
exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash and/or any other property, then in
any such case each share of Series X Preferred Stock shall at the same time be similarly exchanged
or changed into an amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set
forth, equal to 1000 times the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash and/or any other
property (payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of Common Stock
is changed or exchanged. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any
dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or
combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or
otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number
of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the amount set forth
B-4.
in the preceding sentence with respect to the exchange or change of shares of Series X Preferred
Stock shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of
which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such
event.
Section 8. No Redemption. The shares of Series X Preferred Stock shall not be redeemable.
Section 9. Rank. The Series X Preferred Stock shall rank, with respect to the payment
of dividends and the distribution of assets, junior to all series of any other class of the
Corporations Preferred Stock.
Section 10. Amendment. The Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation shall not
be amended in any manner which would materially alter or change the powers, preferences or special
rights of the Series X Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely without the affirmative vote
of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Series X Preferred Stock, voting
together as a single class.
