TRANS-LUX CORPORATION
STATEMENT OF DESIGNATION, POWERS,
PREFERENCES AND RIGHTS OF
SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
PURSUANT TO SECTION 151 OF THE
GENERAL CORPORATION LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE
The undersigned, Chief Financial Officer of Trans-Lux Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), DOES HEREBY CERTIFY that the following resolutions were duly adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation on November 9, 2011:
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is authorized within the limitations and restrictions stated in the Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation, to provide by resolution or resolutions for the issuance of 500,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Corporation, in such series and with such designations and such powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof as the Corporation’s Board of Directors shall fix by resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance thereof duly adopted by the Board of Directors; and
WHEREAS, it is the desire of the Board of Directors, pursuant to its authority as aforesaid, to authorize and fix the terms of a series of Preferred Stock and the number of shares constituting such series; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
1.
Designation and Authorized Shares. The Corporation shall be authorized to issue four hundred sixteen thousand five hundred (416,500) shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”).
2.
Stated Value. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall have a stated value of twenty dollars ($20.00) (the “Stated Value”).
3.
Voting. Except as otherwise expressly required by law, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters submitted to shareholders of the Corporation and shall be entitled to fifty (50) votes for each share of Series A Preferred Stock owned at the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote on such matter or, if no such record date is established, at the date such vote is taken or any written consent of shareholders is solicited. Except as otherwise required by law, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders of Common Stock on all matters and shall not vote as a separate class.

4.
Liquidation.
Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the business of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, for each share thereof, out of assets of the Corporation legally available therefor, a preferential amount in cash equal to (and not more than) the Stated Value. All preferential amounts to be paid to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock in connection with such liquidation, dissolution or winding up shall be paid before the payment or setting apart for payment of any amount for, or the distribution of any assets of the Corporation to the holders of (i) any other class or series of capital stock whose terms expressly provide that the holders of Series A Preferred Stock should receive preferential payment with respect to such distribution (to the extent of such preference) and (ii) the Corporation's Common Stock. If upon any such distribution the assets of the Corporation shall be insufficient to pay the holders of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or the holders of any class or series of capital stock ranking on a parity with the Series A Preferred Stock as to distributions in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation) the full amounts to which they shall be entitled, such holders shall share ratably in any distribution of assets in accordance with the sums which would be payable on such distribution if all sums payable thereon were paid in full. Any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, or any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, shall be made in cash to the extent possible. Whenever any such distribution shall be paid in property other than cash, the value of such distribution shall be the fair market value of such property as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
5.
Conversion. Upon filing an amendment to the Corporation’s certificate of incorporation to increase the number of shares of authorized Common Stock so that there is an adequate amount of shares of authorized Common Stock for issuance upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock (the “Amendment”), the shares of Series A Preferred Stock will be automatically converted into Common Stock and such conversion will require no action on behalf of the Company or the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall convert into fifty (50) shares of Common Stock of the Company.
6.
The Corporation and its transfer agent, if any, for the Series A Preferred Stock may deem and treat the record holder of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock as reflected on the books and records of the Corporation as the sole true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes, and neither the Corporation nor any such transfer agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
7.
Reservation. Subject to filing of the Amendment, the Corporation shall at all times reserve from its authorized Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for conversion of all Series A Preferred Stock from time to time outstanding
8.
Restriction and Limitations. Except as expressly provided herein or as required by law so long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without the vote or written consent of the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, take any action which would adversely and materially affect any of the preferences, limitations or relative rights of the Series A Preferred Stock, including without limitation cancel or modify adversely and materially the voting rights as provided in Section 3 herein.

9.
Amendment. The provisions hereof and the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, of the Corporation shall not be amended in any manner which would adversely affect the rights, privileges or powers of the Series A Preferred Stock without, in addition to any other vote of stockholders required by law, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class.
10.
Certain Adjustments.
10.1

Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.
10.2
Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, (A) the Corporation effects any merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another Person, (B) the Corporation effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Corporation or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Corporation effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Series A Preferred Stock, the Holders shall have the right to receive, for each Share of Common Stock that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of one share of Common Stock.
