(4) The Series A Preferred Stock was convertible into Class A Common Stock, among other things, at the option of the Issuer or the holder at any time commencing one day following the first anniversary of the initial public offering of the Issuer and automatically following such date in connection with the effectiveness of a registration statement that permits holders of Series A Preferred Stock to sell the underlying Class A Common Stock received upon conversion, in each case, subject to all the terms and conditions as set forth in the Certificate of Designations of the Series A Preferred Stock (the "Certificate of Designations"), and was redeemable at the option of the Issuer upon certain circumstances set forth in the Certificate of Designations.
(5) Each share of Series A Preferred Stock was convertible into a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the $1,000 issue amount per share plus any accrued and unpaid dividends divided by a conversion price that is the lesser of $11.90 per share or 0.85 multiplied by the 30 day trailing price per share of the Class A Common Stock prior to the conversion date, provided that in no case would the conversion price be less than $10.50, or, in connection with certain events related to a change in control of the Issuer or Wengen Alberta, Limited Partnership (the majority shareholder of the Issuer), into a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the $1,000 issue amount per share plus any accrued and unpaid dividends divided by a conversion price equal to 0.85 multiplied by the implied equity value per share of Class A Common Stock at the closing of such transaction, in each case, subject to all other terms and conditions as set forth in the Certificate of Designations.
(6) Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock accrued at a rate of 10% per annum, payable quarterly at the Issuer's sole option, in cash or through an increase in the liquidation preference.
