Item 4. Ownership
Provide the following information regarding the aggregate number and percentage of the class of securities of the issuer identified in Item 1.
The information as of the date of the event which requires filing of this statement required by Items 4(a) – (c) is set forth in Rows 5 – 11 of the cover page for each Reporting Person hereto and is incorporated herein by reference for each such Reporting Person. The percentage set forth in Row 11 of the cover page for each Reporting Person is based on 549,392 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of May 22, 2024 as represented in the Company’s Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 22, 2024, and assumes the exercise of the Company’s reported warrants (the “Reported Warrants”) and the exercise of the Company’s reported pre-funded warrants (the “Reported Pre-Funded Warrants”), subject to the Blockers (as defined below).
Pursuant to the terms of the Reported Pre-Funded Warrants, the Reporting Persons cannot exercise the Pre-Funded Warrants to the extent the Reporting Persons would beneficially own, after any such exercise, more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and pursuant to the terms of the Reported Warrants, the Reporting Persons cannot exercise the Warrants to the extent the Reporting Persons would beneficially own, after any such exercise, more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (collectively, the “Blockers”), and the percentage set forth in Row 11 of the cover page for each Reporting Person gives effect to the Blockers. Consequently, as of the date of the event which requires the filing of this statement, the Reporting Persons were not able to exercise all of the Reported Pre-Funded Warrants or any of the Reported Warrants due to the Blockers.
As of the date of the event which requires filing of this statement, Iroquois Master Fund Ltd. (“Iroquois Master Fund”) held 37,800 shares of Common Stock, Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase 35,000 shares of Common Stock and Reported Warrants to purchase 146,600 shares of Common Stock (subject to the Blockers), and Iroquois Capital Investment Group LLC (“ICIG”) held 16,200 shares of Common Stock, Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase 15,000 shares of Common Stock and Reported Warrants to purchase 64,150 shares of Common Stock (subject to the Blockers).
Mr. Abbe shares authority and responsibility for the investments made on behalf of Iroquois Master Fund with Ms. Kimberly Page, each of whom is a director of the Iroquois Master Fund. As such, Mr. Abbe and Ms. Page may each be deemed to be the beneficial owner of all shares of Common Stock held by and underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants and Reported Warrants (each subject to the Blockers) held by, Iroquois Master Fund. Iroquois Capital is the investment advisor for Iroquois Master Fund and Mr. Abbe is the President of Iroquois Capital. Mr. Abbe has the sole authority and responsibility for the investments made on behalf of ICIG. As such, Mr. Abbe may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of all shares of Common Stock held by and underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants and Reported Warrants (each subject to the Blockers) held by, Iroquois Master Fund and ICIG. The foregoing should not be construed in and of itself as an admission by any Reporting Person as to beneficial ownership of shares of
Common Stock owned by another Reporting Person. Each of the Reporting Persons hereby disclaims any beneficial ownership of any such shares of Common Stock except to the extent of their pecuniary interest therein.
Item 5. Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class
