Item 1A.** Risk Factors

Current report

We completed a reverse stock split on October 24, 2024 in an effort to regain compliance with Nasdaq listing rules and we cannot predict the effect that such reverse stock split will have on the market price for shares of our common stock.

Current report

Our board of directors approved a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of our common stock, which became effective at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on October 24, 2024. We cannot predict the effect that the reverse stock split will have on the market price for shares of our common stock, and the history of similar reverse stock splits for companies in like circumstances has varied. Some investors may have a negative view of a reverse stock split. Even if the reverse stock split has a positive effect on the market price for shares of our common stock, performance of our business and financial results, general economic conditions and the market perception of our business, and other adverse factors which may not be in our control could lead to a decrease in the price of our common stock following the reverse stock split.

Current report

Furthermore, even if the reverse stock split does result in an increased market price per share of our common stock, the market price per share following the reverse stock split may not increase in proportion to the reduction of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding before the implementation of the reverse stock split. Accordingly, even with an increased market price per share, the total market capitalization of shares of our common stock after a reverse stock split could be lower than the total market capitalization before the reverse stock split. Also, even if there is an initial increase in the market price per share of our common stock after a reverse stock split, the market price many not remain at that level.

Current report

We may be required to issue up to 271,846 shares of common stock in connection with the reverse stock split we completed on October 24, 2024, and we may be subject to potential liability if it is determined that we are required to issue such shares and we fail to issue such shares on a timely basis.

Current report

On October 24, 2024, we completed a one-for-twenty reverse stock split of our common stock. In connection with the approval of the reverse stock split, we agreed that no fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split and that we would issue one full share of the post-reverse stock split common stock to any shareholder who would have been entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the process. On November 1, 2024, we received notice from DTCC on behalf of the brokerage firms that hold the shares of our common stock held in “street name” that in connection with the foregoing rounding of shares we would need to issue 271,846 shares of common stock.

Current report

We do not believe the number of shares being requested is correct based on the historical number of shareholders of our common stock and have begun an inquiry into the calculations set forth in the request. During the pendency of this inquiry, we do not expect to issue any shares in connection with the fractional shares being requested. We may face potential liability for our failure to issue the shares of common stock if it is determined that we are required to issue such shares. In addition, our shareholders will be diluted to the extent of any issuances of shares of common stock in connection with the foregoing.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Current report

On July 10, 2024, we entered into a license agreement (the “Agreement”) with RF Innovations, Inc. (“RFI”), a privately held medical technology company, to license products utilizing RFI’s intellectual property related to its Apex 6 Radiofrequency Generator (the “Licensed Products”). The Apex 6 Generator is a United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) cleared ablation technology designed to lesion neural tissue for pain management in the peripheral nervous system. Pursuant to the Agreement, RFI granted us a perpetual non-exclusive worldwide royalty free fully paid license related to the Licensed Products, provided that the license did not include the right to sell certain products to customers for the treatment of spine pain. In connection with the Agreement, we issued RFI 12,500 unregistered shares of our common stock as consideration for the license. The Agreement provides RFI the right to terminate the license if we breach any representation, warranty or covenant contained in the Agreement, subject to any relevant cure periods, or if we are subject to a bankruptcy or insolvency event.

Item 4.** Mine Safety Disclosures

Previous report

On June 17, 2024, we entered into an employment agreement with Brad Hauser pursuant to which Mr. Hauser agreed to serve as our chief executive officer and president for an initial three-year period, which may be extended on a year-to-year basis. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Hauser was granted a ten-year option (the “Inducement Options”) to purchase 900,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to the closing price of our common stock on the date of the employment agreement. The option vests in four equal annual installments (or 225,000 shares each installment) on each of the succeeding four anniversary dates of the execution of the employment agreement, provided Mr. Hauser is employed by us on each vesting date. In the event of a “change of control” or the termination of the agreement by us without “cause” or by Mr. Hauser for “good reason,” all of the unvested options shall immediately vest. The Inducement Options were granted outside of our 2023 Stock Plan as an inducement material to Mr. Hauser’s entering into employment with us in accordance with Nasdaq Stock Market Listing Rule 5635(c)(4).
