Each holder of the Company’s Common Stock as of the Record Date received one right for each eight shares of the Company’s Common Stock owned, and each right entitled a holder to purchase $25.00 principal amount of Convertible Notes. The Rights Offering was made pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes issued in the Rights Offering was $30.00 million. The Rights Offering was backstopped by Magnetar Structured Credit Fund, LP, Magnetar Longhorn Fund LP, Magnetar Lake Credit Fund LLC, Purpose Alternative Credit Fund – F LLC, Purpose Alternative Credit Fund – T LLC, and AY2 Capital LLC (each individually, a “Backstop Party” and, collectively, the “Backstop Parties”) in the amount of $2.19 million in aggregate principal.

Upon a change of control, each Convertible Note will mandatorily convert into shares of the Company’s Common Stock equal to: (i) the principal amount of each Convertible Note divided by (ii) the product of (x) the average of the per share volume-weighted average prices for the Common Stock for the 15 consecutive trading days ending on the third business day immediately preceding the date of such change of control, and (y) 0.55. After January 1, 2024, the Company may redeem the Convertible Notes at any time (in whole or in part) at the
Company's option at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest as of the redemption date (the "Redemption Price"). The Redemption Price may be paid: (a) in cash; (b) in shares of Common Stock; or (c) in any combination of (a) and (b).
