(B) | The equity award adjustments for each applicable year include the addition (or subtraction, as applicable) of the following: (i) the year-end fair value of any equity awards granted in the applicable year that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the year; (ii) the amount of change as of the end of the applicable year (from the end of the prior fiscal year) in fair value of any awards granted in prior years that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the applicable year; (iii) for awards that are granted and vest in the same applicable year, the fair value as of the vesting date; (iv) for awards granted in prior years that vest in the applicable year, the amount equal to the change as of the vesting date (from the end of the prior fiscal year) in fair value; (v) for awards granted in prior years that are determined to fail to meet the applicable vesting conditions during the applicable year, a deduction for the amount equal to the fair value at the end of the prior fiscal year; and (vi) the dollar value of any dividends or other earnings paid on stock or option awards in the applicable year prior to the vesting date that are not otherwise reflected in the fair value of such award or included in any other component of total compensation for the applicable year.

(5) | The dollar amounts reported in column (d) represent the average of the amounts reported for our company’s Non-PEO NEOs as a group in the “Total” column of the Summary Executive Compensation Table in each applicable year. |
(6) | The dollar amounts reported in column (e) represent the average amount of “compensation actually paid” to the Non-PEO NEOs as a group, as computed in accordance with the Pay Versus Performance Rules. The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual average amount of compensation earned by or paid to the Non-PEO NEOs as a group during the applicable year. In accordance with the Pay Versus Performance Rules, the following adjustments were made to average total compensation for the Non-PEO NEOs for each year to determine the compensation actually paid, using the same methodology described above in Note (4)(B): |
Year | | Average Reported Summary Compensation Table Total for Non-PEO NEOs | | | Average Reported Value of Equity Awards | | | Average Equity Award Adjustments (a) | | | Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-PEO NEOs | | 2025 | | $ | 706,699 | | | $ | 389,082 | | | $ | 219,207 | | | $ | 536,824 | | 2024 | | $ | 422,236 | | | $ | 238,333 | | | $ | 82,708 | | | $ | 266,611 | | 2023 | | $ | 224,261 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 51,875 | | | $ | 276,136 | |
(a) | The amounts deducted or added in calculating the total average equity award adjustments are as follows: |
Year | | Average Year End Fair Value of Outstanding and Unvested Equity Awards Granted in the Year | | | Year over Year Average Change in Fair Value of Outstanding and Unvested Equity Awards Granted in Prior Years | | | Average Fair Value as of Vesting Date of Equity Awards Granted and Vested in the Year | | | Year over Year Average Change in Fair Value of Equity Awards Granted in Prior Years that Vested in the Year | | | Average Fair Value at the End of the Prior Year of Equity Awards that Failed to Meet Vesting Conditions in the Year | | | Average Value of Dividends or other Earnings Paid on Stock or Option Awards not Otherwise Reflected in Fair Value or Total Compensation | | | Total Average Equity Award Adjustments | | 2025 | | $ | 120,125 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 90,332 | | | $ | 8,750 | | | $ | — | | | $ | — | | | $ | 219,207 | | 2024 | | $ | 165,000 | | | $ | (23,333 | ) | | $ | — | | | $ | (6,042 | ) | | $ | (52,917 | ) | | $ | — | | | $ | 82,708 | | 2023 | | $ | — | | | $ | 5,000 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 46,875 | | | $ | — | | | $ | — | | | $ | 51,875 | |
(7) | Assumes $100 invested in our common shares on December 31, 2022, and calculated based on the difference between the share price of our common stock at the end and the beginning of the measurement period, and reinvestment of all dividends. No cash dividends were paid in 2023, 2024 or 2025. |
(8) | The dollar amounts reported represent the amount of net loss reflected in our consolidated audited financial statements for the applicable year. |
Relationship Between “Compensation Actually Paid” and Performance We generally seek to incentivize long-term performance, and therefore do not specifically align our performance measures with “compensation actually paid” (as computed in accordance with the Pay Versus Performance Rules) for a particular year. In accordance with the Pay Versus Performance Rules, we are providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay Versus Performance table. Compensation Actually Paid and Net Income (Loss) Our company has not historically looked to net income (loss) as a performance measure for our executive compensation program. Our net (loss) was ($91,982,136), ($1,409,849), and $13,894,886, for fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Compensation Actually Paid and Cumulative TSR As shown in the following graph, the compensation actually paid to our PEOs and the average amount of compensation actually paid to our non-PEO NEOs as a group during the periods presented have little correlation because we do not traditionally take into account TSR when determining the compensation paid to our PEO or non PEO NEOs. All information provided above under the “Pay Versus Performance” and “Relationship Between “Compensation Actually Paid” and Performance”, headings will not be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing of our company under the Securities Act, whether made before or after the date hereof and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any such filing.
