APPENDIX A
The Reporting Person owns outright 8,405 shares. The Reporting Person also is the spouse of Ana Parker, who owns outright 205,124 shares. Because the Reporting Person shares with Mrs. Parker the voting and dispositive power over these 205,124 shares, the Reporting Person may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of these shares as well. As a result, the Reporting Person may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of a total of 213,529 shares.
The Reporting Person disclaims any beneficial ownership of any of the 23,438 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired upon the exercise of Series K Warrants (which expire August 17, 2026) held by him, and any of the following shares that may be acquired by Ana Parker (his spouse) upon the exercise of the following warrants issued in her name: 17,143 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired upon the exercise of Series I Warrants (which expire October 18, 2024), 48,290 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired upon the exercise of a Warrant dated July 6, 2022 (which expire July 6, 2027), 82,465 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired upon the exercise of a Warrant dated August 31, 2023 (which expires August 31, 2028), and 549,486 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired upon the exercise of a Warrant dated August 31, 2023 (which expires August 31, 2028), as all such warrants cannot be exercised until such time as the holder would not beneficially own, after such exercise, 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 Reporting Person also disclaims any beneficial ownership of any of the 51,042 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the outstanding principal of and accrued interest on a Series 3B Subordinated Convertible Note, and any of the 52,517 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the outstanding principal of and accrued interest on a Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note, as such Notes 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.
In computing the ownership percentages set forth herein, the Reporting Person used the figure of 4,742,363 outstanding shares of Common Stock, which was provided to the Reporting Person by Issuer upon the Reporting Person’s request.
