PROPOSAL
1 - AMENDMENT TO OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
TO EFFECT A REVERSE SPLIT OF SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND TO MAKE THE CORRESPONDING REDUCTION OF THE CONVERSION PRICE OF OUR SERIES
B PREFERRED STOCK
Our
Board of Directors unanimously approved and adopted, subject to stockholder approval, a reverse stock split of the Company’s Common
Stock and the corresponding reduction of the conversion price of our Series B preferred stock. Pursuant to the proposed Reverse Split,
10 outstanding shares of Common Stock will be combined and become one share of Common Stock (the “Reverse Split”) and to
reflect the Reverse Split by reducing the conversion rate of our Series B preferred stock from 10,000:1 to 1,000:1. Attached as Exhibit
A and incorporated herein by reference is the text of the Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (the Amended
Certificate”) as approved by the Majority Stockholder to effect the Reverse Split and reduction of the conversion price of our
Series B preferred stock.
As
of October 28, 2022, the Company had 1,913,446,472 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. Based on the number of
shares currently issued and outstanding, immediately following the Reverse Split the Company will have approximately 191,344,647
shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding (without giving effect to rounding for fractional shares).
The
par value of the Common Stock will not be changed nor will the number of authorized shares be reduced in connection with the Reverse
Split. The Board determined that the availability of additional shares was necessary to consummate future financing transactions or business
combinations. The availability of additional shares will also permit the Board to issue shares, or instruments convertible into or exercisable
for such shares, for general corporate purposes.
When
implemented, the Reverse Split will be realized simultaneously and in the same ratio for all shares of the Common Stock. All holders
of Common Stock will be affected uniformly by the Reverse Split, which will have no effect on the proportionate holdings of any of our
stockholders, except for possible changes due to the treatment of fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Split. In lieu of issuing
fractional shares, the Company will round up in the event a stockholder would be entitled to receive less than one share of Common Stock
as a result of the Reverse Split. In addition, the split will not affect any holder of Common Stock’s proportionate voting power
(subject to the treatment of fractional shares), and all shares of Common Stock will remain fully paid and non-assessable. The number
of authorized and issued shares of the Company’s various series of preferred stock will not be affected in any way by the Reverse
Split.
The Company filed the Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of
the State of Delaware on November 1, 2022. In accordance with the
Amendment, the Reverse Split will be effective upon the announcement of the Reverse Split in the Daily List by the Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) of such corporate action.

structure and the bottom row reflecting the post-split capital structure:

Reasons
for the Reverse Split
In
determining to authorize the Reverse Split and also to reflect the Reverse Split by reducing the Series B conversion ratio, and in light
of the foregoing, our Board of Directors considered, among other things, that in the event that the Company engages in acquisitions or
is spun out eventually fewer shares should result in a higher per share price of our Common Stock, which might heighten the interest
of the financial community in the Company, potentially broaden the pool of investors that may consider investing in the Company and facilitate
trading by our stockholders of our shares of Common Stock. In theory, the Reverse Split should cause the trading price of a share of
our Common Stock after the Reverse Split to be 10 times what it would have been if the Reverse Split had not taken place. However, this
will not necessarily be the case.
In
addition, our Board of Directors considered that as a matter of policy, many institutional investors are prohibited from purchasing stocks
below certain minimum price levels. For the same reason, brokers may be reluctant to recommend lower-priced stocks to their clients or
may discourage their clients from purchasing such stocks. Other investors may be dissuaded from purchasing lower-priced stocks because
the commissions, as a percentage of the total transaction, tend to be higher for such stocks. Our Board of Directors believes that, to
the extent that the price per share of our Common Stock remains at a higher per share price as a result of the Reverse Split, some of
these concerns may be ameliorated. The combination of lower transaction costs and increased interest from investors could also have the
effect of increasing the liquidity of the Common Stock.
In
evaluating whether or not to authorize the Reverse Split, in addition to the considerations described above, our Board of Directors also
took into account various negative factors associated with reverse stock splits. These factors include:
|
● |
the
negative perception of reverse stock splits held by some investors, analysts and other stock market participants; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the
fact that the stock price of some companies that have implemented reverse stock splits has subsequently declined back to pre-reverse
stock split levels; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
the
adverse effect on liquidity that might be caused by a reduced number of shares outstanding, and the potential concomitant downward
pressure decreased liquidity could have on the trading price. |
Also,
other factors such as our financial results, market conditions and the market perception of our business may adversely affect the market
price of our Common Stock. As a result, there can be no assurance that the price of our Common Stock would be maintained at the per share
price in effect immediately following the effective time of the Reverse Split. There also can be no assurance that the total market capitalization
of the Company following the Reverse Split will be higher than the market capitalization preceding the split or that an increase in our
trading price, if any, would be sufficient to generate investor interest.
Stockholders
should recognize that if the Reverse Split is effected, they will own a fewer number of shares than they currently own (a number equal
to the number of shares owned immediately prior to the Reverse Split divided by 10). While we expect that the Reverse Split will result
in an increase in the per share price of our Common Stock, the Reverse Split may not increase the per share price of our Common Stock
in proportion to the reduction in the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding. It also may not result in a permanent increase
in the per share price, which depends on many factors, including our performance, prospects and other factors that may be unrelated to
the number of shares outstanding. The history of similar reverse splits for companies in similar circumstances is varied.
If
the Reverse Split is effected and the per share price of our Common Stock declines, the percentage decline as an absolute number and
as a percentage of our overall market capitalization may be greater than would occur in the absence of the Reverse Split. Furthermore,
the liquidity of our Common Stock could be adversely affected by the reduced number of shares that would be outstanding after the Reverse
Split.
In
addition, the Reverse Split will likely increase the number of stockholders who own “odd lots” (stock holdings in amounts
of less than 100 shares, in this case often one share). Stockholders who hold odd lots typically will experience an increase in the cost
of selling their shares, as well as possible greater difficulty in effecting such sales. Any reduction in brokerage commissions resulting
from the Reverse Split may be offset, in whole or in part, by increased brokerage commissions required to be paid by stockholders selling
odd lots created by the split.
Finally,
following the Reverse Split the number of authorized but unissued shares of our Common Stock relative to the number of issued shares
of our Common Stock will be increased. This increased number of authorized but unissued shares of our Common Stock could be issued by
the Board without further stockholder approval, which could result in dilution to the holders of our Common Stock. The increased proportion
of unissued authorized shares to issued shares could also, under certain circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect. For example, the
issuance of a large block of Common Stock could dilute the ownership of a person seeking to effect a change in the composition of our
Board of Directors or contemplating a tender offer or other transaction. The Reverse Split is not being proposed in response to any effort
of which the Company is aware to accumulate shares of Common Stock or obtain control of the Company.
Exchange
Act Matters
Our
Common Stock is currently registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and we are
subject to the periodic reporting and other requirements of the Exchange Act. The Reverse Split, if implemented, will not affect the
registration of our Common Stock under the Exchange Act or our reporting or other requirements thereunder. Our Common Stock is currently
traded and following the Reverse Split will continue to be traded, on the OTCQB market under the symbol “HMBL”, subject to
our continued satisfaction of the OTCQB market listing requirements. Note, however, that the CUSIP number for our Common Stock
will not change in connection with the Reverse Split.
Number
of Shares of Common Stock and Number of Stockholders
The
Reverse Split would have the following effects on the number of shares of Common Stock:
1.
Each 10 shares of our Common Stock owned by a stockholder immediately prior to the Reverse Split would become one share of Common Stock
after the Reverse Split;
2.
All outstanding but unexercised options and warrants entitling the holders thereof to purchase shares of our Common Stock will enable
such holders to purchase, upon exercise of their options or warrants, one-tenth of the number of shares of our Common Stock that such
holders would have been able to purchase upon exercise of their options or warrants immediately preceding the Reverse Split, at an exercise
price equal to ten times the exercise price specified before the Reverse Split, resulting in approximately the same aggregate exercise
price being required to be paid upon exercise thereof immediately preceding the Reverse Split; and
3.
The number of shares of our Common Stock reserved for issuance (including the maximum number of shares that may be subject to options)
under our stock option plan will be reduced to one-tenth of the number of shares currently included in such plan.
Rounding
in Lieu of Issuing Fractional Shares
The
Company will not issue fractional shares in connection with the Reverse Split. Instead, the Company will round up to the nearest whole
share any stockholder’s share ownership to the extent such stockholder would be entitled to receive less than one share of Common
Stock or greater as a result of the Reverse Split.
Accounting
Matters
The
Reverse Split will not affect total stockholders’ equity on our balance sheet. However, because the par value of our Common Stock
will remain unchanged, the components that make up total stockholders’ equity will change by offsetting amounts. As a result of
the Reverse Split, the stated capital component attributable to our Common Stock will be reduced to an amount equal to one-one-tenth
of its present amount, and the additional paid-in capital component will be increased by the amount by which the stated capital is reduced.
The per share net loss and net book value per share of our Common Stock will be increased as a result of the Reverse Split because there
will be fewer shares of our Common Stock outstanding.
Procedure
for Effecting the Reverse Split, the Reduction of the Series B Preferred Conversion Ratio and Filing the Certificate of Amendment
Generally
The
Reverse Split that will be reflected in the reduction of the Series B preferred conversion ratio and the related amendment to the Certificate
of Incorporation, our Board of Directors will file the Restated Certificate effecting the Reverse Split with the Secretary of State of
the State of Delaware. The Reverse Split will become effective as of 5:00 p.m. eastern standard time on the date of filing, which time
on such date will be referred to as the “effective time.” At the effective time, each 10 shares of Common Stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the effective time will, automatically and without any further action on the part of our stockholders,
be combined into and become one share of Common Stock, subject to the treatment for fractional shares described above, and each certificate
which, immediately prior to the effective time represented pre-Reverse Split shares, will be deemed cancelled and, for all corporate
purposes, will be deemed to evidence ownership of post-Reverse Split shares. In addition, the conversion ratio of the Series B preferred
stock will be reduced from 10,000:1 to 1,000:1. However, a stockholder will not be entitled to receive any dividends or distributions
payable after the Certificate of Amendment is effective until that stockholder surrenders and exchanges his or her certificates.
Pacific
Stock Transfer Company, the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), will act as exchange agent for purposes
of implementing the exchange of stock certificates, and is sometimes referred to as the “exchange agent.” As soon as practicable
after the effective time, a letter of transmittal will be sent to stockholders of record as of the effective time for purposes of surrendering
to the exchange agent certificates representing pre-Reverse Split shares in exchange for certificates representing post-Reverse Split
shares in accordance with the procedures set forth in the letter of transmittal. No new certificates will be issued to a stockholder
until such stockholder has surrendered such stockholder’s outstanding certificate(s), together with the properly completed and
executed letter of transmittal, to the exchange agent. From and after the effective time, any certificates formerly representing pre-Reverse
Split shares which are submitted for transfer, whether pursuant to a sale, other disposition or otherwise, will be exchanged for certificates
representing post-Reverse Split shares. STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT ANY CERTIFICATE(S)
UNTIL REQUESTED TO DO SO.
In
connection with the Reverse Split, our Common Stock will not change its current CUSIP number.
Street
Name and Book-Entry Holders
Upon
the Reverse Split, the Company intends to treat shares held by stockholders in “street name”, through a bank, broker or other
nominee, in the same manner as stockholders whose shares are registered in their own names. Banks, brokers and other nominees will be
instructed to effect the Reverse Split for their beneficial holders. These brokers, banks and other nominees June have other procedures
for processing the transaction, however, and stockholders holding in street name are encouraged to ask their brokers, banks or other
nominees any questions they June have regarding such procedures.
Stockholders
who hold some or all of their shares in electronic book-entry form with the Transfer Agent do not have certificates evidencing their
ownership and need not take any action to receive their post-Reverse Split shares. Rather, a statement will be sent automatically to
any such stockholder’s address of record indicating the effects of the transaction, including the number of shares of Common Stock
held following the Reverse Split.
Certain
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
The
discussion below is only a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Split generally applicable to beneficial
holders of shares of our Common Stock and does not purport to be a complete discussion of all possible tax consequences. This summary
addresses only those stockholders who hold their pre-Reverse Split shares as “capital assets” as defined in the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and will hold the post-Reverse Split shares as capital assets. This discussion
does not address all U.S. federal income tax considerations that June be relevant to particular stockholders in light of their individual
circumstances or to stockholders that are subject to special rules, such as financial institutions, tax-exempt organizations, insurance
companies, dealers in securities, and foreign stockholders. The following summary is based upon the provisions of the Code, applicable
Treasury Regulations thereunder, judicial decisions and current administrative rulings, as of the date hereof, all of which are subject
to change, possibly on a retroactive basis. Tax consequences under state, local, foreign, and other laws are not addressed herein. Each
stockholder should consult his, her or its own tax advisor as to the particular facts and circumstances that June be unique to such stockholder
and also as to any estate, gift, state, local or foreign tax considerations arising out of the Reverse Split.
The
Reverse Split will qualify as a recapitalization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result,
|
● |
Stockholders
should not recognize any gain or loss as a result of the Reverse Split. |
|
|
|
|
● |
The
aggregate basis of a stockholder’s pre-Reverse Split shares will become the aggregate basis of the shares held by such stockholder
immediately after the Reverse Split. |
|
|
|
|
● |
The
holding period of the shares owned immediately after the Reverse Split will include the stockholder’s holding period before
the Reverse Split. |
The
above discussion is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used by any person, for the purpose of avoiding U.S. Federal tax
penalties. It was written solely in connection with the solicitation of stockholder votes with regard to a proposed reverse split of
our Common Stock
VOTING
SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS
The
column entitled “Percentage of Class” is based on 1,913,446,472 shares of common stock outstanding as of October 28,
2022. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and includes voting or investment
power with respect to our common stock. Shares of our common stock subject to options that are currently exercisable or exercisable within
60 days of October 28, 2022 are considered outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding the options for the purpose
of calculating the percentage ownership of that person but not for the purpose of calculating the percentage ownership of any other person.
Except as otherwise noted, we believe the persons and entities in this table have sole voting and investing power with respect to all
of the shares of our common stock beneficially owned by them, subject to community property laws, where applicable.

CERTIFICATE
OF AMENDMENT TO CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
STATE
OF DELAWARE
CERTIFICATE
OF AMENDMENT TO
THE
CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
OF
HUMBL,
INC.
HUMBL,
Inc. (the “Corporation”), a Delaware corporation, does hereby certify that the following amendment to the Corporation’s
Certificate of Incorporation to amend and restate Paragraph Fourth to provide for a reverse split of one share for each 10 of its issued
and outstanding shares of common stock and reduce the conversion ratio of the Series B Preferred Stock from 10,000:1 to 1,000:1 in
connection with the reverse split has been duly adopted in accordance with the provisions of Sections 228 and 242 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law, as follows:
PARAGRAPH
FOURTH
The
aggregate number of shares which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 7,450,000,000 shares of common stock, $.00001 par value
per share (“Common Stock”), and 10,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, par value $.00001 per share.
The Board of Directors is hereby expressly authorized to provide, out of the unissued shares of preferred stock, for one or more series
of preferred stock and, with respect to each such series, to fix the number of shares constituting such series and the designation of
such series, the voting powers, if any, of the shares of such series, and the preferences and relative, participating, optional, or other
special rights, if any, and any qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, of the shares of such series. The powers, preferences
and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of each series of preferred stock, and the qualifications, limitations
or restrictions thereof, if any, may differ from those of any and all other series at any time outstanding.
Reverse
Stock Split. The effective date of this reverse stock split shall be immediately upon the announcement of the reverse split in the
Daily List by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) of such corporate action (the “Effective Time”).
At the Effective Time, each 10 shares of Common Stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time
shall automatically be combined and converted, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, into one (1) share of fully paid
and nonassessable Common Stock of the Corporation (the “Reverse Stock Split”). This Reverse Stock Split shall be effected
on a certificate-by-certificate basis, and no fractional shares shall be issued as a result of this Reverse Stock Split. In lieu thereof,
the Corporation shall round up in the event a stockholder would be entitled to receive less than one (1) share of Common Stock as a result
of the Reverse Split. At the Effective Time, the conversion ratio of the Series B Preferred Stock shall automatically reduce from
10,000 shares of Common Stock for every one (1) share of Series B Preferred Stock to 1,000 shares of Common Stock for every (1) share
of Series B Preferred Stock.
|
A. |
Description
and Designation of Series A Preferred Stock. |
(1)
Designation. A total of 7,000,000 shares of the Corporation’s Preferred Stock shall be designated as “Series A Preferred
Stock”. As used herein, the term “Preferred Stock” used without reference to the Series A Preferred Stock means the
shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the shares of any series of authorized Preferred Stock of the Corporation issued and designated
from time to time by a resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors, share for share alike and without distinction as to class
or series, except as otherwise expressly provided below.
(2)
Dividends. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, out of funds legally available for that purpose,
on the same terms and conditions as that of holders of common stock, as may be declared by the Board of Directors.
(3)
Liquidation. Dissolution or Winding Up.
(a)
Treatment at Sale. Liquidation. Dissolution or Winding Up. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation,
whether voluntary or involuntary, any distribution or payment shall be made to any holders of any shares of Common Stock or any other
class or series of capital stock of the Corporation designated to be junior to the Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock, and subject
to the liquidation rights and preferences of any class or series of Preferred Stock designated to be senior to, or on a parity with,
the Series A Preferred Stock, holders of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock (defined below) and Series
C Preferred Stock (defined below) shall be entitled to be paid in cash first out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution
to holders of the Corporation’s capital stock, whether such assets are capital, surplus or earnings, an amount equal to the price
per share of Series A Preferred Stock originally paid to the Corporation by a holder, plus any and all accrued and unpaid dividends thereof
(whether or not declared). Such amounts shall be subject to equitable adjustment whenever there shall occur a stock dividend, stock split,
combination, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other similar event involving the Series A Preferred Stock and such
amount, as so determined, is referred to herein as the “Series A Liquidation Value” with respect to such shares.
(b)
Insufficient Funds. If upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding up the assets or surplus funds of the Corporation to be distributed
to the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and any other then-outstanding shares of the Corporation’s capital stock ranking
on a parity with respect to payment on liquidation with the Series A Preferred Stock, which shall include the Common Stock (such shares
being referred to herein as the “Series A Parity Stock”) shall be insufficient to permit payment to such respective holders
of the full Series A Liquidation Value and all other preferential amounts payable with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock and such
Series A Parity Stock, then the assets available for payment or distribution to such holders shall be allocated among the holders of
the Series A Preferred Stock and such Series A Parity Stock, pro rata, in proportion to the full respective preferential amounts
to which the Series A Preferred Stock and such Series A Parity Stock are each entitled.
(c)
Certain Transactions Treated as Liquidation. For purposes of this Section 3, (A) any sale, exchange, conveyance or other disposition
of the capital stock of the Corporation in a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power
of the Corporation is disposed of or shifts, (B) any acquisition of the Corporation by means of merger or other form of corporate reorganization
or consolidation with or into another corporation in which outstanding shares of the Corporation, including shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, are exchanged for securities or other consideration issued, or caused to be issued, by the other corporation or its subsidiary
and, as a result of which transaction, the stockholders of this Corporation own 50% or less of the voting power of the surviving entity
(other than a mere re-incorporation transaction), or (C) a sale, transfer or lease (other than a pledge or grant of a security interest
to a bona fide lender) of all or substantially an of the assets of the Corporation (other than to or by a majority-owned or wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Corporation), shall be treated as a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation and shall entitle the
holders of the Series A Preferred Stock to receive the amount that would be received in a liquidation, dissolution or winding up pursuant
to Section 3(a) hereof, if the holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock so elect by giving
written notice thereof to the Corporation at least three (3) business days before the effective date of such event. The Corporation will
provide the holders of Preferred Stock with notice of all transactions which are to be treated as a liquidation, dissolution or winding
up pursuant to this Section 3(c) twenty (20) days prior to the earlier of the vote relating to such transaction or the closing of such
transaction.
(d)
Distributions of Property. Whenever the distribution provided for in this Section 3 shall be payable 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,
unless the holders of 50% or more of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock request, in writing, that an independent
appraiser perform such valuation, then by an independent appraiser selected by the Board of Directors and reasonably acceptable to 50%
or more of the holders of such series of Preferred Stock.
(4)
Voting Power. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or as required by law, holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have
all voting rights of those of the holders of Corporation common stock, based on one thousand (1,000) votes of Common Stock for each one
share of Series A Preferred Stock so held.
(5)
Conversion Rights. There are no conversion rights.
(6)
Registration Rights. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to such demand and piggyback registration rights as

Corporation will, at the request of the record holders of such certificate, execute and deliver (at the Corporation’s expense)
a new certificate or certificates in exchange therefore representing the aggregate number of shares of Preferred Stock represented by
the surrendered certificate. It shall be a condition precedent to any such transfer that the Corporation shall receive an opinion of
counsel reasonably acceptable to the Corporation that such certificates may be issued (and the Preferred Stock transferred) pursuant
to an available exemption from the registration requirements of applicable state and federal securities laws. Each such new certificate
will be registered in such name and will represent such number of shares of Preferred Stock as is required by the holder of the surrendered
certificate and will be substantially identical in form to the surrendered certificate.
(8)
Replacement. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation (an affidavit of the registered holder will be
satisfactory) of the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any certificate evidencing shares of Preferred Stock,
and in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of an unsecured indemnity from the holder reasonably satisfactory
to the Corporation or, in the case of such mutilation upon surrender of such certificate, the Corporation will (at its expense) execute
and deliver in lieu of such certificate a new certificate of like kind representing the number of shares of Preferred Stock represented
by such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate and dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate.

or otherwise amend its Certificate of Incorporation or these designations without the approval by vote or written consent of the holders
of at least 70% of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class, if such corporate action
or amendment would:
(a)

or redemption rights;
(b)

transfer of capital stock or assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid
or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of the Preferred Stock set forth herein, but will at all times, in
good faith, assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order

Description and Designation of Series B Preferred Stock.
(1)
Designation. A total of 570,000 shares of the Corporation’s Preferred Stock shall be designated as “Series B Preferred
Stock”. As used herein, the term “Preferred Stock” used without reference to the Series B Preferred Stock means the
shares of Series B Preferred Stock and the shares of any series of authorized Preferred Stock of the Corporation issued and designated
from time to time by a resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors, share for share alike and without distinction as to class
or series, except as otherwise expressly provided below.

to the liquidation rights and preferences of any class or series of Preferred Stock designated to be senior to, or on a parity with,
the Series B Preferred Stock, holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid in cash first with the Series

being referred to herein as the “Series B Parity Stock”) shall be insufficient to permit payment to such respective holders
of the full Series B Liquidation Value and all other preferential amounts payable with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock and such
Series B Parity Stock, then the assets available for payment or distribution to such holders shall be allocated among the holders of
the Series B Preferred Stock and such Series B Parity Stock, pro rata, in proportion to the full respective preferential amounts
to which the Series B Preferred Stock and such Series B Parity Stock are each entitled.

appraiser perform such valuation, then by an independent appraiser selected by the Board of Directors and reasonably acceptable to 50%
