"After nine months, the preferred stock is convertible at the lower of $17.95 per common share or the market price of the common stock at the time of conversion, subject to a floor."

Of course a lot depends on the floor price. But a true 'death spiral' has no floor. Also, it's going to be 9 months before the effects kick in. It is still junk equity financing. Read the 8-k when it comes out for more details.
