(c) (i) For purposes of this Section 2, a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the
Corporation shall be deemed to be occasioned by, or to include, (A) the acquisition of the
Corporation by another entity by means of any transaction or series of related transactions
(including, without limitation, any reorganization, merger or consolidation, but excluding
any merger effected exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of the
Corporation); or (B) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation;
unless the Corporations stockholders of record as constituted immediately prior to such
acquisition or sale will, immediately after such acquisition or sale (by virtue of
securities issued as consideration for the Corporations acquisition or sale or otherwise)
hold at least a majority of the voting power of the surviving or acquiring entity.
(ii) In any of such events, if the consideration received by the Corporation is
other than cash, its value will be deemed its fair market value, as determined by
the Corporations Board of Directors. Any securities shall be valued as follows:
(A) Securities not subject to restrictions on free marketability covered by (B)
below:
(1) If traded on a securities exchange or through NASDAQ Global
Market, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing
prices of the securities on such exchange over the thirty (30)-day
period ending three (3) days prior to the closing;
(2) If actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall be
deemed to be the average of the closing bid or sale prices (whichever
is applicable) over the thirty (30)-day period ending three (3) days
prior to the closing; and
(3) If there is no active public market, the value shall be the
fair market value thereof, as determined by the Corporations Board
of Directors.
(B) The method of valuation of securities subject to restrictions on free
marketability (other than restrictions arising solely by virtue of a shareholders
status as an affiliate or former affiliate) shall be to make an appropriate discount
from the market value determined as above in (A)(1), (2) or (3) to reflect the
approximate fair market value thereof, as determined by the Corporations Board of
Directors.
(iii) In the event the requirements of this subsection 2(c) are not complied
with, the Corporation shall forthwith either:
(A) cause such closing to be postponed until such time as the
requirements of this Section 2 have been complied with; or
5
(B) cancel such transaction, in which event the rights, preferences and
privileges of the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and
Series G Preferred Stock shall revert to and be the same as such rights,
preferences and privileges existing immediately prior to the date of the
first notice referred to in subsection 2(c)(iv) hereof.
(iv) The Corporation shall give each holder of record of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred
Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock
and Series G Preferred Stock written notice of such impending transaction not later
than twenty (20) days prior to the stockholders meeting called to approve such
transaction, or twenty (20) days prior to the closing of such transaction, whichever
is earlier, and shall also notify such holders in writing of the final approval of
such transaction. The first of such notices shall describe the material terms and
conditions of the impending transaction and the provisions of this Section 2, and
the Corporation shall thereafter give such holders prompt notice of any material
changes. The transaction shall in no event take place sooner than twenty (20) days
after the Corporation has given the first notice provided for herein or sooner than
ten (10) days after the Corporation has given notice of any material changes
provided for herein; provided, however, that such periods may be
shortened upon the written consent of the holders of Preferred Stock that are
entitled to such notice rights or similar notice rights and that represent at least
a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of such Preferred
Stock.

Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock or Series G Preferred

surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the
Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock or Series G Preferred Stock, as the case
may be, and shall give written notice by mail, postage prepaid, to the 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. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such
office to such holder of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred
Stock, Series F Preferred Stock or Series G Preferred Stock, as the case may be, or to the
nominee or nominees of any such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of

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, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred
Stock, Series F Preferred Stock or Series G Preferred Stock, as the case may be, to be
converted, 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. If the conversion is in connection with an
underwritten offering of securities registered pursuant to the Securities Act, the
conversion shall be conditioned upon, the closing with the underwriter of the sale of
securities pursuant to such offering, in which event the person(s) entitled to receive the
Common Stock issuable upon such conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred
Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and/or Series G Preferred Stock
shall not be deemed to have converted such Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1
8
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred
Stock and/or Series G Preferred Stock until immediately prior to the closing of such sale of

dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation as contemplated by subsection 2(c) above, the
conversion may be conditioned upon, the closing of such transaction, in which event the
person(s) entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred
Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and/or
Series G Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to have converted such Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock,
Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and/or Series G
Preferred Stock until immediately prior to the closing of such transaction.
(d) Conversion Price Adjustments of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred Stock. The
Conversion Price of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred
Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment
from time to time as follows:
(i) (A) If the Corporation shall issue, after the date upon which any
shares of Series A Preferred Stock were first issued (the Series A
Purchase Date), any Additional Stock (as defined below) without
consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Conversion
Price for such series in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such
Additional Stock, the Conversion Price for such series in effect immediately
prior to each such issuance shall forthwith (except as otherwise provided in
this clause (i)) be adjusted to a price determined by multiplying such
Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance
plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration
received by the Corporation for such issuance would purchase at such
Conversion Price and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the
number of shares of such Additional Stock. For the purposes of the
foregoing, the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding shall include
all shares deemed to be outstanding pursuant to subsection 4(d)(i)(L).
(B) If the Corporation shall issue, after the date upon which any
shares of Series B Preferred Stock were first issued (the Series B
Purchase Date), any Additional Stock without consideration or for
consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for such series in
effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock, the
Conversion Price for such series in effect immediately prior to each such
9
issuance shall forthwith (except as otherwise provided in this clause
(i)) be adjusted to a price determined by multiplying such Conversion Price
by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the number
of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the
Corporation for such issuance would purchase at such Conversion Price and
the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of shares of
such Additional Stock. For the purposes of the foregoing, the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding shall include all shares deemed to be
outstanding pursuant to subsection
4(d)(i)(L).
(C) If the Corporation shall issue, after the date upon which any
shares of Series C Preferred Stock were first issued (the Series C
Purchase Date), any Additional Stock without consideration or for
consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for such series in
effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock, the
Conversion Price for such series in effect immediately prior to each such
issuance shall forthwith (except as otherwise provided in this clause (i))
be adjusted to a price determined by multiplying such Conversion Price by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of
shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the
Corporation for such issuance would purchase at such Conversion Price and
the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of shares of
such Additional Stock. For the purposes of the foregoing, the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding shall include all shares deemed to be
outstanding pursuant to subsection 4(d)(i)(L).
(D) If the Corporation shall issue, after the date upon which any
shares of Series C-1 Preferred Stock were first issued (the Series C-1
Purchase Date), any Additional Stock without consideration or for
consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for such series in
effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock, the
Conversion Price for such series in effect immediately prior to each such
issuance shall forthwith (except as otherwise provided in this clause (i))
be adjusted to a price equal to the price per share of such Additional
Stock. If such Additional Stock is issued without consideration, then the
Conversion Price for such series shall be deemed to be $.01 per share.
(E) If the Corporation shall issue, after the date upon which any
shares of Series D Preferred Stock were first issued (the Series D
Purchase Date), any Additional Stock without consideration or for
consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for such series in
effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock, the
Conversion Price for such series in effect immediately prior to each such
10
issuance shall forthwith (except as otherwise provided in this clause
(i)) be adjusted to a price equal to the price per share of such Additional
Stock; provided, however, that this subsection 4(d)(i)(E)
shall not apply to issuances of (1) Preferred Stock, or other securities
exercisable or convertible into Preferred Stock, issued pursuant to
conversion of any securities outstanding as of the Series D Purchase Date or
(2) Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of warrants issued
pursuant to conversion of any securities outstanding as of the Series D
Purchase Date. If such Additional Stock is issued without consideration,
then the Conversion Price for such series shall be deemed to be $.01 per
share.
(F) If the Corporation shall issue, after the date upon which any
shares of Series E Preferred Stock were first issued (the Series E
Purchase Date), any Additional Stock without consideration or for
consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for such series in
effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock, the
Conversion Price for such series in effect immediately prior to each such
issuance shall forthwith (except as otherwise provided in this clause (i))
be adjusted to a price determined as follows:
(1) If the price per share for such Additional Stock is $6.00 or
more, but less than the Conversion Price, the Conversion Price shall
be adjusted to a price equal to the price per share of such
Additional Stock; or
(2) If the price per share for such Additional Stock is less
than $6.00, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted to a price
determined by multiplying $6.00 (the Series E Adjusted
Conversion Price) by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
such issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the
aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for such issuance
would purchase at the Series E Adjusted Conversion Price and the
denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of
shares of such Additional Stock.
For the purposes of the foregoing, the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding shall include all shares deemed to be outstanding pursuant to
subsection 4(d)(i)(L).
(G) If the Corporation shall issue, after the date upon which any
shares of Series F Preferred Stock were first issued (the Series F
Purchase Date), any Additional Stock without consideration or for
consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for such series in
effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock, the
Conversion Price for such series in effect immediately prior to each such
11
issuance shall forthwith (except as otherwise provided in this clause
(i)) be adjusted to a price equal to the price per share of such Additional
Stock; provided, however, that this subsection 4(d)(i)(G)
shall not apply to issuances of (1) Preferred Stock, or other securities
exercisable or convertible into Preferred Stock, issued pursuant to
conversion of any securities outstanding as of the Series F Purchase Date or
(2) Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of warrants issued
pursuant to conversion of any securities outstanding as of the Series F
Purchase Date. If such Additional Stock is issued without consideration,
then the Conversion Price for such series shall be deemed to be $.01 per
share.
(H) If the Corporation shall issue, after the date upon which any
shares of Series G Preferred Stock were first issued (the Series G
Purchase Date), any Additional Stock without consideration or for
consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for such series in
effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock, the
Conversion Price for such series in effect immediately prior to each such
issuance shall forthwith (except as otherwise provided in this clause (i))
be adjusted to a price equal to the price per share of such Additional
Stock; provided, however, that this subsection 4(d)(i)(H)
shall not apply to issuances of (1) Preferred Stock, or other securities
exercisable or convertible into Preferred Stock, issued pursuant to
conversion of any securities outstanding as of the Series G Purchase Date or
(2) Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of warrants issued
pursuant to conversion of any securities outstanding as of the Series G
Purchase Date. If such Additional Stock is issued without consideration,
then the Conversion Price for such series shall be deemed to be $.01 per
share.
(I) No adjustment of the Conversion Price for the Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series
F Preferred Stock or Series G Preferred Stock shall be made in an amount
less than one cent per share, provided that any adjustments which are not
required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and
shall be either taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made prior
to three (3) years from the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment
being carried forward, or shall be made at the end of three (3) years from
the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward.
Except to the limited extent provided for in subsections 4(d)(i)(L)(3) and
4(d)(i)(L)(4) below, no adjustment of such Conversion Price pursuant to this
subsection 4(d)(i) shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price
for the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred
Stock above the respective Conversion Prices in effect immediately prior to
such adjustment.
12
(J) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the
consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before
deducting any reasonable discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed,
paid or incurred by the Corporation for any underwriting or otherwise in
connection with the issuance and sale thereof.
(K) In the case of the issuance of the Common Stock for a consideration
in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall
be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined by the Board of
Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment.
(L) In the case of the issuance (whether before, on or after the Series
A Purchase Date, the Series B Purchase Date, the Series C Purchase Date, the
Series C-1 Purchase Date, the Series D Purchase Date, the Series E Purchase
Date, the Series F Purchase Date, and the Series G Purchase Date) of

their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or options to
purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable
securities, the following provisions shall apply for all purposes of this
subsection 4(d)(i) and subsection 4(d)(ii):
(1) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock
deliverable upon exercise (assuming the satisfaction of any
conditions to exercisability, including, without limitation, the
passage of time, but without taking into account potential
antidilution adjustments) of such options to purchase or rights to
subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the
time such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal
to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in
subsections 4(d)(i)(J) and 4(d)(i)(K)), if any, received by the
Corporation upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the
minimum exercise price provided in such options or rights (without
taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) for the
Common Stock covered thereby.
(2) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock
deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange (assuming the
satisfaction of any conditions to convertibility or exchangeability,
including, without limitation, the passage of time, but without
taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) for any such
convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of
options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or
exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof
shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were
issued or such options or rights were issued and for a consideration
equal to the consideration, if any, received by the Corporation for
any such securities and related
13
options or rights (excluding any cash received on account of
accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the minimum additional
consideration, if any, to be received by the Corporation (without
taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) upon the
conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any
related options or rights (the consideration in each case to be
determined in the manner provided in subsections 4(d)(i)(J) and
4(d)(i)(K)).
(3) In the event of any change in the number of shares of Common
Stock deliverable or in the consideration payable to the Corporation
upon exercise of such options or rights or upon conversion of or in
exchange for such convertible or exchangeable securities, including,
but not limited to, a change resulting from the antidilution
provisions thereof, the respective Conversion Price of the Series A
Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C Preferred
Stock, the Series C-1 Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock,
the Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and the Series
G Preferred Stock, to the extent in any way affected by or computed
using such options, rights or securities, shall be recomputed to
reflect such change, but no further adjustment shall be made for the
actual issuance of Common Stock or any payment of such consideration
upon the exercise of any such options or rights or the conversion or
exchange of such securities.
(4) Upon the expiration of any such options or rights, the
termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the
expiration of any options or rights related to such convertible or
exchangeable securities, the respective Conversion Price of the
Series A Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C
Preferred Stock, the Series C-1 Preferred Stock, the Series D
Preferred Stock, the Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred
Stock and the Series G Preferred Stock, to the extent in any way
affected by or computed using such options, rights or securities or
options or rights related to such securities, shall be recomputed to
reflect the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock
(and convertible or exchangeable securities which remain in effect)
actually issued upon the exercise of such options or rights, upon the
conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the
options or rights related to such securities.
(5) The number of shares of Common Stock deemed issued and the
consideration deemed paid therefor pursuant to subsections
4(d)(i)(L)(1) and (2) shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any
change, termination or expiration of the type described in either
subsection 4(d)(i)(L)(3) or (4).
14
(ii) Additional Stock shall mean any shares of Common Stock issued
(or deemed to have been issued pursuant to subsection 4(d)(i)(L)) by the Corporation
after the Series A Purchase Date, Series B Purchase Date, Series C Purchase Date,
Series C-1 Purchase Date, Series D Purchase Date, Series E Purchase Date, Series F
Purchase Date or Series G Purchase Date, as the case may be, other than:

(2) Shares of Common Stock issued or deemed to be issued either before,
on or after the Series A Purchase Date, Series B Purchase Date, Series C

Purchase Date, Series F Purchase Date or Series G Purchase Date, as the case
may be, to employees, consultants or directors of the Corporation or persons
having a professional relationship with or providing services to the
Corporation, directly or pursuant to a stock option plan or restricted stock
plan approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation; or
(3) Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of any shares of
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred
Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E
Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock or Series G Preferred Stock, as
the case may be.
(iii) In the event the Corporation should at any time or from time to time
after the Series A Purchase Date, Series B Purchase Date, Series C Purchase Date,
Series C-1 Purchase Date, Series D Purchase Date, Series E Purchase Date, Series F
Purchase Date or Series G Purchase Date, as the case may be, 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 respective
Conversion Price of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and Series G 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 increased in proportion
to such increase of the aggregate of shares of Common Stock outstanding and those
issuable with respect to such Common Stock
15
Equivalents with the number of shares issuable with respect to Common Stock
Equivalents determined from time to time in the manner provided for deemed issuances
in subsection 4(d)(i)(L).
(iv) If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the
Series A Purchase Date, Series B Purchase Date, Series C Purchase Date, Series C-1
Purchase Date, Series D Purchase Date, Series E Purchase Date, Series F Purchase
Date or Series G Purchase Date, as the case may be, is decreased by a combination of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date of such
combination, the respective Conversion Price for the Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock,
Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock or
Series G Preferred Stock shall be appropriately increased so that the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of each such series
shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.
(e) Other Distributions. In the event the Corporation shall declare a dividend
or distribution payable in securities of other persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by
the Corporation or other persons, assets (excluding cash dividends) or Common Stock
Equivalents not referred to in subsection 4(d)(iii), then, in each such case, the holders of
the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred
Stock and Series G 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, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E
Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and/or Series G 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 dividend or distribution.
(f) Recapitalizations. If at any time or from time to time there shall be a
recapitalization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision, combination or merger or
sale of assets transaction provided for elsewhere in this Section 4 or Section 2), provision
shall be made so that the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E
Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred Stock shall thereafter be
entitled to receive upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock or Series G Preferred Stock, as the case
may be, 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. 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, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock,
Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred
16
Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred Stock
after the recapitalization to the end that the provisions of this Section 4 (including
adjustment of the respective Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares
purchasable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Stock Series D Preferred Stock, Series
E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred Stock) shall be
applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable.
(g) No Impairment. The Corporation will not, by amendment of its Certificate
of Incorporation or through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, stock
split, stock combination, 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 the 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, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E
Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred Stock against impairment.
(h) No Fractional Shares and Certificates as to Adjustments. (i) No fractional
shares shall be issued upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock or Series G Preferred Stock, and the
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole share.
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, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and/or Series G Preferred Stock the
holder is at the time converting into Common Stock and the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such aggregate conversion.
(ii) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the respective
Conversion Price of a series of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and/or Series G Preferred Stock
pursuant to this Section 4, the 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, Series B Preferred Stock, Series
C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E
Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and/or Series G Preferred Stock a
certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the
facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Corporation shall,
upon the written request at any time of any holder of Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock,
Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and/or
Series G Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be
17
furnished to such holder a like certificate setting forth (A) such adjustment
and readjustment, (B) the Conversion Price at the time in effect for each such
series, 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 such
holders Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred
Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred
Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and/or Series G Preferred Stock.
(i) Notices of Record Date. In the event of any taking by the 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, the
Corporation shall mail to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,

Stock solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock,
Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and Series G
Preferred Stock 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 Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred
Stock; 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
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred
Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and
Series G Preferred Stock, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the
holder of such Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock,
Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F
Preferred Stock and/or Series G Preferred Stock, the Corporation will take such corporate
action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but

purposes.

given to the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series

forth in the preceding sentence, shall not be liable to the fullest extent permitted by the

threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative by reason of the fact
that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving at
the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses
(including attorneys fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding.
(b) In addition, the Corporation shall, to the broadest and maximum extent permitted by
Delaware law, as the same may exist from time to time, pay to such person any and all
expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred in defending or settling any such action, suit
or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon
receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer, to repay such amount
if it shall ultimately be determined by a final judgment or other final adjudication that he
or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article.
(c) Subsections (a) and (b) of this Article VI to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Corporation shall not indemnify any such person with respect to any of the following
matters: (i) remuneration paid to such person if it shall be determined by a final judgment
or other final adjudication that such remuneration was in violation of law; or (ii) any
accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale by such person of the Corporations
securities within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and
amendments thereto or similar provisions of any federal, state or local statutory law; or
(iii) actions brought about or contributed to by the dishonesty of such person, if a final
judgment or other final adjudication adverse to such person establishes that acts of active
and deliberate dishonesty were committed or attempted by such person with actual dishonest
purpose and intent and were material to the adjudication; or (iv) actions based on or
attributable to such person having gained any personal profit or advantage to which he or
she was not entitled, in the event that a final judgment or other final adjudication adverse
to such person establishes that such person in fact gained such personal profit or other
advantage to which he or she was not entitled; or (v) any matter
29
in respect of which a final decision by a court with competent jurisdiction shall
determine that indemnification is unlawful.
(d) The rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses conferred in this
Article VI shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter
acquire under any statute, this Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws of the
Corporation, by agreement, vote of stockholders, or disinterested directors or otherwise.
ARTICLE VII
1. Amendment of Bylaws by Directors. In furtherance and not in limitation of the
powers conferred by statute, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to make, repeal, alter,
amend and rescind the Bylaws of the corporation.
2. Amendment of Bylaws by the Stockholders. The Bylaws may be altered, amended or
repealed, in whole or in part, and new bylaws may be adopted by the affirmative vote of
stockholders with at least a majority of the outstanding voting stock; provided,
however, that in the case of any such stockholder action at a meeting of stockholders,
notice of the proposed alteration, amendment, repeal or adoption of the new bylaw or bylaws must be
contained in the notice of such meeting. In the event that any term or provision of the bylaws is
inconsistent, or conflicts, with the terms or provisions of this Restated Certificate of
Incorporation, this Restated Certificate of Incorporation shall control.
