APPENDIX  A

 

Michael Parker owns outright 7,930,891.  He also is the sole manager of Tungsten III LLC, which owns outright 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock, and as a result, Mr. Parker may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of these shares.  Mr. Parker also is the spouse of Ana Parker, who owns outright 8,039,809 shares.  Because Mr. Parker shares with Mrs. Parker the voting and dispositive power over these 8,039,809 shares, Mr. Parker may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of these shares as well.  As a result, Mr. Parker may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of a total of 20,970,700 shares.  Mr. Parker disclaims any beneficial ownership of any of the 4,687,500 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired upon the exercise of Series K Warrants (which expire August 17, 2026) held by him, as all such warrants cannot be exercised until such time as the holder would not beneficially own, after such exercise, more than 4.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that the holder may waive such ownership limitation, in which case such waiver will become effective sixty-one (61) days after the holder's delivery of such waiver notice  As of the date of this Schedule 13G, the percentage ownership limitation described in the preceding sentence has not been waived as to any Series K Warrants. Mr. Parker also disclaims any beneficial ownership of any of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants or the conversion of the Series 2 Note described in the following paragraph held by Ana Parker, for the same reasons that Mrs. Parker disclaims such ownership.   

 

Ana Parker owns outright 8,039,809 shares over which she shares voting and dispositive power with her spouse, Michael Parker.  Mrs. Parker disclaims any beneficial ownership of any shares owned by Mr. Parker outright, or that he might acquire pursuant to the Series K Warrants described in the immediately preceding paragraph, or over which Mr. Parker has sole voting or dispositive power.  Mrs. Parker also disclaims any beneficial ownership of any of the 600,000 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired upon the exercise of Series G Warrants (which expire July 2, 2023) held by her, any of the 1,230,769 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired upon the exercise of Series H Warrants (which expire May 14, 2024) held by her, any of the 3,428,571 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired upon the exercise of Series I Warrants (which expire October 18, 2024) held by her, and any of the 3,375,000 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired upon the exercise of Series J Warrants (which expire December 4, 2022) held by her as all such warrants cannot be exercised until such time as the holder would not beneficially own, after such exercise, more than 4.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that the holder may waive such ownership limitation, in which case such waiver will become effective sixty-one (61) days after the holder's delivery of such waiver notice.  As of the date of this Schedule 13G, such limitation has not been waived as to any outstanding warrants.  Mrs. Parker also disclaims any beneficial ownership of any of the 2,822,202 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the outstanding principal of and accrued interest on the Series 2 Note issued to her in November 2020, as such Note cannot be converted until such time as the holder would not beneficially own, after such conversion, more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that the holder may increase (up to 9.99%), or decrease, the preceding percentage limitation, provided that no increase will become effective until sixty-one (61) days after the holder's delivery of notice of such increase.  As of the date of this Schedule 13G, no notice of any increase in the percentage ownership limitation described in the preceding sentence has been given.   

 

The percentage ownership figures used in this filing are based on the most recently reported figure for outstanding shares contained in the Company's 10-K/A filed on December 29, 2021, which indicated that the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as of December 16, 2021 was 237,169,770.
