dividend, stock split, combination of shares, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other similar event (“anti-dilution adjustments”) plus all declared but unpaid dividends on such shares. Should the Company’s legally available assets be insufficient to satisfy the liquidation preferences, the funds will be distributed with equal priority and pro rata among the holders of Series C/C-1 convertible preferred stock in proportion to the preferential amount each holder is otherwise entitled to receive.

After full payment to holders of the Series C/C-1 convertible preferred stock, payment should be made to the holders of Series B convertible preferred stock, in preference to the holders of the Series A convertible preferred stock or common stock, in the amount per share for each share of Series B convertible preferred stock held by them equal to the original issue price of such share, adjusted for any anti-dilution adjustments, plus all declared and unpaid dividends on such shares.

Should the Company’s legally available assets be insufficient to satisfy the liquidation preferences, the funds will be distributed with equal priority and pro rata among the holders of Series A convertible preferred stock in proportion to the preferential amount each holder is otherwise entitled to receive.

After the payment to the holders of convertible preferred stock of the full preferential amounts specified above, the entire remaining assets of the Company legally available for distribution by the Company shall be distributed with equal priority and pro rata among the holders of the common stock and holders of convertible preferred stock as-if-converted to common stock basis in proportion to the number of shares of common stock held by them.

Conversion

Each share of convertible preferred stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, into the number of fully-paid and non-assessable shares of common stock that result from dividing the applicable original issue price per share by the applicable conversion price per share at the time of conversion, as adjusted for any anti-dilution adjustments If, after the issuance date of convertible preferred stock, the Company issues or sells, or is deemed to have sold, additional shares of common stock at a price lower than the original issuance price, except for certain exceptions allowed, the conversion price of convertible preferred stock would be adjusted. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s convertible preferred stock was convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis.

Each share of convertible preferred stock is convertible into common stock automatically upon the earlier of (i) immediately upon the closing of a firmly underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering the offer and sale of any class or security of the Company in which (a) the gross offering price per share reflects a pre-offering valuation of the Company of not less than $200 million, calculated on a fully-diluted and as-converted basis before giving effect to the issuance of the securities to be sold in such public offering, and (b) the cash proceeds to the Company (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) are at least $50 million (a “Qualified IPO”); or (ii) the Company’s receipt of a written request for such conversion from at least a majority of holders of the then outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock, voting as a single class on an as-if-converted basis.

Redemption and Balance Sheet Classification

Convertible preferred stock is recorded in mezzanine equity because while it is not mandatorily redeemable, it will become redeemable at the option of the stockholders upon the occurrence of certain deemed liquidation events that are considered not solely within the Company’s control.
