April 2024 Private Placement
On April 1, 2024, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of a securities purchase agreement with certain purchasers named therein, the Company completed the 2024 Private Placement of an aggregate of 2,083,262 common shares, 2,532,285 Series A Warrants and 449,023 Pre-Funded Warrants.
