Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration |
| Item 3 is hereby supplemented as follows:
On February 7, 2025, pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated February 5, 2025, Mr. Atwood purchased 306,120 Pre-Funded Warrants, which are exercisable at any time on or after the date of issuance for an exercise price of $0.0001 per share, for shares of Common Stock, and 306,120 Warrants, which will become exercisable immediately upon the Issuer's receipt of stockholder approval (the "Stockholder Approval Date") for an exercise price of $1.96 per share, for shares of Common Stock. The aggregate purchase price for each pair of Pre-Funded Warrants and Warrants was $1.9599. The Warrants will expire on the fifth anniversary of the Stockholder Approval Date. In addition, GVN, LLC, a limited liability company of which the sole member is the Trust, and of which Brian G. Atwood and Lynne H. Edminster are the managers, purchased 204,080 Pre-Funded Warrants and 204,080 Warrants. The aggregate purchase price for all of the Pre-Funded Warrants and Warrants purchased by the Reporting Persons was $999,992. The purchase of the Pre-Funded Warrants and Warrants was financing through the use of personal funds of the Reporting Persons.
Each of the Pre-Funded Warrants and Warrants contains a beneficial ownership limitation, preventing the exercise thereof if and to the extent that the exercise thereof would result in the holder thereof, together with its affiliates who may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the securities held thereby, being deemed to have beneficial ownership of greater than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. As a result, such Pre-Funded Warrants and Warrants are not presently exercisable and none of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise thereof. |
