Pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, the authorized capital stock of
Denbury consists of 250,000,000 shares of New Common Stock and 50,000,000 shares
of preferred stock, par value
Each holder of shares of New Common Stock, as such, shall be entitled to one vote for each share of New Common Stock held of record by such holder on all matters on which stockholders generally are entitled to vote. Except as otherwise required by law or provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, at any annual or special meeting of stockholders, the New Common Stock shall have the exclusive right to vote for the election of directors and on all other matters properly submitted to a vote of the stockholders.
Subject to the rights of any then-outstanding shares of preferred stock, the holders of New Common Stock may receive such dividends as the Board may declare in its discretion out of legally available funds at any regular or special meeting. Holders of New Common Stock will share equally in Denbury's assets upon liquidation after payment or provision for all liabilities and any preferential liquidation rights of any preferred stock then outstanding. Shares of New Common Stock are not subject to any redemption provisions and are not convertible into any of Denbury's other securities.
Preferred Stock
Shares of preferred stock may be issued in one or more series from time to time, with each such series to consist of such number of shares and to have such powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, if any, as shall be stated in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of such series adopted by the Board.
It is not possible to state the actual effect of the issuance of any shares of preferred stock upon the rights of holders of Denbury's common stock until the Board determines the specific rights of the holders of the preferred stock. However, these effects might include:
• restricting dividends on the common stock;
• diluting the voting power of the common stock;
• impairing the liquidation rights of the common stock; and
• delaying or preventing a change in control of Denbury.
