Exhibit
A
CERTIFICATE
OF AMENDMENT OF
CERTIFICATE
OF INCORPORATION OF
SOURCE
FINANCIAL, INC.
The
corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware does hereby certify:
FIRST
:
That at a meeting of the Board of Directors of Source Financial, Inc., resolutions were duly adopted setting forth a proposed
amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation of said corporation, declaring said amendment to be advisable and calling a meeting
of the stockholders of said corporation for consideration thereof. The resolution setting forth the proposed amendment is as follows:
RESOLVED
,
that the Certificate of Incorporation of this corporation be amended by changing the Article thereof numbered "FOURTH"
so that, as amended, said Article shall be and read as follows:
“FOURTH:
The Corporation shall have the authority to issue up to 230,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common
Stock").
|
(A)
|
Series
B Common Stock. The Corporation is authorized to issue up to 30,000,000 shares of Series
B Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share, which shall have the following preferences,
powers, designations and other special rights:
|
1.
Designation
.
The designation of said series of Common Stock shall be Class B Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Class B Common
Stock”).
2.
Number
of Shares
. The number of shares of Class B Common Stock authorized shall be thirty million (30,000,000) shares. Each share
of Class B Common Stock shall have a stated value equal to $0.001 (as may be adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations or
splits with respect to such shares) (the “Class B Common Stock Stated Value”).
3.
Dividends
.
Subject to the preferences applicable to any series of Preferred Stock, if any, outstanding at any time, the holders of Class
A Common Stock and the holders of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to share equally, on a per share basis, in such dividends
and other distributions of cash, property or shares of stock of the Corporation as may be declared by the Board of Directors, from
time to time, with respect to the Common Stock out of assets or funds of the Corporation legally available therefor; provided,
however, that in the event that such dividend is paid in the form of shares of Common Stock or rights to acquire Common Stock,
the holders of Class A Common Stock shall receive Class A Common Stock or rights to acquire Class A Common Stock, as the case
may be, and the holders of Class B Common Stock shall receive Class B Common Stock or rights to acquire Class B Common Stock,
as the case may be.
4.
Liquidation Rights
Subject
to the preferences applicable to any series of Preferred Stock, if any outstanding at any time, in the event of the voluntary
or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, distribution of assets or winding up of the Corporation, the holders of Class A Common
Stock and the holders of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to share equally, on a per share basis, all assets of the Corporation
of whatever kind available for distribution to the holders of Common Stock.
5.
Conversion Rights
A.
Conversion Procedure
. Subject to and in compliance with the provisions of this Article IV, any shares of Class B Common
Stock may, at the option of the holder, be converted into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Class A Common Stock. The holder
of a share of Class B Common Stock may exercise its conversion right by giving a written conversion notice (the “Conversion
Notice”) (x) by email or facsimile to the Corporation confirmed by a telephone call or (y) by overnight delivery service,
with a copy by email or facsimile to the Corporation’s transfer agent for its Class A Common Stock, as designated by the
Corporation, from time to time (the “Transfer Agent”) and to its counsel, as designated by the Corporation, from time
to time. If such conversion will result in the conversion of all of such holder’s Class B Common Stock, the holder shall
also surrender the certificate for the Class B Common Stock to the Corporation at its principal office (or such other office or
agency of the Corporation may designate by notice in writing to the holder) at any time during its usual business hours on the
date set forth in the Conversion Notice.
B.
Conversion Ratio
. The number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which a holder of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled
upon a Conversion shall equal to (x) the number of shares of Class B Common Stock recited in the Conversion Notice multiplied by
(y) 2 (the “Conversion Rate”). The Corporation shall not issue any fraction of a share of Class A Common Stock upon
any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Class A Common Stock, the Corporation
shall round such fraction of a share of Class A Common Stock up to the nearest whole share. The Corporation shall pay any and
all transfer, stamp and similar taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Class A Common Stock upon
any conversion.
C.
Issuance of Certificates; Time Conversion Effected
. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected, and the “Conversion
Date” shall be deemed to have occurred, on the date on which such Conversion Notice shall have been received by the Corporation
and at the time specified stated in such Conversion Notice, which must be during the calendar day of such notice. The rights of
the holder of the Class B Common Stock shall cease, and the person or persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates
for shares of Class A Common Stock shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders
of record of the shares represented thereby, on the Conversion Date. Promptly, but in no event more than three (3) Trading Days
after the Conversion Date and surrender of the Class B Common Stock certificate (if required), the Corporation shall issue and
deliver, or the Corporation shall cause to be issued and delivered, to the holder, registered in such name or names as the holder
may direct, a certificate or certificates for the number of whole shares of Class A Common Stock into which the Class B Common
Stock has been converted. In the alternative, if the Corporation’s Transfer Agent is a participant in the electronic book
transfer program, the Transfer Agent shall credit such aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which the holder
shall be entitled to the holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Corporation. Issuance
of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion that are requested to be registered in a name other than that of the
registered holder shall be subject to compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws.
D.
Limitation
. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or elsewhere, no holder of Class B Common Stock may
exercise its conversion rights hereof unless the Company has sufficient number of authorized unissued shares of Class A Common
Stock to provide for the issuance of all shares of common stock required upon conversion of the Class B Common Stock.
6. Rank
All
shares of the Class B Common Stock shall rank (i) senior to the Corporation’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001 per
share, and any other series of capital stock of the Corporation hereafter created, except as otherwise provided in clauses (ii)
and (iii) of this Article V, (ii)
pari passu
with any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation hereafter created
and specifically ranking, by its terms, on par with the Class B Common Stock and (iii) junior to any class or series of capital
stock of the Corporation hereafter created specifically ranking, by its terms, senior to the Class B Common Stock, in each case
as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary.
7. Voting Rights
Each
one (1) share of Class B Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof, on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders
of the Corporation, to that number of votes as shall be equal to the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock into which such
holder’s shares of Class B Common Stock are convertible on the record date for the stockholder action without taking into
account potential conversions of any other convertible securities issued by the Corporation.
8. Protection Provisions
So
long as any shares of Class B Common Stock are outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without first obtaining the unanimous written
consent of the holders of Class B Common Stock alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the Class B Common Stock
so as to affect adversely the holders of Class B Common Stock.
9. Miscellaneous
A.
Status of Redeemed Stock.
In case any shares of Class B Common Stock shall be redeemed or otherwise repurchased or reacquired,
the shares so redeemed, repurchased, or reacquired shall resume the status of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock,
and shall no longer be designated as Class B Common Stock.
SECOND
:
That thereafter, pursuant to resolution of its Board of Directors, said amendment was approved by written consent of the holder
of a majority of the outstanding voting shares of the Corporation entitled to vote upon said Amendment in Lieu of a Special Meeting
of the Stockholders of said Corporation in accordance with Section 228 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.”
THIRD
:
That said amendment was duly adopted in accordance with the provisions of Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State
of Delaware.

certificate to be signed this [●] day of October 2016.
