The initial principal payment of $12,500 to Brookfield was due on or prior to February 21, 2025 and has been paid. Any remaining outstanding principal amount of the Loan (the “Remaining Amount”), plus accrued interest will be repayable in cash upon the earlier of (i) October 3, 2027, (ii) the occurrence of certain change of control events or (iii) a breach of the Loan Agreement.

Take-Private Proposal
On April 3, 2025, the Board received a preliminary, nonbinding proposal from Carbon Direct Capital offering to acquire all of the outstanding shares of our common stock for $0.02 per share (the “Take-Private Proposal”). Carbon Direct Capital is the holder of the Company’s outstanding $40,150 Convertible Note, which upon conversion, would entitle it to receive shares of common stock representing approximately 14.6% of the Company’s common stock based on the total number of shares of common stock of the Company outstanding on April 10, 2025. The Strategic Committee of the Board is currently reviewing, evaluating and negotiating the Take-Private Proposal in consultation with the Company’s financial advisor and legal counsel.
