Pursuant to the Loan Amendment, effective as of May 10, 2024, the Lender extended the initial maturity date of the Loan from May 10, 2024 to August 10, 2024 (the “Extended Maturity Date”). The Company also agreed to pay the Lender an extension fee of $106,000 (the “Extension Fee”) which was deemed fully earned as of the date of the Loan Amendment.

If the Loan is repaid in full on or prior to the Extended Maturity Date (and not as a result of an acceleration following a Termination Event), the Company will not be required to pay the Exit Fee. The Loan Amendment has been filed as an exhibit to this report and is incorporated by reference herein. |
