On November 3, 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain institutional investors, pursuant to which on November 9, 2021, the Company sold to the investors a series of senior secured convertible notes of the Company, in the aggregate original principal amount of $6,480,000 (the “Notes”), which Notes shall be convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $3.50 (subject to adjustment). The Notes are due and payable on the first anniversary of the Issuance Date and bear interest at a rate of 7% per annum, which shall be payable in cash quarterly in arrears on each Amortization Date (as defined in the Notes) or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Notes. The investors are entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount (as defined in the Notes) at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, but we may not effect the conversion of any portion of the Notes if it would result in either of the investors beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the common stock.
Under the applicable rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), in no event may the Company issue any shares of common stock upon conversion of the Notes or otherwise pursuant to the terms of this Notes if the issuance of such shares of common stock would exceed 19.99% of the shares of the common stock outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the Securities Purchase Agreement and Notes (the “Exchange Cap”), unless the Company (i) obtains stockholder approval to issue shares of common stock in excess of the Exchange Cap or (ii) obtains a written opinion from the Company’s counsel that such approval is not required. In any event, The Company may not issue any shares of its common under the Securities Purchase Agreement or Notes if such issuance or sale would breach any applicable rules or regulations of the Nasdaq.
The Notes will rank senior to all outstanding and future indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries and will be secured by all existing and future assets of the Company, as evidenced by the Security and Pledge Agreement entered into between the Company and the investors on November 9, 2021 (the “Security Agreement”). Additionally, Scott L.

The Securities Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement contain customary representations, warranties, conditions and indemnification obligations of the parties. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in such agreements were made only for purposes of such agreements and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreements and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.
