February 2025 SPEA Agreements

On February 13, 2025 (the “February 2025 Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Securities Purchase and Exchange Agreement (the “February 2025 SPEA”) with certain existing accredited investors (the “February 2025 Purchasers”). Pursuant to the February 2025 SPEA, on the February 2025 Closing Date the Company issued secured convertible promissory notes (the “Funding Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $3.3 million together with common stock purchase warrants (the “February 2025 Warrants”) to purchase 3,002,009 shares of the Company common stock, par value $0.001 and exercise price of $1.12 per share (the “February 2025 Warrant Exercise Price”). The aggregate purchase price for the Funding Notes and the February 2025 Warrants was approximately $3.7 million (the “Aggregate Purchase Price”) and included proceeds from the February 2025 Purchasers of $0.125 per February 2025 Warrant in accordance with Nasdaq listing rules. The Funding Notes would mature on February 13, 2026, and bore interest at a rate of 10% per annum, subject to increase upon events of default. The February 2025 Warrants were exercisable for five-years from the date of issuance.

The Funding Notes, accrued interest and February 2025 warrants were repurchased by the Company subsequent to consummation of the March 2025 Private Placement for proceeds of $4.2 million.

Security Interest

The obligations of the Company under the February 2025 SPEA, Funding Notes and Exchange Notes (as defined below) were secured by a pledge of substantially all of the assets of the Company pursuant to a security agreement, dated as of the February 2025 Closing Date, among the Company, CNSide Diagnostics, LLC (a subsidiary of the Company, “CNSide Diagnostics”), and Iroquois Master Fund Ltd., as collateral agent for the February 2025 Purchasers (the “Security Agreement”), subject to certain exceptions. The Security Agreement contained certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on the Company’s and CNSide Diagnostic’s ability to dispose of assets, subject to customary exceptions. The repayment of the Company’s obligations under the February 2025 SPEA and Notes were guaranteed pursuant to a subsidiary guarantee, dated as of the February 2025 Closing Date (the “Subsidiary Guarantee”), by and among CNSide Diagnostics and the February 2025 Purchasers. The Security Agreement and the Subsidiary Guarantee were subsequently terminated after the closing of the private placement pursuant to the March 2025 SPA (as defined below).

Exchange Notes

As disclosed below, the Company entered into the May 2024 Purchase Agreement (defined below), with the May 2024 Purchasers for the private placement of securities, including the May 2024 Series A Warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 3,591,532 shares of common stock. The May 2024 Purchase Agreement included certain limitations and restrictions on the Company’s ability to issue securities and provided the May 2024 Purchasers and the other investors signatories to the May 2024 Purchase Agreement participation rights in future equity and equity-linked offerings of securities, subject to certain limited exceptions (the “Financing Restrictions”). On the February 2025 Closing Date, pursuant to the February 2025 SPEA, the Company issued to the May 2024 Purchasers secured convertible promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $3.2 million (the “Exchange Notes”) in exchange for cancellation of the May 2024 Series A Warrants held by the May 2024 Purchasers, and the May 2024 Purchasers entered into a second amendment to the May 2024 Purchase Agreement to eliminate the Financing Restrictions. The terms and conditions of the Exchange Notes were substantially identical in all material respects to the Funding Notes. The Security Agreement and Subsidiary Guarantee also applied to the obligations under the Exchange Notes. The Exchange Notes were exchanged after the closing of the March 2025 Private Placement as defined below.

Both the Funding Notes and the Exchange Notes contained embedded conversion features that were required to be bifurcated and accounted for as derivative liabilities. The Company evaluated authoritative guidance for accounting for convertible debt instruments and elected to account for the Funding Notes and Exchange Notes at fair value. Consequently, the Company recorded the Funding Notes and Exchange Notes in their entirety at fair value at issuance and immediately before settlement, with changes in fair value recorded as change in fair value of derivative instruments in the condensed consolidated statements of operations between the issuance date and the settlement date.

The Company entered into the transaction due to immediate funding requirements. Under authoritative guidance, if the fair value of a warrant liability exceeds the proceeds received in an arm’s length transaction with no rights or privileges that require separate accounting recognition as an asset identified, then the warrant liability is recorded at fair value with the excess of fair value over proceeds recognized as a loss in earnings. The Exchange Notes, Funding Notes and associated warrants were recorded at fair value on the issuance date at $3.8 million, $4.0 million and $2.7 million, respectively. The excess of the fair value of the instruments issued over cash received of $3.7 million and the carrying value of the May 2024 Series A Warrants exchanged of $3.7 million, in the amount of $3.1 million was recorded as a financing expense in the statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Changes in the fair value of Exchange Notes, Funding Notes and February 2025 Warrants between issuance date and settlement date, in the amount of a gain of $0.3 million, a gain of $0.3 million and a gain of $2.2 million, respectively, were recorded as change in the fair value of derivative instruments in the statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

March 2025 Private Placement

On March 4, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “March 2025 SPA”) with accredited investors, including certain existing stockholders of the Company (collectively, the “March 2025 Private Placement Purchasers”) for a private placement of securities (the “March 2025 Private Placement”). The March 2025 SPA, provides for the sale and issuance by the Company of an aggregate of 28,042,140 shares (the “March 2025 Private Placement Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, or, at the election of each March 2025 Private Placement Purchaser, pre-funded warrants to purchase Common Stock (the “March 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants”), exercisable immediately at an exercise price of $0.001 per share (the “March 2025 Pre-Funded Warrant Shares”), with each March 2025 Private Placement Share or March 2025 Pre-Funded Warrant accompanied by (i) a Series A common warrant (the “March 2025 Series A Warrants”) to purchase one share of common stock (the “March 2025 Series A Warrant Shares”), and (ii) one Series B common warrant (the “March 2025 Series B Warrants”) to purchase one share of common stock (see below for additional details on the Series B Warrants cashless exercise provisions) (the “March 2025 Series B Warrant Shares,” and together with the March 2025 Series A Warrant Shares, the “March 2025 Common Warrant Shares”). The March 2025 Private Placement Shares, March 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants, March 2025 Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, March 2025 Series A Warrants, March 2025 Series B Warrants, and the March 2025 Common Warrant Shares are collectively referred to herein as the “March 2025 Securities.” Pursuant to the March 2025 SPA, the Company issued to the March 2025 Private Placement Purchasers 4,069,738 March 2025 Private Placement Shares,23,972,400 March 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants,28,042,138 March 2025 Series A Warrants and 28,042,138 March 2025 Series B Warrants.

The combined purchase price of $0.66 for each March 2025 Private Placement Share or $0.659 for each March 2025 Pre-Funded Warrant in the March 2025 Private Placement, together with one accompanying March 2025 Series A Warrant and one accompanying March 2025 Series B Warrant, represents the applicable “Minimum Price” in accordance with Nasdaq Rule 5635(d).

The initial exercise price of each March 2025 Series A Warrant issued in the March 2025 Private Placement is $1.32 per share of common stock. The March 2025 Series A Warrants are exercisable only following stockholder approval and expire five (5) years thereafter. The March 2025 Series A Warrants are subject to certain price reset, share combination event and anti-dilution provisions which, if triggered, provide that the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the March 2025 Series A Warrants will downward adjust, subject to a floor price of $0.132 (the “Floor Price”), and the number of shares issuable upon exercise therefor will increase such that the aggregate exercise price remains unchanged. The March 2025 Series A Warrants were extinguished as part of the Letter Agreement on June 17, 2025 as discussed below.

The initial exercise price of each March 2025 Series B Warrant issued in the March 2025 Private Placement is $1.98 per share of common stock. The March 2025 Series B Warrants are exercisable only following stockholder approval and expire two and one-half (2.5) years thereafter. The March 2025 Series B Warrants are subject to certain price reset and share combination event provisions which, if triggered, provide that the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the March 2025 Series B Warrants will downward adjust, subject to the Floor Price, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise therefor will increase such that the aggregate exercise price remains unchanged. In addition, the March 2025 Series B Warrant alternative cashless exercise provision provides that the March 2025 Series B Warrant can be exercised without further payment to the Company and for three times the number of shares of common stock then subject to the March 2025 Series B Warrant.

The March 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants will be exercisable from the date of issuance until exercised in full. The March 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants, March 2025 Series A Warrants and March 2025 Series B Warrants may not be exercised to the extent that immediately following such exercise, the holder would beneficially own greater than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, greater than 9.99%) of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

In connection with the March 2025 Private Placement, the Company issued 3,077,270 shares of common stock,19,650,000 shares of March 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants in lieu thereof, and accompanying 22,727,270 March 2025 Series A Warrants and 22,727,270 March 2025 Series B Warrants in consideration of new capital subscriptions. In addition, the Company issued 992,468 shares of common stock,4,322,400 March 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants in lieu thereof, and accompanying 5,314,870 March 2025 Series A Warrants and 5,314,870 March 2025 Series B Warrants, were issued in exchange for the cancelation of approximately $3.2 million in aggregate principal amount of the Exchange Notes.

The Company evaluated the terms of the February 2025 Warrants, March 2025 Series A Warrants and March 2025 Series B Warrants under authoritative guidance and concluded that each of the instruments should be accounted for as a liability instrument at fair value at issuance and each subsequent balance sheet date until settlement, with changes in the fair value recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The March 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants meet the criteria to be recorded as equity in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The March 2025 Private Placement closed on March 7, 2025 (the “March 2025 Closing Date”). The aggregate gross proceeds at the March 2025 Closing Date totaled approximately $15.0 million. The gross proceeds, along with the fair value of the February 2025 Warrants of $0.5 million and Exchange Notes of $3.5 million as of the settlement date of March 4, 2025, were first allocated to the warrant liability instruments at their full fair value, totaling $13.2 million, with the remainder of $5.8 million recorded to common stock and additional paid-in capital in equity of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Total offering expenses of $1.4 million were allocated based on the allocated amount of proceeds to warrant liabilities and equity, with $1.0 million recorded as warrant issuance expenses and expensed as incurred, and the remaining $0.4 million recorded as common stock issuance costs in additional paid-in capital.

In connection with the March 2025 Private Placement transaction, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with the March 2025 Private Placement Purchasers (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). In accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is required to file a registration statement to register the common stock, pre-funded warrants and warrants issued in connection with the March 2025 Private Placement. If the Company fails to do so within certain specified criteria, the Company could be obligated to pay 1% (and up to 6% under certain circumstances) of proceeds raised as liquidated damages to the March 2025 Private Placement Purchasers. The Company recorded no liability as of June 30, 2025 for such potential liquidated damages payment.

On May 2, 2025, the Company’s stockholders approved, among other things, the March 2025 Series A Warrants and March 2025 Series B Warrants, and an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to increase the authorized share capital of the Company to an amount sufficient to cover the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the March 2025 Series A Warrants and March 2025 Series B Warrants. As part of the March 2025 Series A Warrants and March 2025 Series B Warrants agreement, the exercise price of the March 2025 Series A Warrants and March 2025 Series B Warrants were both reset on May 19, 2025 to $0.4373 per share. Prior to modification of the March 2025 Series B Warrants as part of the Letter Agreement (as further described below), certain March 2025 Series B Warrants were cashless exercised for the issuance of 21,482,492 shares of common stock The liability classified March 2025 Series B Warrants were remeasured immediately prior to exercise, which resulted in a $3.8 million gain on change in fair value for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, and a $0.8 million credit to additional paid-in capital.

Letter Agreement

On June 17, 2025, the Company and the March 2025 Private Placement Purchasers entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with each of the March 2025 Private Placement Purchasers in an effort to, among other items, minimize the dilutive impact of the March 2025 Private Placement. The Letter Agreement extinguished the March 2025 Series A Warrants, modified the March 2025 Series B Warrants, and provided for the return and cancellation of Private Placement Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants, as further discussed in the following paragraphs.

As part of the Letter Agreement, all March 2025 Series A Warrants were cancelled. As of March 31, 2025, the fair value of the March 2025 Series A Warrant liability was $5.0 million. On June 17, 2025, the March 2025 Series A Warrants were immediately remeasured to fair value prior to their cancellation, which resulted in a $2.7 million gain on change in fair value attributable to the March 2025 Series A Warrants for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. The extinguishment of the March 2025 Series A Warrants was recognized as a $2.3 million capital contribution and recorded to additional paid-in capital, as the extinguishment was deemed equivalent to a capital contribution by existing shareholders of the Company.

As part of the same transaction, the March 2025 Series B Warrants were amended (the "Amended March 2025 Series B Warrants"), to (a) reduce the overall number of March 2025 Series B Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Series B Warrants to an aggregate of up to 35,536,380 Series B Warrant Shares, (b) reduce the alternative cashless exercise ratio in such March 2025 Series B Warrants from 3:1 to 1:1, (c) remove provisions contained in the March 2025 Series B Warrants that would otherwise reduce the Company’s stockholders’ equity, and (d) reset the exercise price of the Amended March 2025 Series B Warrants back to $1.98 per share. As a result of the Letter Agreement, the Amended March 2025 Series B Warrants no longer fail the indexation guidance under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, resultingin a reclassification from liability to equity. Immediately prior to reclassification, the March 2025 Series B Warrant liability was remeasured, and $4.5 million was recognized as a capital contribution and recorded to additional paid-in capital, as the modification of the March 2025 Series B Warrants was deemed equivalent to a capital contribution by existing shareholders of the Company. The remeasured fair value of the March 2025 Series B warrant liability, in the amount of $11.0 million was reclassified to equity. After the June 17, 2025 modification,34,794,540 of the Amended March 2025 Series B Warrants were cashless exercised resulting in the issuance of 34,794,540 shares of common stock.

Lastly, in conjunction with the Letter Agreement, each of the March 2025 Private Placement Purchasers agreed to return an aggregate of 12,241,986 Private Placement Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants issuable for an aggregate of 10,633,650 Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, held by them as of the date of the Letter Agreement, upon request of the Company (the "Letter Agreement Repurchase Option"), which were issued pursuant to the March 2025 Private Placement Purchase Agreement for a value of $0.66 per Private Placement Share and $0.659 per Pre-Funded Warrant. In exchange therefor, the Company agreed to repay the March 2025 Private Placement Purchasers holding such securities 115% of such value, using 90% of the proceeds from any capital raised by the Company subsequent to July 1, 2025. The Company and each of the March 2025 Private Placement Purchasers also agreed to waive any restrictions on subsequent equity sales and variable rate transactions contained in March 2025 Private Placement Purchase Agreement to allow for such repayment. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had not elected to repurchase any shares from the March 2025 Private Placement Purchasers under the terms of the Letter Agreement and therefore, there isno liability recorded as of June 30, 2025 related to this Letter Agreement Repurchase Option.

First Amendment to the February 2025 SPEA

In connection with entering into the March 2025 SPA, the Company entered into that certain First Amendment to the February 2025 SPEA (the “First Amendment”). The February 2025 SPEA included certain limitations and restrictions on the Company’s ability to issue securities and provided the investors with participation rights in future equity and equity-linked offerings of securities, subject to certain limited exceptions (the “New Financing Restrictions”). Pursuant to the First Amendment, subject to consummation of the March 2025 Private Placement, the Company agreed to repurchase from the Investors $3.4 million in principal amount of the Company’s Funding Notes and accrued interest, along with the February 2025 Warrants issued pursuant to the February 2025 SPEA for an aggregate purchase price of $4.2 million. In exchange for the repurchase by the Company of the Funding Notes and SPEA Warrants, the February 2025 Purchasers agreed to consent to the March 2025 Private Placement and eliminate the New Financing Restrictions.

May 2024 Private Placement

On May 5, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “May 2024 Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors, including certain of the Company’s directors and executive officers (“Company Insiders”) (collectively, the “May 2024 Purchasers”), for the sale and issuance by the Company of its securities (the “Initial Subscription”). On May 8, 2024, the Company entered into a first amendment to the May 2024 Securities Purchase Agreement (together with the May 2024 Securities Purchase Agreement, the “May 2024 Purchase Agreement”), for the sale and issuance by the Company of additional securities to two of the May 2024 Purchasers (the “Additional Subscription,” and together with the Initial Subscription, the “May 2024 Private Placement”). The May 2024 Purchase Agreement provides for the sale and issuance by the Company of an aggregate of 3,591,532 shares (the “May 2024 Private Placement Shares”) of the Company’s common stock or, at the election of each May 2024 Purchaser, Pre-Funded warrants (the “May 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants”), exercisable immediately at an exercise price of $0.001 per share, with each May 2024 Private Placement Share or May 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant accompanied by (i) a May 2024 Series A common warrant (“May 2024 Series A Warrants”) to purchase one share of common stock, for an aggregate of 3,591,532 May 2024 Series A Warrants, and (ii) one May 2024 Series B common warrant (“May 2024 Series B Warrants”) to purchase one share of common stock, for an aggregate of 3,591,532 May 2024 Series B Warrants.

The combined purchase price for each May 2024 Private Placement Share and May 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant from the Initial Subscription was $2.022, and $2.158 from the Additional Subscription, in each case together with one accompanying May 2024 Series A Warrant and one accompanying May 2024 Series B Warrant provided, that the Company Insiders participated in the Initial Subscription at an offering price of $2.04 per May 2024 Private Placement Share and accompanying May 2024 Series A Warrant and May 2024 Series B Warrant.

The exercise price of May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants from the Initial Subscription is $1.772 per share from the Initial Subscription and $1.908 per share from the Additional Subscription, provided that the exercise price for the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants issued to the Company Insiders is $1.79 per share. Subject to certain ownership limitations, the May 2024 Series A Warrants will be exercisable until May 9, 2029, which is the five-year anniversary of issuance. Subject to certain ownership limitations, the May 2024 Series B Warrants will be exercisable until May 9, 2029. The May 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant will not expire until exercised in full.

Prior to the Amendment and Restatements (as defined below), if a holder of a May 2024 Series A Warrant or a May 2024 Series B Warrant was unable to exercise the warrant due to the limitation contained in the warrant that restricts the holder from owning above a specified beneficial ownership level (generally 4.99% or 9.99%)as the result of exercise of the warrant, then the holder hadthe right to elect upon exercise of the warrant to receive a May 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant for the same number of shares of common stock that would otherwise have been received upon exercise of the warrant. In addition, prior to the Amendment and Restatements, the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants provided for a call right starting June 24, 2025, in favor of the Company, if the volume-weighted average price of the shares of common stock exceeds specified prices.

The May 2024 Private Offering closed on May 9, 2024. The Company issued 1,439,988 shares of common stock,2,151,544 May 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants,3,591,532 May 2024 Series A Warrants and 3,591,532 May 2024 Series B Warrants to purchase shares of its common stock in connection with the May 2024 Private Placement. The net proceeds from the May 2024 Private Placement were approximately $7.3 million.

The Company reviewed the terms of the May 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants, May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants under the authoritative accounting guidance as of the issuance date.

As described above, the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants were initially classified as liabilities for the reason that they could have been exercised into either shares of common stock or May 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants at the holder’s option and thus failed the indexation guidance under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The May 2024 Series A Warrant and May 2024 Series B Warrant liability were initially recorded at fair value as of the issuance date, and under the terms of the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants when issued that liability was subject to adjustment to estimated fair value at each balance sheet date until the warrants were settled. Refer below for additional information regarding the amendment of the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants that eliminated the ability of the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants to be exercised into Pre-Funded Warrants, and as a result, the reclassification of the May 2024 Series A and B Warrants from liability to equity section of the consolidated balance sheet.

The May 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants are equity classified because they (1) are freestanding financial instruments that are legally detachable and separately exercisable from the common stock, (2) are immediately exercisable, (3) do not embody an obligation for the Company to repurchase its shares, (4) permit the holder to receive a fixed number of shares of common stock upon exercise, (5) are indexed to the Company’s common stock and (6) meet the equity classification criteria.

The proceeds from the May 2024 Private Placement were first allocated to the full fair value of the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants due to the initial liability classification. As disclosed in Note 4, Fair Value Measurements, the fair value of the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants at issuance was $10.9 million. Under authoritative guidance, if the fair value of a warrant liability exceeds the proceeds received in an arm’s length transaction with no rights or privileges that require separate accounting recognition as an asset identified, then the warrant liability is recorded at fair value with the excess of fair value over proceeds recognized as a loss in earnings. The Company recognized approximately $3.5 million in financing expense in the consolidated statement of operations during year ended December 31, 2024, which represents the excess of the fair value of the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants at issuance over the proceeds. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized a fair value gain on warrant liability of $5.7 million. Proceeds from the May 2024 Private Placement are shown as cash from financing transactions and the gain on warrant liability is included as an adjustment to reconcile the net loss to net cash used in operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2024.

In addition, total offering expenses related to the May 2024 Private Placement of $0.4 million were recorded as a component of other expenses as the entire proceeds were allocated to the warrant liability, which, prior to the amendment described below, could be settled with either the Company’s shares of common stock or May 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants, which are exercisable into the Company’s shares of common stock at any time at the holders’ option, but not in cash payment to the holders.

Amendment and Restatement of May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants

On August 9, 2024, the Company amended and restated the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants (the “Amendment and Restatements”) issued in the May 2024 Private Placement. The Amendment and Restatements eliminated the ability of the holders of the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants to elect to purchase Pre-Funded Warrants upon exercise of the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants in lieu of shares of common stock if the holder would have been restricted because of the specified beneficial ownership level in the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants.

In addition, the Amendment and Restatements eliminated the Company’s call right under the terms of the May 2024 Series A Warrants to call the May 2024 Series A Warrants after June 24, 2025, if the volume-weighted average price of shares of common stock exceeded specified prices. There were no other changes in the terms of the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants.

As a result of the Amendment and Restatements, the May 2024 Series A Warrants and May 2024 Series B Warrants, as amended, no longer fail the indexation guidance under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and the fair value of the warrant liability at the amendment date, in the amount of $5.2 million, was reclassified to equity.

On June 17, 2025, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the “Lincoln Park Purchase Agreement”) and a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“Lincoln Park”), pursuant to which the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to sell to Lincoln Park, and Lincoln Park committed to purchase up to $50.0 million of shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share. Such sales of common stock by the Company are subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the Lincoln Park Purchase Agreement including, but not limited to, the filing and effectiveness of a registration statement (a "Lincoln Park Registration Statement"). On June 23, 2025, the initial Lincoln Park Registration Statement was declared effective to cover the resale of up to 17,000,000 shares reserved for issuance and sale under the Lincoln Park Purchase Agreement.
