Does not include 504,641 pre-funded warrants, which are subject to a 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation. Also does not include 1,525,641 Series A Warrants and 1,525,641 Series B Warrants, both of which are subject to a 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation. The numbers in this Schedule 13G do not give effect to increased numbers of shares potentially issuable under the Series A and Series B Warrants since no meeting of the stockholders to consider the Warrant Stockholder Approval is likely to occur within 60 days of May 28, 2024 and the beneficial ownership limitations will apply in any event.
