Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.  
     

 

 

On August 5, 2022, the Issuer completed an initial offering of a Future Advance Convertible Promissory Note (the "Note"). The Note is convertible into Shares based upon the sum of (i) the portion of the principal of the Note to be converted, redeemed or otherwise with respect to which the determination is being made and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such principal of the Note. The Reporting Persons are subject to a limitation on their conversion of the Note, whereby after giving effect to such conversion or other share issuance, the Reporting Persons (together with the Reporting Persons’ affiliates, and any other persons acting as a group together with the Reporting Persons or any of the Reporting Persons’ affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or upon election of the Reporting Persons, 9.99%) of the Issuer (the “Maximum Percentage”). The foregoing description of the Note does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Future Advance Convertible Promissory Note included as Exhibit 4.1 of the Issuer's 8-K filed on August 8, 2022, which is incorporated by reference. On August 10, 2022, the Reporting Persons entered into an agreement with the Issuer, whereby effective from the date of the issuance of the Note, the Reporting Persons irrevocably waived their ability to elect, and agreed that they shall not permit any of their affiliates and any other persons acting as a group together with the Reporting Persons or any of the Reporting Persons’ affiliates to elect, an increase of their Maximum Percentage above 4.99%.

 

The warrants described in Exhibit B are not currently exercisable into Shares until such time as the Issuer’s authorized and unissued Shares are at a number sufficient to permit the exercise of all warrants and the conversion or exercise of all other share equivalents. The foregoing description of the warrant does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Common Stock Purchase Warrant included as Exhibit 4.2 of the Issuer's 8-K filed on August 8, 2022, which is incorporated by reference (“Exhibit 4.2”).
