Pursuant to the Debt Repayment Agreement, on September 27, 2024 the Company issued 2,313,435 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), at a price of $16.395 per share of Common Stock, in exchange for the satisfaction of $37,928,768.53 total outstanding principal and accrued interest on certain loans made by the Lender to the Borrower pursuant to a Loan Agreement, dated as of February 3, 2023, as amended (the “Loan Agreement”), and all other obligations of the Company Parties under the Loan Agreement.
