Introductory Note.

The offering price of the Common Stock was $1.75 per share. the closing price of the Common Stock on April 4, 2023.

In connection with the offering, the Company is required to file an initial registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock issued to the Investor within 120 calendar days of the closing date and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective within 150 days following the closing date.

On April 11, 2023, the Private Placement closed.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
