Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

On May 20, 2024, the Reporting Person entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the Issuer, pursuant to which it agreed to purchase from the Issuer (i) shares of the Issuer’s Series G Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”), convertible into 3,854,626 shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $1.816 per share, (ii) warrants with a five-year term to purchase up to 3,854,626 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.816 per share (the “Long-Term Warrants”) and (iii) warrants with an 18-month term to purchase up to 3,854,626 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.816 per share (the “Short-Term Warrants” and together with the Long-Term Warrants, the “Warrants”). The Preferred Shares and Warrants shall be referred to herein as the “Securities,” and the Reporting Person’s purchase thereof shall be referred to herein as the “Transaction.”

 

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Reporting Person has the right to participate in future sales of the Issuer’s equity and equity-linked securities until the second anniversary of the closing of the Transaction or the date on which no Preferred Shares remain outstanding, whichever is earlier. Additionally, the Reporting Person has the right to nominate one individual to serve on the Issuer’s board of directors until the Reporting Person no longer beneficially owns 20% of the Common Stock on an as-converted basis. The Issuer also agreed to cooperate with the Reporting Person in connection with (i) establishing a 10b5-1 sales program for the Reporting Person’s shares of Common Stock and (ii) preparing pro forma financial statements in connection with the Transaction.

 

 

 

 

The Preferred Shares

 

The terms of the Preferred Shares are as set forth in a certificate of designations (the “Certificate of Designations”), which the Issuer filed with the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware on May 21, 2024. The Preferred Shares will be convertible into shares of Common Stock (the “Conversion Shares”) at the election of the Reporting Person at any time at an initial conversion price of $1.816 (the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, and subject to price-based adjustment in the event of any issuances of shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable Conversion Price (subject to certain exceptions). At any time after the issuance date of the Preferred Shares, the Issuer has the option to redeem in cash all or any portion of the outstanding Preferred Shares then outstanding at a premium upon notice to the Reporting Person.

 

Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, the Reporting Person will be entitled to dividends of 10% per annum, compounded monthly, which will be payable in cash or in shares of Common Stock at the Issuer’s option. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Triggering Event (as defined in the Certificate of Designations), the Preferred Shares will accrue dividends at the rate of 15% per annum. Upon conversion or redemption, the Reporting Person is also entitled to receive a dividend make-whole payment. The Reporting Person will be entitled to vote with holders of the Common Stock on as as-converted basis, with the number of votes to which the Reporting Person is entitled to be calculated assuming a conversion price of $2.253 per share. The Issuer’s ability to settle conversions and make dividend make-whole payments by issuing shares of Common Stock is subject to certain limitations set forth in the Certificate of Designations.

 

The Certificate of Designations includes certain Triggering Events (as defined in the Certificate of Designations), including, among other things, the failure by the Issuer to file and maintain an effective registration statement covering the sale of the securities registrable pursuant to the Registrat ion Rights Agreement (as defined below) and the failure by the Issuer to pay any amounts to the Reporting Person when due. In connection with a Triggering Event, the Reporting Person will be able to require the Issuer to redeem in cash any or all of its Preferred Shares at a premium set forth in the Certificate of Designations.

 

The Warrants

 

The Long-Term Warrants are exercisable for shares of Common Stock (the “Long-Term Warrant Shares”) immediately, at an exercise price of $1.816 per share and expire five years from the date of issuance. The Short-Term Warrants are exercisable for shares of Common Stock (the “Short-Term Warrant Shares” and, together with the Long-Term Warrant Shares, the “Warrant Shares”) immediately, at an exercise price of $1.816 per share and expire 18 months from the date of issuance. The exercise price of each Warrant is subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, and subject to price-based adjustment, on a “full ratchet” basis, in the event of any issuances of shares of Common Stock or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock at a price below the then-applicable exercise price (subject to certain exceptions).

 

Except as set forth in this Item 4, the Reporting Person does not have a present plan or proposal that relates to or would result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

Registration Rights Agreement

 

The Preferred Shares, the Conversion Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The Issuer and the Reporting Person entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Issuer will be required to file a resale registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to register for resale 200% of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares within 30 calendar days after closing date of the Transaction, and to have such Registration Statement declared effective by the Effectiveness Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement).
