Only those items that are reported are hereby amended; all other items reported in the Original Schedule 13D remain unchanged. Capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Original Schedule 13D.

Securities Purchase Agreement
On April 1, 2024, the Issuer entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the Securities Purchase Agreement), with certain institutional investors, including the Reporting Entities (the Investors) and management (together with the Investors, the Purchasers) whereby the Issuer issued and sold in a private placement (the Private Placement), which closed on April 4, 2024 (the Closing Date): (i) shares (the Shares) of Common Stock, (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock, and (iii) warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock.

The Series D Common Warrants will also become exercisable in the event of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Series D Common Warrants). |
If a Purchaser fails to exercise such Purchasers Series B Common Warrants in full prior to the Termination Date (as defined in the Series B Common Warrant), then the Series A Common Warrants, Series B Common Warrants, Series C Common Warrants and Series D Common Warrants issued to such Purchaser shall be subject to mandatory transfer as set forth in the applicable warrant and to the extent not transferred shall automatically be cancelled and cease to be exercisable.
