outstanding on the Closing Date shall thereupon be
converted, without any action on the part of the holder

par value ("CTC Common Stock"), (resulting in an
aggregate issuance of 1,000,000 shares of CTC Common
Stock) and 17.5 shares of Preferred Stock ("CTC
Preferred Stock") (resulting in an aggregate issuance
of 3,500 shares of CTC Preferred Stock.) The CTC
Preferred Stock shall have the designations, rights,
preferences and conditions sets forth in Section 1.6.

outstanding certificate or certificates which immediately prior

and such holder shall be entitled to receive upon such surrender

per share and shall vote along with the holders of
Common Stock as one Class;
(f) the shares of the CTC Preferred Stock shall
not be convertible;
(g) the shares shall be redeemed for cash at a
redemption price of $1,000 per share, plus accrued, but
unpaid dividends, out of funds legally available
therefor, on the later of twenty years from issuance or
