In connection with Term Loan C, the Company issued to the Lenders warrants exercisable for 42,253 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrants”). The Warrants are exercisable in whole or in part, immediately, and have a per share price of $7.10, which was calculated based on the methodology provided in the Agreement.

 

The foregoing is only a summary of the material terms of the Agreement and the Warrants, and does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement and the Warrants.

The Warrants described in Item 2.03 above were offered and sold in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
