This means that if the corporation fails to declare a dividend or pays a dividend that is lower than the stated rate, the unpaid dividends will accumulate and become due in the future. Secondly, Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible. This means that holders of this stock have the option to convert their preferred shares into a predetermined number of common shares, usually at a set conversion ratio. Conversion terms may vary depending on the specific provisions outlined in the Virginia Articles Supplementary and the terms issued by the corporation.

These shares still retain the cumulative dividend feature and conversion option. It is important to note that the specific types mentioned above are not exhaustive, and the classification of Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock may vary depending on the corporation's requirements and the provisions detailed in Virginia Articles Supplementary.
