Under the terms of the December 12, 2022 Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation the Company introduced “Shadow Preferred” classes of stock. A Shadow Preferred class of stock was created for each series of preferred stock outstanding prior to the conversion. Those shareholders who participated in the Company’s December 2022 P2P Transaction obtained the benefit of the Pull-Through Exchange of their Converted Common into shares of the class(es) of Shadow Preferred Stock identical to those previously held (see Note 7). Investors who did not participate, retained ownership only in Converted Common stock.

February 2023

9.4

million in additional P

P Notes, inclusive of $

0.1

. Those shareholders who participated in providing additional funding in

2023

obtained the benefit of the Pull-Through Exchange of their Converted Common into shares of the class(es) of Shadow Preferred Stock identical to those previously held (see Note

. Investors who did not participate retained ownership only in Converted Common stock. For the year ended December

2023

, the Pull-Through Exchange resulted in incremental value to the investors in the P

P Notes of $

30.6

million, measured as the difference in the fair value of the Shadow Preferred Stock shares held after the Pull-Through Exchange to the fair value of the Converted Common held just prior to the Pull-Through Exchange, which has been accounted for as a

financing charge in the consolidated statements of operations.

The holders of the preferred stock have a right to convert their stock into shares of common stock at any time after the date of issuance and on the fifth day prior to the Redemption Date.
