ARTICLE III

AUTHORIZED SHARES

Common Stock

 

1.

Number, Designation and Par Value. The Corporation is authorized to issue One Hundred Million (100,000,000) shares designated as "Common Stock" each having no par value (the "Common Stock").

2.

Voting. All voting rights of the Corporation, subject to any preferences or rights that may be granted to the holders of the Preferred Stock (as defined below), shall be exercised by the holders of the Common Stock.

3.

Net Assets. The holders of the Common Stock, subject to any preferences or rights that may be granted to the holders of the Preferred Stock, shall be entitled to receive the net assets of the Corporation upon the dissolution of the Corporation.

4.

Payment. All shares of the Common Stock shall be fully paid and non-assessable.

 

Preferred Stock

 

1.

Number, Designation and Par Value. The Corporation is authorized to issue Ten Million (10,000,000) shares of "Preferred Stock," each having no par value, of which (i) 500,000 shares are designated as Series A Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock") and (ii) 200,000 shares are designated as Series B Preferred Stock (the "Series B Preferred Stock"). The Corporation’s Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each of such series to have such terms as stated or expressed in this Article III and/or in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of such series adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. Authority is hereby granted to the Board of Directors from time to time to issue the Preferred Stock in one or more series, and in connection with the creation of any such series, by resolutions or resolutions providing for the issuance of the shares thereof, to determine and fix such voting powers, multiple (i.e., each share of Preferred Stock having multiple votes while each share of common stock has a single vote) or limited, or no voting powers, and such designations, preferences, powers and relative participating, optional or other special rights and qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, including without limitation dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences, as shall be stated and expressed in such resolutions, all to the full extent now or hereafter permitted by the Utah Revised Business Corporation Act. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the resolutions providing for issuance of any series of Preferred Stock may provide that such series shall be superior or rank equally or be junior to the Preferred Stock or any other series to the extent permitted by law. No vote of the holders of the Preferred Stock or Common Stock shall be prerequisite to the issuance of any shares of any series of Preferred Stock authorized by and complying with the conditions of this Article III, the right to enjoy such vote being expressly waived by all present and future holders of the capital stock of the Corporation. The resolutions providing for issuance of any series of Preferred Stock may provide that such resolutions may be amended by subsequent resolutions adopted in the same manner as the preceding resolutions. Such resolutions shall be effective upon adoption, without the necessity of any filing with the State of Utah or otherwise. The Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock designated above (collectively, the "Series A and B Preferred Stock") have the terms, powers, preferences and rights set forth below.

2.

The Series A and B Preferred Stock:

 

(a)

Dividend Provisions. The holders of shares of the Series A and B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends, out of any assets legally available therefor, prior and in preference to any declaration or payment of any dividend (payable other than in Common Stock or other securities and rights convertible into or entitling the holder thereof to receive, directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock of the Corporation) on the Common Stock of the Corporation, at the rate of $.10 per share per annum on each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock, and at the rate of $1.90 per share per annum on each outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock, in each case, payable quarterly when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors. Such dividends shall not be cumulative.

     
(b)

Liquidation.

 

 

(i)

Preference to Holders of Series A and B Preferred Stock. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, either voluntary or involuntary, the holders of the Series A and B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Corporation to the holders of Common Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, the amount equal to the Original Purchase Price (as defined in Section 2(c) hereof; provided, however, that in the case of an acquisition deemed to be a liquidation pursuant to Section 2(b)(iii) below, the Original Purchase Price shall mean $1.30 per share with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock) for each share of Preferred Stock then held by them (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or the like with respect to such shares), plus declared but unpaid dividends. If upon the occurrence of such event, the assets and funds thus distributed among the holders of the Series A and B Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full aforesaid preferential amounts, then, the entire assets and funds of the Corporation legally available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among the holders of the Series A and B Preferred Stock in proportion to the preferential amount each such holder is otherwise entitled to receive.

 

 

(ii)

Distributions to Other Holders. Upon the completion of the distribution required by Section 2(b)(i), the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of the Series A and B Preferred Stock and the Common Stock pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by each such holder (assuming conversion of all such Series A and B Preferred Stock) until the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have received an aggregate of $6.50 per share and the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall have received an aggregate of $38.05 per share (in each case, including amounts paid pursuant to Section 2(b)(i) above); thereafter, if assets remain in the Corporation, the holders of Common Stock of the Corporation shall receive all of the remaining assets of the Corporation pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by each.

 

 

(iii)

Acquisition Deemed a Liquidation. For purposes of this Section 2(b), 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 Corporation's shareholders 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 Corporation's acquisition or sale or otherwise) hold at least 50% of the voting power of the surviving or acquiring entity; provided, however, that (i) neither the exercise of the Option nor the consummation of the Acquisition (each as defined in the Stockholders Agreement dated September 24, 1999 (the "Stockholders Agreement") by and among the Corporation, the Founders, the Series A Purchasers and the Series B Purchaser (each as defined therein)) shall be deemed liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation under this Section 2(b), and (1i) any transaction described under clauses (A) or (B) above which has gross proceeds of greater than $15,000,000 shall not be deemed liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation under this Section 2(b).

ii)

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

 

 

 

 

 

 

iii)

If there is no active public market, the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as mutually determined by the Corporation and the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of Series A and B Preferred Stock; provided, however, if such parties are unable to agree on such determination, the parties shall select a mutually acceptable nationally recognized valuation firm to determine such value.

 

 

 

 

(B)

The method of valuation of securities subject to the investment letter or other restrictions on free marketability (other than restrictions arising solely by virtue of a shareholder's status as an affiliate or former affiliate) shall be to make an appropriate discount from the market value determined as above in (A) 1); ii) or iii) to reflect the approximate fair market value thereof, as mutually determined by the Corporation and the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of Series A and B Preferred Stock; provided, however, if such parties are unable to agree on such determination, the parties shall select a mutually acceptable nationally recognized valuation firm to determine such value.

 

 

 

 

(C)

In the event the requirements of Section 2(b)(iv) are not complied with the Corporation shall forthwith either:

(c)

Conversion. The holders of the Series A and B Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows (the "Conversion Rights"):

 

 

(i)

Right to Convert. Subject to Section 2(c)(iii) below, each share of Series A and B Preferred Stock shall be convertible; at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the date of issuance of such share, at the office of the Corporation or any transfer agent for such stock into such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the Original Purchase Price by the applicable Conversion Price of such share of Series A and B Preferred Stock, determined as hereafter provided, in effect on the date the certificate is surrendered for conversion. The "Original Purchase Price” shall mean $1.00 per share with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock and $19.03 per share with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock. The "Conversion Price” shall mean $0.83 per share with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock and $19.03 per share with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock. The applicable Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment as 'set forth in Section 2(c)(iv).

 

 

(ii)

Automatic Conversion. Each share of Series A and B Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Price at the time in effect for such share immediately upon (except as provided below in Section 2(c)(iii)) the Corporation's sale of its Common Stock in a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), the public offering price of which is not less than $7.00 per share (adjusted to reflect subsequent stock dividends, stock splits or re-capitalization) and which results in aggregate cash proceeds to the Corporation of at least $10,000,000 (net of underwriting discounts and commissions).

 

 

(iii)

Mechanics of Conversion. Before any holder of Series A and B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert the same into shares of Common Stock, he shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Series A and B Preferred Stock and shall give written notice 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 and B 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. 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 and B Preferred Stock 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 may, at the option of any holder tendering Series A and B Preferred Stock for conversion, be conditioned upon the closing with the underwriters of the sale of securities pursuant to such offering, in which event the person(s) entitled to receive Common Stock upon conversion of such Series A and B Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to have converted such Series A and B Preferred Stock until immediately prior to the closing of such sale of securities.

Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. The 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 and 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 A and 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 A and B Preferred Stock, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the holder of such Series A and B Preferred Stock, the 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 the Articles of Incorporation.

Any notice required by the provisions of this Section 2(d) to be given to the holders of shares of Series A and B 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 the Corporation.

Voting Rights.

 

 

 

(i)

The holder of each share of Series A and B Preferred Stock shall have the right to one vote for each share of Common Stock into which such Series A and B Preferred Stock could then be converted and with respect to such vote, such holder shall have full voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights and Powers of the holders of Common Stock and shall be entitled, notwithstanding any provision hereof, to notice of any shareholders' meeting in accordance with the bylaws of the Corporation and shall be entitled to vote together with holders of Common Stock (in a single voting group) with respect to any question upon which holders of Common Stock have the night to vote. Fractional votes shall not, however, be permitted, and any fractional voting rights available on an as-converted basis (after aggregating all shares into which shares of Series A and B Preferred Stock held by each holder could be converted) shall be rounded to the nearest whole number (with one-half being rounded upward).

 

 

 

 

 

(ii)

The holders of shares of the Series A and B Preferred Stock (or the Common Stock into which the Series A and B Preferred Stock is convertible) shall be entitled to designate directors of the Corporation as set forth in the Stockholders Agreement. In the case of any vacancy in the office of a director designated by holders of Series A and B Preferred Stock as set forth in the Stockholders Agreement, a successor designated by the applicable holders of the Series A and B Preferred Stock shall be elected to hold office for the unexpired term of such director by the affirmative vote of the applicable holders of the Series A and B Preferred Stock (as set forth in the Stockholders Agreement), or, in the absence of action by such holders, by action of any remaining directors elected by the holders of the Series A and B Preferred Stock, if any. Any director who shall have been designated by the holders of Series A and B Preferred Stock may be removed from the Board of Directors during such director's term of office, either for or without cause by, and only by, the affirmative vote of the applicable holders of shares of Series A and B Preferred Stock (as set forth in the Stockholders Agreement); given at a special meeting of the shareholders duly called or by an action by written consent for that purpose.

 

(e)

Status of Converted Stock. In the event any shares of Preferred Stock shall be converted pursuant to Section 2(c) hereof, the shares so converted shall be canceled and shall not be issuable by the Corporation. The Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation shall be appropriately amended to effect the corresponding reduction in the Corporation’s authorized capital stock.
