The Debentures have an aggregate principal amount of approximately $13,893,059 (including a 15% original issue discount). The Debentures were issued to eleven (11) holders, six (6) of whom invested $6.25 million with the balance of the principal amount consisting of the issuance of the Debenture to the Seller and the issuances of Debentures to four (4) lenders to refinance previous loans.

The conversion price: (i) prior to the date of a Qualified Offering (an offering the Company enters into in connection with the Uplisting) is eighty percent (80%) of the lowest VWAP of the Common Stock during the five (5) trading day period immediately prior to the applicable Conversion Date; (ii) at the Qualified Offering, at the Qualified Offering Conversion Price (the effective price per share paid by investors per share of Common Stock that is sold to the public in the Qualified Offering); or (ii) following the date of the Qualified Offering, eighty percent (80%) of the lowest VWAP of the Common Stock during the ten (10) trading day period immediately prior to the three (3) month anniversary of date of the Qualified Offering.
On the date of the Qualified Offering, the Company will need to repay the lesser of the outstanding principal and an amount equal to the A) the outstanding principal sum on such date, multiplied by (B) the quotient obtained by dividing (1) the gross proceeds of the Qualified Offering by (2) the outstanding principal sum of all Debentures issued and any interest on the aggregate unconverted and then outstanding principal amount of the Debentures. By way of example, if the principal amount outstanding of a Debenture is $500,000, the gross proceeds of the Qualified Offering is $5,000,000 and total amount outstanding of all the Debentures is $10,000,000, then the holder of the $500,000 Debenture shall receive $250,000: $500,000 x $5,000,000/ $10,000,000.
The Debentures were offered pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) between the Company and the holders of the Debentures entered into on October 26, 2022.

In addition, pursuant to the SPA, the holders of the Debentures were each issued a warrant to purchase shares of the Common Stock (the “Warrant”). Each Warrant provides for the purchase by the applicable holder of Debentures of a number shares of Common Stock equal to the total principal amount of the Debenture purchased by such holder divided by the average of the VWAP of the Common Stock during the ten (10) trading day period immediately prior to the Closing Date (the “Warrant Shares”). The exercise price of the Warrants is 125% of the conversion price of the Debentures. A total of 7,449,007 Warrants were issued on the Closing Date.
Pursuant to the SPA, the holders of the Debentures were each issued a number of shares of Common Stock (the “Incentive Shares”) equal to 35% of such holder’s subscription amount (without regard for any beneficial ownership limitations) divided by the lower of (i) the closing price of the Common Stock on the Closing Date or (ii) the average of the VWAP of the Common Stock during the ten (10) trading day period immediately prior to the Closing Date. A total of 2,216,080 shares of Common Stock were issued on the Closing Date.
Pursuant to the SPA, the Company agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to complete a Qualified Offering within six months of the Closing Date. The Company agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the filing of a registration statement with the Commission covering the resale of the Incentive Shares, the Warrant Shares, and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Debentures (collectively, the “Underlying Shares”) at the same time as the Qualified Offering and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective at the time of the Qualified Offering.
