Designation of Series A Convertible Preferred Shares and Securities Purchase Agreement

 

On June 30, 2025, the Company filed a certificate of designations of preferences and rights of Series A convertible preferred shares (“Series A COD”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to set forth the terms of the Series A convertible preferred shares. Pursuant to the Series A COD, the Company designated 2,000 shares of preferred shares as Series A convertible preferred shares and each share of Series A convertible preferred shares has a stated value of $1,100. On October 22, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company approved to amend the number of designated shares of Series A convertible preferred shares to 4,000 shares pursuant to the Series A COD. The following summarizes the material terms of the Series A convertible preferred shares:

 

  Dividends – Each Series A convertible preferred shares holder (“Holder”) shall be entitled to receive dividends of 10% per annum on the stated value of each share of Series A convertible preferred shares.

 

  Liquidation – In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the Holders shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets or surplus funds of the Company to the holders of common shares and any other class or series of equity shares of the Company, an amount per share equal to the greater of (i) the stated value plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon or (ii) the amount that such Holder would receive if such Holder converts all of its shares of Series A convertible preferred shares into common shares immediately prior to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up. If, upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the assets and funds available for distribution among the Holders shall be insufficient to permit the payment to such Holders of the full preferential amount aforesaid, then the entire assets and funds of the Company legally available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among the Holders in proportion to the amount that each such Holder is entitled to receive. After the payment of the full amount of the liquidation preference to which the Holders are entitled, the Holders shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Company.

 

  Voting – The Series A convertible preferred shares shall have no voting rights. However, as long as any shares of Series A convertible preferred shares are outstanding, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote of the Holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A convertible preferred shares, and with each share of Series A convertible preferred shares having one vote on (i) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series A convertible preferred shares or alter or amend the Series A COD, (ii) issue additional shares of Series A convertible preferred shares or increase or decrease (other than by conversion) the number of authorized shares of Series A convertible preferred shares, or (iii) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.

 

  Conversion – Each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s opinion, to convert any or all of the Series A convertible preferred shares held by such Holder into fully paid and nonassessable shares of common shares. The number of shares of common shares issuable upon conversion of each share of Series A convertible preferred shares shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the stated value plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon by (ii) 90% of the average of the two lowest volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s common shares for the five trading days immediately preceding the respective common shares conversion notice delivery date.

 

  Redemption – No share of Series A convertible preferred shares shall be redeemable under any circumstances.

 

On June 30, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement and a registration rights agreement with Crom Structured Opportunities Fund I, LP (“Crom Structured”), pursuant to which the Company closed, issued and sold to Crom Structured an aggregate of 2,000 shares of the Company’s designated Series A convertible preferred shares for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000.

The Company received net proceeds of $1,800,000 from the securities purchase agreement after deducting share issuance transaction fees.

The Company shall not issue or sell any shares of common shares under the equity purchase agreement which, when aggregate with all purchases of common shares made by Crom Structured pursuant to the equity purchase agreement, would result in beneficial ownership of more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common shares.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the equity purchase agreement, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to sell to Crom Structured, shares of common shares over the period commencing on the date of the equity purchase agreement and ending on the earlier of (i) the date on which Crom Structured shall have purchased common shares pursuant to the equity purchase agreement equal to $25 million, (ii) June 30, 2027, (iii) written notice of termination by the Company to Crom Structured, (iv) the registration statement is no longer effective after the initial effective date of the registration statement, or (v) the date that the Company commences a voluntary bankruptcy case, a bankruptcy proceeding is commenced against the Company, a custodian is appointed for the Company or for all or substantially all of its property, or the Company makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors. The purchase price will be calculated as 96% of the VWAP of the Company’s common shares on the trading day immediately preceding the respective common shares purchase notice delivery date.

 

Concurrently with the signing of the equity purchase agreement, the Company issued 24,272 shares of common shares to Crom Structured as a commitment fee. The total fair value of the common shares issued for the commitment fee of $250,000 was recorded as deferred offering costs in the consolidated balance sheets.

This program has not set termination date and may be suspended or discontinued by at any time.
