Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
 
 
On January 15, 2010, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation by filing a Certificate of Designation with the State of Michigan for the purpose of establishing the preferences, limitations, voting powers and relative rights of its newly authorized Series C Noncumulative Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”). The Certificate of Designation became effective with the State of Michigan upon filing.
 
 
The number of authorized shares of Series C Preferred Stock is 4,000, with no par value and a liquidation value of $1,000 per share.  The Series C Preferred Stock can be converted into common stock of the Company at any time during the first 24 months following the holders acquisition of the Series C Preferred Stock from the Company at a conversion price of $5.00 per share of common stock and at conversion price $7.50 per share of common stock thereafter, subject to adjustment and certain limitations, as described below.
 
 
No dividends are payable with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock and no holder will be entitled to receive any dividends thereon.  The Series C Preferred Stock ranks, with respect to rights upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, senior to the Company’s common stock and on parity with the Company’s Series A and Series B preferred stock.  The Series C Preferred Stock is not redeemable by the holders or the Company.
 
 
No holder of Series C Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive shares of common stock upon conversion to the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt would cause such converting holder to become, directly or indirectly, a “beneficial owner” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) of more than 19.9% of the voting power of the Company following such conversion, unless the Company obtains the requisite shareholder approval under NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. Additionally, no holder of Series C Preferred Stock will be permitted to receive common stock upon conversion of its Series C Preferred Stock to the extent such conversion would cause such holder to beneficially own more than 9.9% of the Company’s common stock outstanding at such time.
 
 
Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock generally will not have any voting rights, except that the consent of the holders of a majority of the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, consenting as a separate class, will be necessary to: (i) enter any agreement, contract or understanding or otherwise incur any obligation which by its terms would violate or be in conflict in any material respect with the rights or preferences of the Series C Preferred Stock; (ii) amend the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the Company, if such amendment would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely; or (iii) amend or waive any provision in the Certificate of Designation of the Series C Preferred Stock.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consent of the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock will not be necessary to authorize or issue, or obligate the Company to issue, any senior stock, parity stock or additional Series C Preferred Stock, or right convertible or exchangeable for senior stock, parity stock or additional Series C Preferred Stock.
