(ii) If the Company fails to declare and pay for four consecutive Dividend Periods dividends on the Preference Shares that are payable pursuant to Section 4(b) (whether as a result of an event specified in Section 4(d) or otherwise), thereafter and until such time as the Company has declared and paid all such accrued dividends, the holders of a majority of the Preference Shares entitled to the rights set forth in Section 2 of the Shareholders Agreement (the “Designating Holders”) shall be entitled to designate one director to the Board of Directors (in addition to any other rights to elect persons to the Board of Directors that the holders of Preference Shares may have), subject to the receipt or making by such holders of any regulatory approvals or regulatory filings under applicable laws. For each additional Dividend Period for which dividends on the Preference Shares are not declared or paid pursuant to Section 4(b), the Designating Holders shall be entitled to designate one additional director for appointment to the Board of Directors, subject to the receipt or making by such holders of any regulatory approvals or regulatory filings under applicable laws. If at any time and from time to time, following the appointment of any such person(s) to the Board of Directors pursuant to this Section 4(e)(ii) and the subsequent resignation of such person(s) pursuant to Section 4(e)(iii), the Company fails to declare and pay for any Dividend Period dividends on the Preference Shares that are payable pursuant to Section 4(b) (whether as a result of an event specified in Section 4(d) or otherwise), such number of persons previously designated to the Board of Directors by the Designating Holders pursuant to this Section 4(e)(ii) shall be re-appointed to the Board of Directors and the Designating Holders shall be entitled, for such Dividend Period and each subsequent Dividend Period for which dividends are not declared and paid, to designate one additional director for appointment to the Board of Directors, subject in each case to the receipt or making by such holders of any regulatory approvals or regulatory filings under applicable laws.

Subject to applicable law, any dividend payment unclaimed for a period of six years from the date of declaration of such dividend shall be forfeited and shall revert to the Company, and the payment by the Board of Directors of any unclaimed dividend or other sum payable on or in respect of the share into a separate account will not make the Company a trustee thereof.

If on the Redemption Date, the assets of the Company legally available are insufficient to pay the full Redemption Price or Liquidation Price, as applicable, for the total number of Preference Shares to be redeemed, then the Company shall, subject to it not being prohibited by then-applicable law, (i) take all commercially appropriate action reasonably within its means to maximize the assets legally available for paying such amount, (ii) redeem out of all such assets legally available therefor on the Redemption Date the maximum possible number of Preference Shares that it can redeem on such date, pro rata among the holders of such Preference Shares to be redeemed in proportion to the aggregate number of Preference Shares to be redeemed by each such holder on the Redemption Date, and (iii) pay any remainder of the Redemption Price or Liquidation Price in Common Shares as provided in this Section 6.

(h) Remedies for Nonpayment.

(i) If on the Redemption Date, all of the Preference Shares to be redeemed pursuant to a Redemption Notice are not redeemed in full by the Company by paying the entire Redemption Price or Liquidation Price, as applicable, until such Preference Shares are fully redeemed and the aggregate Redemption Price or Liquidation Price, as applicable, is paid in full, (i) all of the unredeemed Preference Shares shall remain outstanding and continue to have the rights, preferences and privileges expressed herein, including the accrual and accumulation of dividends thereon as provided in Section 4(a) and Section 4(b) and (ii) the Company shall owe an amount equal to (A) 125% of all amounts due pursuant to this Section 6 (including, without limitation, the aggregate Redemption Price or Liquidation Price, as applicable) that have not yet been paid plus (B) interest on such amount that shall accrue daily in arrears at a rate equal to twelve (12%) per annum, compounded quarterly. For so long as such amounts are due and have not been paid in full, the Company shall not declare or pay any dividends on the Common Shares or any other Junior Shares.

(ii) If any Preference Shares to be redeemed pursuant to a Redemption Notice have not been redeemed in full by the Company by paying (in cash or Common Shares) all amounts due pursuant to Section 6(h)(i), within ninety (90) days of when due, the Designating Holders shall be entitled to designate such number of persons for appointment to the Board of Directors that would represent at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the total number of directors comprising the Board of Directors (after giving effect to their appointments) (in addition to any other rights to elect persons to the Board of Directors that the holders of Preference Shares may have), subject to the receipt or making by such holders of any regulatory approvals or regulatory filings under applicable laws. Promptly after receipt by the Company of notice by the Designating Holders designating such persons to the Board of Directors pursuant to this Section 6(h)(ii) (together with, for each such designee (1) an executed irrevocable letter of resignation in a form satisfactory to the Company pursuant to which such designee shall resign from the Board of Directors effective concurrently with the remedy of the failure to pay giving rise to such designee’s appointment, (2) an executed and completed questionnaire in the form customarily provided to directors of the Company and (3) any additional information about such designee that the Company may reasonably request), the Board of Directors shall act to increase the size of the Board of Directors and to appoint such each such designee to the Board of Directors; provided that, if the appointment of any such designee would cause the Board of Directors to be comprised of less than a majority of Independent Directors (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement), then such designee shall be an Independent Director.

(i) Surrender of Certificates. On or before the Redemption Date, each holder of Preference Shares shall surrender the certificate or certificates representing such Preference Shares to the Company, in the manner and place designated in the Redemption Notice, accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer relating thereto, or, in the event the certificate or certificates are lost, stolen or missing, shall deliver an indemnity, in the manner and place designated in the Redemption Notice. Each surrendered certificate shall be canceled and retired and the Company; provided, that if less than all the Preference Shares represented by a surrendered certificate are redeemed, then a new share certificate representing the unredeemed Preference Shares shall be issued in the name of the applicable holder of record of the canceled share certificate.

(j) Procedures for Cashless Redemption. In the event of any Cashless Redemption, upon the surrender of such certificate(s) and accompanying materials, the Company shall as promptly as practicable (but in any event within ten (10) days thereafter) cause the transfer agent for the Common Shares to deliver to the relevant holder a certificate or make a book entry notation in such holder’s name (or the name of such holder’s designee as stated in the written election) for the number of Common Shares to which such holder shall be entitled upon a Cashless Redemption of the applicable Preference Shares.

(k) Rights Subsequent to Redemption. If on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price or Liquidation Price, as applicable, is paid (or tendered for payment) for any of the Preference Shares to be redeemed on such Redemption Date, regardless of whether certificate(s) and accompanying materials have been surrendered pursuant to Section 6(i), then on such date all rights of the holder in the Preference Shares so redeemed and paid or tendered, including any rights to dividends on such Preference Shares, shall cease, and such Preference Shares shall no longer be deemed issued and outstanding. Any redemption of Preference Shares under this Section 6 shall not be taken as reducing the amount of the Company’s authorized share capital.

Section 7. Conversion.

(a) Automatic Conversion. If (i) (x) the daily volume weighted average price per Common Share as reported on the Nasdaq Stock Market (or any national securities exchange on which the Common Shares are then listed) for the trading days during a period of 30 consecutive days (provided that such volume weighted average price shall exclude the effects of any purchase or sale of Common Shares by the Company, CMIG International or their respective Affiliates and any number of Common Shares which the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, General Counsel or any Independent Director of the Company has actual knowledge was purchased or sold by a direct shareholder of CMIG International or China Minsheng Investment Co., Ltd. during such period aggregating to more than 1% of the then-outstanding Common Shares, plus (y) the aggregate per share amounts of all dividends and distributions paid on the Common Shares since the Issue Date (other than dividends or distributions payable in the form of Common Shares), in each case, subject to adjustment as applicable for any subdivision (by any share split, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by combination, reverse share split or otherwise) or dividend or distribution in the form of Common Shares, equals or exceeds an amount equal to 1.40 multiplied by the Conversion Price and (ii) on the last day of such period, the Conversion Shares represent 25% or less of the Public Float (the occurrence of clause (i) and (ii), the “Mandatory Conversion Event”), then, in accordance with and subject to Section 7(c), each outstanding Preference Share shall convert into that number of Common Shares as is determined by dividing (x) the Issue Price by (y) the applicable Conversion Price then in effect (such ratio, the “Conversion Ratio”), and such holder shall be entitled to receive a sum in cash equal to any accrued and unpaid cash dividends as of the date of such Mandatory Conversion Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any proposed Qualified Sale Transaction (as such term is defined in the Shareholders Agreement) has been approved by a majority of the Independent Directors on the Board of Directors in accordance with Section 4(a) of the Shareholders Agreement, then no Mandatory Conversion Event shall occur during the period beginning from the date of such approval and ending on the date of consummation of such Qualified Sale Transaction or, if earlier, the date that the definitive agreement relating to such Qualified Sale Transaction is terminated, and the 30 consecutive day period calculated pursuant to Section 7(a)(i)(x) shall not include any day within that period, but shall be tolled during the pendency of that period.

(b) Optional Conversion. At the option of any holder of Preference Shares, such holder may elect, by notice to the Company from time to time prior to the occurrence of any Mandatory Conversion Event (such notice, a “Conversion Election Notice”), to cause the Company to convert any or all of such holder’s Preference Shares into that number of Common Shares as is determined by multiplying the number of Preference Shares subject to such conversion by the Conversion Ratio then in effect on the date of the Conversion Election Notice, and such holder shall be entitled to receive a sum in cash equal to any accrued and unpaid cash dividends as of the date of the Optional Conversion Event. The Conversion Election Notice shall specify the number of Preference Shares held by such holder that shall be converted, which shall be no fewer than 1,000 Preference Shares or all of such holder’s Preference Shares if less.

(c) Procedures for Mandatory Conversion. Within five (5) Business Days after the Mandatory Conversion Event, the Company shall send each holder of Preference Shares written notice of such event (the “Mandatory Conversion Notice”), which shall include a reasonably detailed explanation of the Company’s calculation of the number of Conversion Shares issuable pursuant thereto. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Mandatory Conversion Notice, any holder may send written notice to the Company of its objection to any of the Company’s calculations (an “Objection Notice”), and the Company and the holders of the Preference Shares shall work together in good faith to resolve such dispute within five (5) Business Days. If such dispute has not been resolved by the parties within such five (5) Business Days, the parties shall appoint an independent accounting firm mutually agreed by them to make a determination, which shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest or mathematical error. No later than ten (10) Business Days after the date of the Mandatory Conversion Notice or, if any holder has delivered an Objection Notice, five (5) Business Days after such dispute has been resolved in accordance with the foregoing provisions (unless, after delivery of an Objection Notice the parties or such independent accounting firm have determined that a Mandatory Conversion Event has not occurred), each holder shall surrender to the Company the certificate or certificates representing the Preference Shares held by such holder accompanied by duly executed instrument of transfer relating thereto or, in the event the certificate or certificates are lost, stolen or missing, accompanied by an indemnity executed by the holder. Upon the surrender of such certificate(s) and accompanying materials, the Company shall as promptly as practicable (but in any event within ten (10) days thereafter) cause the transfer agent for the Common Shares to deliver to the relevant holder a certificate or make a book entry notation in such holder’s name (or the name of such holder’s designee as stated in the written election) for the number of Common Shares to which such holder shall be entitled upon conversion of the applicable Preference Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Certificate of Designation to the contrary, if the Company delivers a Mandatory Conversion Notice pursuant to this Section 7(c), each holder shall be entitled to first exercise its conversion right pursuant to Section 7(b), or at its option, its redemption right pursuant to Section 6 before any such conversion by the Company.

(d) Procedures for Optional Conversion. Within five (5) Business Days after a holder of Preference Shares delivers to the Company a Conversion Election Notice, the Company shall send such holder a reasonably detailed explanation of the Company’s calculation of the number of Conversion Shares issuable pursuant thereto. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Company’s calculation, such holder may send an Objection Notice, and the Company and such holder shall work together in good faith to resolve such dispute within five (5) Business Days. If such dispute has not been resolved by the parties within such five (5) Business Days, the parties shall appoint an independent accounting firm mutually agreed by them to make a determination, which shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest or mathematical error. No later than ten (10) Business Days after the date of the Conversion Election Notice or, if such holder has delivered an Objection Notice, five (5) Business Days after such dispute has been resolved in accordance with the foregoing provisions, each holder shall surrender to the Company, in the manner and place designated by the Company, the certificate or certificates representing the Preference Shares held by such holder subject to such conversion accompanied by duly executed instrument of transfer relating thereto or, in the event the certificate or certificates are lost, stolen or missing, accompanied by an indemnity executed by the holder; provided, that if less than all the Preference Shares represented by a surrendered certificate are to be converted, then a new share certificate representing the remaining Preference Shares shall be issued in the name of the applicable holder of record of the canceled share certificate. Upon the surrender of such certificate(s) and accompanying materials, the Company shall as promptly as practicable (but in any event within ten (10) days thereafter) cause the transfer agent for the Common Shares to deliver to the relevant holder a certificate or make a book entry notation in such holder’s name (or the name of such holder’s designee as stated in the written election) for the number of Common Shares to which such holder shall be entitled upon conversion of the applicable Preference Shares.

(e) Rights Subsequent to Conversion. All Preference Shares converted as provided in this Section 7, regardless of whether certificate(s) and accompanying materials have been surrendered pursuant to Section 7(c) or Section 7(d), shall no longer be deemed outstanding as of the effective time of the applicable conversion and all rights with respect to such Preference Shares shall immediately cease and terminate as of such time (including, without limitation, any right of redemption pursuant to Section 6), other than the right of the holder to receive Common Shares and payment in lieu of any fraction of a Common Share in exchange therefor.

(f) Limit on Conversion.

(i) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall not effect any Cashless Redemption pursuant to Section 6 or any conversion pursuant to this Section 7 with respect to any holder of Preference Shares to the extent that, after giving effect to such conversion, such holder (together with such holder’s affiliates and any other Person acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder’s affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of 19.99% of the outstanding Common Shares, unless the Company obtains such approval as may be required by the applicable rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market (or any national securities exchange on which the Common Shares are then listed) from the shareholders of the Company with respect to the issuance of Common Shares resulting in the beneficial ownership by such holder (and such holder’s affiliates and any other Persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder’s affiliates) of in excess of 19.99% of the outstanding Common Shares. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of Common Shares beneficially owned by such holder and its affiliates shall include the number of Conversion Shares represented by such holder’s and its affiliates’ Preference Shares, but shall exclude the number of Common Shares that would be issuable upon exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other securities of the Company or its Subsidiaries that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Shares) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by such holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 7(f), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In addition, for purposes of this Section 7(f), “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Any determination of whether the limitation contained in this Section 7(f)(i) applies shall be in the sole discretion of the Company.

(ii) In addition, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall not effect any Cashless Redemption pursuant to Section 6 or any conversion pursuant to this Section 7 with respect to any holder of Preference Shares to the extent that such conversion and the resulting issuance of Common Shares requires any regulatory approval or regulatory filing under applicable insurance laws, unless such holder obtains such approval or makes such regulatory filing prior to any such conversion and issuance. Any determination of whether the limitation contained in this Section 7(f)(ii) applies shall be in the sole discretion of the Company.

(g) No Charge or Payment. The issuance of certificates for Common Shares upon conversion of Preference Shares pursuant to Section 7 shall be made without payment of additional consideration by, or other charge to, the holder in respect thereof.

(h) No Conversion after Redemption. From and after the occurrence of any Redemption Event with respect to any Preference Shares pursuant to Section 6, the conversion rights described herein of the Preference Shares designated for redemption shall cease and be of no further force or effect, unless the Redemption Price or Liquidation Price, as applicable, is not fully paid on such redemption date, in which case the conversion rights for such Preference Shares shall continue until such price is paid in full.

(i) Adjustment to Conversion Price and Number of Conversion Shares. In order to prevent dilution of the conversion rights granted under this Section 7, the Conversion Price and the number of Conversion Shares issuable on conversion of the Preference Shares shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 7(i).

(i) If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date, (A) pay a dividend or make any other distribution upon the Common Shares or other Junior Shares payable in Common Shares, other Junior Shares or any other equity or equity equivalent securities of the Company or (B) subdivide (by any share split, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to any such dividend, distribution or subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Preference Shares shall be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time combines (by combination, reverse share split or otherwise) its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Preference Shares shall be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 7(i) shall be calculated in good faith by the Company and become effective at the close of business on the date the dividend, subdivision or combination becomes effective. The Company may in its sole discretion, but shall not be required to, make such decreases in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by this Section 7(i), as the Company considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders any other class of shares of the Company resulting from any dividend or distribution of shares or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for shares or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reason.

(ii) In the event of any (A) capital reorganization of the Company, (B) reclassification of the shares of the Company (other than a change in par value or as a result of a share dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of shares), (C) consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Company with or into another Person, (D) sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s consolidated assets to another Person or (E) other similar transaction (other than any such transaction covered by this Section 7(i)) (each, a “Fundamental Transaction”), in each case which entitles the holders of Common Shares to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) shares, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Shares, then each Preference Share shall, immediately after such Fundamental Transaction, be exercisable for the kind and number of shares or other securities or assets of the Company or of the successor Person resulting from such Fundamental Transaction to which such Preference Share would have been entitled upon such Fundamental Transaction if the Preference Share had been converted in full immediately prior to the time of such Fundamental Transaction and acquired the applicable number of Conversion Shares then issuable hereunder as a result of such conversion; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made with respect to such holder’s rights under this Certificate of Designation to insure that the ranking and senior nature of the securities and the provisions of this Section 7 shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as possible, to the Preference Shares in relation to any shares, securities or assets thereafter acquirable upon conversion of Preference Shares hereunder (including, in the case of any Fundamental Transaction in which the successor or purchasing Person is other than the Company, an immediate adjustment in the Conversion Price to the value per share for the Common Shares reflected by the terms of such Fundamental Transaction, and a corresponding immediate adjustment to the number of Conversion Shares acquirable upon conversion of the Preference Shares without regard to any limitations or restrictions on conversion, if the value so reflected is less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction). The provisions of this Section 7(k) shall similarly apply to successive Fundamental Transactions. The Company shall not effect any such Fundamental Transaction unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, sale or similar transaction, shall assume, by written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Certificate of Designation, the obligation to deliver to the holders of Preference Shares such shares, securities or assets which, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holders shall be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Preference Shares.

(j) Notice of Adjustment. As promptly as reasonably practicable following any adjustment of the Conversion Price, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days thereafter, the Company shall furnish to each holder of record of Preference Shares at the address specified for such holder in the books and records of the Company (or at such other address as may be provided to the Company in writing by such holder) a certificate of an executive officer setting forth in reasonable detail such adjustment and the facts upon which it is based and certifying the calculation thereof.

(k) Other Notices. In the event: (i) that the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Shares (or other shares or securities at the time issuable upon conversion of the Preference Shares) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution upon the Common Shares payable in Common Shares, other Junior Shares or any other equity or equity equivalent securities of the Company, to vote at a meeting (or by written consent) or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of any class or any other securities or (ii) of any Fundamental Transaction, the Company shall send or cause to be sent to each holder of record of Preference Shares in the books and records of the Company (or at such other address as may be provided to the Company in writing by such holder) at least thirty (30) days prior to the applicable record date or the applicable expected effective date, as the case may be, for the event, a written notice specifying, as the case may be, (A) the record date for such dividend, distribution, meeting or consent or other right or action, and a description of such dividend, distribution or right or action to be taken at such meeting or by written consent or (B) the effective date on which such Fundamental Transaction is proposed to take place, and the date, if any is to be fixed, as of which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken with respect to which the holders of record of Common Shares (or such other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon conversion of the Preference Shares) shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares (or such other capital stock or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such Fundamental Transaction, and the amount per share and character of such exchange applicable to the Preference Shares and the Conversion Shares.

Section 8. Voting Rights.

(a) General. Each Preference Share shall have voting power equal to the number of Common Shares into which it is then convertible pursuant to Section 7 as of the record date of such vote or written consent or, if there is no specified record date, as of the date of such vote or written consent, and, except as otherwise provided herein or required by law, the Preference Shares and Common Shares shall vote together as a single class with respect to any and all matters presented to the shareholders of the Company for their action or consideration (whether at a meeting of shareholders of the Company, by written resolutions of shareholders of the Company in lieu of a meeting, or otherwise).

(b) Voting on Variations of Rights. Notwithstanding the Bye-Laws, without the prior affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Preference Shares voting separately as a single class with one vote per Preference Share, the Company shall not (i) amend, alter or repeal the Memorandum of Association or Bye-Laws or any organizational documents of any Subsidiary of the Company, (ii) enter into any transaction with any related person (within the meaning of Item 404 of Regulation S-K), other than any such transaction contemplated by this Certificate of Designation, the Subscription Agreements or the Shareholders Agreement or any such transaction that is approved in accordance with the Company’s Related Person Transactions Policy or (iii) amend, alter or repeal the Company’s Related Person Transactions Policy, in each case, in a manner that would adversely affect the rights, preferences and powers of the holders of Preference Shares or Conversion Shares (it being understood that (x) any amendment, alteration or repeal of the Memorandum of Association or Bye-Laws of the Company in order to effect the provisions of this Certificate of Designation or (y) any amendment or alteration of the Company’s Related Person Transactions Policy in order to reflect the provisions of Item 404 of Regulation S-K as it may be amended by the Commission after the Issue Date shall not be deemed to adversely affect the rights, preference and powers of the holders of Preference Shares or Conversion Shares).

(c) Termination of Voting Rights. This Section 8 will not apply if, at or prior to the record date of such vote or written consent, all outstanding Preference Shares shall have been redeemed in accordance with Section 6 or converted into Common Shares in accordance with Section 7.

Section 9. Amendments or Modifications; Waiver.

(a) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Board of Directors may modify the terms of this Certificate of Designation without the consent of any holder of Preference Shares for any of the following purposes:

(i) to evidence the succession of another person to the Company’s obligations;

(ii) to add to the covenants for the benefit of the holders of the Preference Shares or to surrender any of the Company’s rights or powers under the Preference Shares;

(iii) to cure any ambiguity to correct or supplement any provisions that may be inconsistent; provided that such action shall not adversely affect the interest of the holders of the Preference Shares; or

(iv) to make any other provision with respect to such matters or questions arising under this Certificate of Designation which the Company may deem desirable and which shall not adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Preference Shares, including with respect to the matters set forth in Section 2(z).

(b) Except as provided in Section 9(c), this Certificate of Designation may be amended, modified or supplemented, and noncompliance in any particular instance with any provision of this Certificate of Designation or the Preference Shares may be waived, in each case with the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of at least a majority of the Preference Shares then outstanding, including any modification occurring in connection with any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of the Company or otherwise.

(c) The Board of Directors may, subject to the prior written consent or the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the Preference Shares, amend the terms of this Certificate of Designation or the rights, powers, preferences and privileges of the holders of the Preference Shares; provided, that no such amendment shall, without the consent of the holder of each outstanding Preference Share affected by the amendment:

(i) change any Quarterly Dividend Date;

(ii) reduce the rate of dividends payable pursuant to Section 4(b);

(iii) reduce the Redemption Price or Liquidation Price;

(iv) increase the Conversion Price or the Issue Price;

(v) change the place or currency of payment, which shall be in U.S. Dollars;

(vi) change the percentage of the Preference Shares whose holders must approve any amendment or modification; or

(vii) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of this Certificate of Designation.

Section 10. Reservation of Shares; Status of Shares; Fractional Shares.

(a) Reservation of Shares. The Company shall at all times when any Preference Shares are outstanding (i) reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the conversion of the Preference Shares, such number of Common Shares that may be issuable from time to time upon the redemption of all outstanding Preference Shares pursuant to Section 6 or the conversion of all outstanding Preference Shares pursuant to Section 7 and (ii) authorize for issuance and take all actions necessary to cause the issuance of any such Common Shares issuable pursuant to Section 6 or Section 7. The Company shall take all such actions (including but not limited to receiving any permissions or declarations of no objection from the Bermuda Monetary Authority) as may be necessary to assure that all such Common Shares may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which Common Shares may be listed (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such issuance).

(b) Status of Shares. All Common Shares issued hereunder by the Company shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all taxes, liens, charges and encumbrances with respect to the issuance thereof (other than those arising under state or federal securities laws).

(c) Fractional Shares. No fractional Common Shares will be issued hereunder. In lieu of any fractional shares that would otherwise be issuable, the Company shall pay the holder an amount of cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the closing price of one Common Share as reported on the principal securities exchange for the Common Shares on the date of the applicable Cashless Redemption, Mandatory Conversion Event or Optional Conversion Event, as applicable.

Section 11. Preemptive and Other Rights.

(a) Except as set forth in this Section 11, holders of the Preference Shares shall not have any rights of preemption whatsoever as to any securities of the Company, or any warrants, rights or options issued or granted with respect thereto, regardless of how such securities, or such warrants, rights or options, may be designated, issued or granted.

(b) If the Company proposes to issue and sell any Senior Shares or Parity Shares, in each case that are convertible into Common Shares, then the Company shall, by notice to each holder of Preference Shares, offer to sell to such holder (such offer, an “Offer to Sell”), on the same terms and conditions, such Senior Shares or Parity Shares on a pro rata basis in proportion to the percentage of Preference Shares held by such holder. The Offer to Sell shall include: (i) the date of the anticipated sale, which date shall be at least ten (10) Business Days after the Offer to Sell (the “Sale Date”), (ii) the terms of such Senior Shares or Parity Shares, (iii) the number or amount of such Senior Shares or Parity Shares being offered to such holder and (iv) the price per Senior Share or Parity Share (the “Sale Price”). In order to accept the Offer to Sell, such holder shall notify the Company no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date that is nine (9) Business Days after the date of the Offer to Sell (the “Offer Acceptance Notice”). A failure by such holder to accept the Offer to Sell within the specified time period or to pay the Sale Price to the Company in immediately available funds on the Sale Date shall in either case be deemed to constitute a rejection of such offer by such holder, and the Company may thereafter complete the issuance and sale of such Senior Shares or Parity Shares on the terms specified in the Offer to Sell without the participation of such holder. If so indicated in its Offer Acceptance Notice, any accepting holder shall be entitled to purchase, on a pro rata basis with each other accepting holder of Preference Shares that so indicated, Senior Shares or Parity Shares subject to a rejected Offer to Sell.

(c) Issuances of Senior Shares or Parity Shares. From and after the Issue Date and other than the Preference Shares, the Company will not, without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Preference Shares, issue any Senior Shares or Parity Shares if the aggregate gross proceeds of which (together with all other such Senior Shares and Parity Shares) equal or exceed $100 million.

(d) Certain Other Rights and Protections. In addition to the rights granted to the Preference Shares and the holders thereof pursuant to this Certificate of Designation, the Preference Shares shall be entitled to the benefits of any rights attaching to the Common Shares generally, including, without limitation, the right to participate in any rights offerings.

Section 12. Miscellaneous.

(a) Withholding Taxes. In the event that the Company or its agent determines that they are obligated to withhold or deduct any tax or other governmental charge under any applicable law on behalf of a holder of Preference Shares, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, the Company or its agent shall be entitled, but not obligated, to deduct and withhold such amount by withholding any property (including, without limitation, Common Shares or cash) that would otherwise be delivered to or is owned by such holder, in each case in such amounts as is required to meet the withholding obligations, and shall also be entitled, but not obligated, to sell all or a portion of such withheld property by public or private sale in such amounts and in such manner as they deem necessary and practicable to pay such taxes and charges. Any amount or property withheld in accordance with this section shall be treated for all purposes of this Certificate of Designation as having been paid to the holder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(b) Limitations on Transfer and Ownership. The holders of Preference Shares shall be subject to the limitations on transfer and ownership contained in the Subscription Agreements and the Bye-laws.

(i) Within ten (10) days following the filing by the Company of any Form 10-Q or Form 10-K with the Commission, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Preference Shares its then-current calculation of the Conversion Price and the Redemption Price.

(ii) At the request of any holder of Preference Shares (which each holder may make up to four times per calendar year), the Company shall, within five (5) days of receipt of any such request, provide such holder with the calculation most recently delivered pursuant to Section 12(c)(i).
