The foregoing persons are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Reporting Persons.”
This Schedule 13G relates to 390,056 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Issuer (the “Common Stock”) underlying a warrant with an exercise price of $1.5126 and expiration of April 1, 2032 (the “Warrant”) and 2,203,711 shares of Common Stock underlying the fully funded $20 million first tranche (the “First Tranche”) of a four-tranche, $45 million convertible term loan with a conversion price of $2.2689 and maturity date of April 1, 2026 (the “Term Loan”).
In addition to the First Tranche, the Loan and Security Agreement provides for three subsequent tranches totaling $25.0 million to be funded upon the achievement of certain time-based, clinical and regulatory milestones. The Reporting Persons may elect at any time, following the closing but prior to the full repayment of the Term Loan, to convert into shares of Common Stock up to an aggregate of $5 million in principal amount of the Term Loan then outstanding, at a conversion price of $2.2689.
Pursuant to the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement, the Reporting Persons may not convert any portion of the Term Loan into shares of Common Stock to the extent that, upon conversion, the beneficial ownership of the Reporting Persons (including any affiliates and Section 13(d) “group” members) would exceed 9.985% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “9.985% Cap”) or 19.99% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “19.99% Cap”). The Reporting Persons may waive the 9.985% Cap upon 61 days’ prior written notice to the Issuer, but may not waive the 19.99% Cap.
