Warrant Exercise Inducement Transactions

 

March 2025

On March 6, 2025, the Company entered into warrant exercise inducement agreements with holders of existing warrants for the exercise of outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 837,104 shares of common stock of the Company originally issued in October 2024 at the exercise price of $4.42 per share, in exchange for the issuance of new warrants. The aggregate gross proceeds from the exercise of the existing warrants was $3.7 million, before deducting financial advisory fees. The new warrants were exercisable for an aggregate of up to 1,674,208 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $3.75 per share, for a period of five years following shareholder approval of the exercise price of the warrants that occurred on May 5, 2025. As the new warrants were considered offering costs, the Company has recorded both an increase and decrease to additional paid-in capital of approximately $3.9 million representing the difference between the fair market value of the existing warrants and new warrants on the date of the transaction. There was no net impact on total equity as a result.

 

Roth Capital Partners, LLC (“Roth”) acted as the Company’s financial advisor in connection with the transaction described above. Pursuant to a financial advisory agreement with Roth, the Company (i) paid Roth a financial advisory fee equal to 8% of the aggregate gross proceeds received from the exercise of the Existing Warrants, (ii) reimbursed Roth $40,000 for its legal expenses and (iii) issued Roth a warrant (the “Advisor Warrant”) to purchase 125,566 shares of common stock (being equal to 5.0% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Existing Warrants and the Inducement Warrants). The Advisor Warrant has the same terms as the Inducement Warrants.

On October 29, 2025, the Company entered into warrant exercise inducement agreements with holders of existing warrants for the exercise of outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,116,136 shares of common stock of the Company originally issued in March 2025, at the exercise price of $3.75 per share, in exchange for the issuance of new warrants. The aggregate gross proceeds from the exercise of the existing warrants was approximately $4.2 million, before deducting financial advisory fees. The new warrants are exercisable for an aggregate of up to 2,790,340 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $2.86 per share. The new warrants are exercisable for a period of five years following shareholder approval of the exercise of the warrants that occurred on December 26, 2025. In addition, in connection with this transaction, the Company agreed to (i) reduce the exercise price of certain warrants issued in May 2022 and December 2021 to $4.73 per share, and (ii) issue warrants to purchase up to 279,036 shares of common stock in the same form as the issued warrants, to an investor that consented to the transaction. As the new warrants were considered offering costs, the Company has recorded both an increase and decrease to additional paid-in capital of approximately $9.2 million representing the difference between the fair market value of the existing warrants and new warrants on the date of the transaction. There was no net impact on total equity as a result.

 

Roth acted as the Company’s financial advisor in connection with the transaction described above. Pursuant to a financial advisory agreement with Roth, the Company (i) paid Roth a financial advisory fee equal to 8% of the aggregate gross proceeds received from the exercise of the Existing Warrants, and (ii) reimbursed Roth $40,000 for its legal expenses.

As part of the transaction, the Company has agreed to file a resale registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC within thirty days of the closing to register the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Inducement Warrants. As the new warrants were considered offering costs, the Company has recorded both an increase and decrease to additional paid-in capital of approximately $9.2 million representing the difference between the fair market value of the existing warrants and new warrants on the date of the transaction. There was no net impact on total equity as a result.
