Such notice shall also state the name or names in which the certificate or certificates for common stock issuable on such conversion are to be issued. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, no payment or adjustment shall be made on account of any dividends on the common stock issued upon conversion.

 
 

 


 
(ii)  
The Series B Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to the close of business on the date of acceptance of such Series B Preferred Stock for conversion in accordance with the foregoing provisions and at such time the rights of the holders on the converted portion shall cease and the persons entitled to receive the common stock issuable upon  conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holders of such common stock at such times; provided, however,  that any such surrender on any date when the stock transfer books of the Corporation shall be closed, the person or persons in whose name or names the certificate or certificates for such shares are to be issued shall be considered as the record holder or holders thereof for all purposes as of the opening of business on the next succeeding day on which such stock transfer books are open, and the Series B Preferred Stock surrendered shall not be deemed to have been converted, in whole or in part, as the case may be, until the date such stock transfer books are open for the purpose of determining whether any dividends are payable thereon, and on such conversion date the Corporation shall issue and shall deliver at said agency or office, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of common stock issuable upon conversion.
 
(iii)  
In the case of any certificates of Series B Preferred Stock which is converted in part only, upon such conversion the Corporation shall execute and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder thereof, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate or certificates of Series B Preferred Stock in an amount equal to the unconverted portion of such certificates of the Series B Preferred Stock.


(iv) 
No fractional shares of common stock of the Corporation shall be issued upon conversion of any Series B Preferred Stock. Instead any fractional share of common stock which would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any Series B Preferred Stock (or specified portions thereof), shall be rounded up to the next whole number of shares of common stock.


(C)  
Conversion Price Adjustments. The Series B Conversion Price shall be subject to limitations and adjustments form time to time as follows:


(i)  
In case the Corporation shall (a) pay a dividend or make a distribution on its common stock in shares of common stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of common stock into a great number of shares, (c) combine its outstanding shares of common stock into a smaller number of shares, or (d) issue by reclassification of its common stock any shares of capital stock of the Corporation, then in each case the Series B  Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such action shall be adjusted so that the holder of any share of Series B Preferred Stock thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of common stock or other capital stock of the Corporation which he, she or it would have owned or been entities to receive immediately following such action had such share been converted immediately prior to the occurrence of such event.  An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection shall become effective immediately after the record date, in the case of dividend or distribution, or immediately after the effective date, in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.
 


 
(ii)  
In the case the Corporation shall issue to all holders of its outstanding shares of common stock rights or warrants (exclusive of any rights or warrants issued or granted for all such holders solely as consideration for the guaranty of indebtedness of the Corporation and not as a dividend or other similar distribution to such holders) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of common stock at a per share less than the Series B Conversion Price per share of common stock, then the Series B Conversion Price in effect immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that it equals the price determined by dividing (a) the sum of (1) the product derived by multiplying the Series B Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the date of issuance of such rights or warrants by the number of share of common stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of options, warrants, and other securities convertible into shares of common stock), outstanding after the issuance of such common stock rights or warrants.  Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any rights or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants; provided, however, in the event that all the shares of common stock offered for subscription or purchase are not delivered upon the exercise of such rights or warrants, upon the expiration of such rights or warrants the Series B Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Series B  Conversion Price which would have been in effect had the numerator and the denominator of the foregoing fraction and the resulting adjustment been made based upon the number of shares of common stock actually delivered upon the exercise of such rights or warrants rather than upon the number of shares of common stock offered for subscription or purchase.  In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of common stock at less than the Series B Conversion Price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of common stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Corporation for such rights or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors (whose determination shall be described in the notice of adjustment of Series B  Conversion Price given as herein provided).

“Effective Price” means the sum of (a) the total consideration, if any, received by the Corporation for the issuance of such rights or warrants, plus (b) the minimum consideration, if any, payable to the Corporation upon exercise or conversion of such rights or warrants, plus (c) the minimum consideration, if any payable to the Corporation upon exercise of any other rights or warrants issuable upon exercise or conversion such rights or warrants.

(D)  
Reservation or Shares.  The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from pre-emptive rights, out of the its authorized but unissued shares of common stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of Series B 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 B 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 Series B Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall lake such corporation 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 purpose.
   
    Section 8. Market Price, Merger or Consolidation

(A)  
For the purpose of any computation under Section 4, the “market price” per share of common stock on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily closing prices for 30 consecutive trading days before the day in question.  The closing price for each day shall be the average of the closing bid and ask prices as reported by the NASD OTCBB.

(B)  
In Case of any consolidations or merger of the Corporation with, or merger of the Corporation into, any other corporation (other than consolidation or merger in which the Corporation is the continuing corporation), or in the case of any sale or transfer of all or the corporation into which the Corporation shall have been merged or the corporation which shall have acquired such assets, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to holders of all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock written evidence stating that the holder of all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such shares of Series B Preferred Stock into the kind of amount of shares of stock and other securities and property which are receivable or which, but for the failure to distribute to the holders of common stock all or substantially all of the consideration receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer by a holder of the number of shares of common stock into which such shares of Series B Preferred Stock might have been converted immediately prior to such sale or transfer.  Such written to the adjustments provide for in this Section.  The provisions of this Section 8(B) shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, merger, sales or transfers.
 
(C)  
For purposes of redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock under Section 4 or conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock under Section 7, the provisions of Section 2(A) shall not be applicable and the Corporation shall have the right to modify, in any manner, without the approval of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, such of the powers, preferences, qualifications, limitations and restrictions as well as the number of authorized shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, as my be appropriate to accomplish the said merger and/or consolidation.  The provisions of this Section 8(C) shall similarly apply to successive consolidation, mergers, sales or transfer.
