Except as required by Nevada law or otherwise provided in the Company’s Certificate of Designation of Rights, Preferences and Privileges of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”), the A Shares shall vote as common stock on an as-converted basis with the Company’s then outstanding common stock.
