The terms of the Series CC Preferred Stock are more fully described in the Certificate of Designations, Powers, Preferences and Rights relating thereto (the “Certificate of Designations”), which establishes the rights, preferences, privileges, qualifications, restrictions and limitations relating to the Series CC Preferred Stock.
