In pursuing their investment purposes, the Reporting Persons may, subject to applicable law and the agreement disclosed in this Statement on Schedule 13D, further purchase, hold, vote, trade, dispose or otherwise deal in the securities of the Issuer at times, and in such manner, as they deem advisable to benefit from changes in market prices of such securities, changes in the Issuer’s operations, business strategy or prospects, or from potential acquisitions made by the Issuer. To evaluate such alternatives, the Reporting Persons will routinely monitor the Issuer’s operations, prospects, business development, management, competitive and strategic matters, capital structure, and prevailing market conditions, as well as alternative investment opportunities, liquidity requirements of the Reporting Persons and other investment considerations.
Consistent with their investment purpose, the Reporting Persons may, subject to applicable law and the terms of any confidentiality agreement with the Issuer, engage in communications regarding such matters with members of management and the Board of Directors of the Issuer, other current or prospective shareholders, industry analysts, existing or potential strategic partners or competitors, investment and financing professionals, sources of credit and other investors. Such factors and discussions may materially affect, and result in, the Reporting Persons, subject to applicable law, modifying their ownership of securities of the Issuer, exchanging information with the Issuer, proposing changes in the Issuer’s operations, governance or capitalization, or in proposing one or more of the other actions described in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
In addition, the Reporting Persons reserve the right to formulate other plans and/or make other proposals, and take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer, including any or all of the actions set forth in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, or acquire additional securities of the Issuer or dispose of all the securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by them, in public market or privately negotiated transactions. The Reporting Persons may at any time reconsider and change their plans or proposals relating to the foregoing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Reporting Persons shall have the right to designate a number of directors to the Issuer’s Board of Directors equal to a percentage determined by the number of shares of Preferred Stock (determined on an “as converted” basis) divided by the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding plus the number of Preferred Shares outstanding as determined on an as converted basis. By way of example only, if the number of Preferred Shares owned by the Reporting Persons represents 20% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and Preferred Shares (as determined on an as converted basis), the Reporting Persons shall, through their ownership of Preferred Shares, have the right to designate one director of a five member board. The Reporting Persons’ percentage to designate a number of directors shall be determined each time the Reporting Persons make a purchase of Preferred Shares and cannot be decreased unless the Reporting Persons convert or sell all or part of their Preferred Shares, in which case the number of directors that the Reporting Persons may designate will be re-calculated.
