The Warrant Amendments also provide that the Company deliver to each of Anson and Intracoastal an additional warrant for Common Stock equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the number of shares exercised pursuant to the applicable Warrant Amendment(s), at an exercise price of $5.35 per share (each, an “Additional Warrant,” and collectively, the “Additional Warrants”). The Additional Warrant provided to Intracoastal is exercisable into 184,193 shares of Common Stock. The Additional Warrant provided to Anson is exercisable into 31,250 shares of Common Stock. The Additional Warrants are exercisable from the date of issuance and expire on the earlier of the close of business on the two year anniversary of (i) the date the registration statement registering the resale of the underlying shares is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), or (ii) the commencement date that such Additional Warrant may be exercised by means of a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 1(c) thereof. The Company has agreed to register the resale of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Additional Warrants. The Additional Warrants were issued, and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Additional Warrants shall be issued, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Regulation D thereunder, as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering.
