(i) November 2023 Private Placement

On November 27, 2023, the Company sold 0.2 million shares of its common stock in a private placement to individual members of its Board of Directors and management at a price of $6.10 per share, for aggregate proceeds of $1.3 million.

(j) March 2024 Registered Direct Offerings

On March 15, 2024 and March 21, 2024, the Company entered into two separate securities purchase agreements with the same institutional investor. When aggregating the results of both purchase agreements, the Company issued 0.4 million shares for net proceeds of $3.9 million in registered direct offerings.

(k) April 2024 ELOC Purchase Agreement

On April 25, 2024, the Company entered into an ELOC Purchase Agreement with an ELOC Purchaser, whereby we could offer and sell, from time to time at our sole discretion, and whereby the ELOC Purchaser committed to purchase, up to 2.0 million shares of shares of the Company’s common stock. The term of the agreement was until the expiration of the Company’s active S-3 Registration Statement, unless earlier terminated or exhausted. Due to certain pricing and settlement provisions, the ELOC Purchase Agreement qualified as a standby equity purchase agreement and included an embedded put option and embedded forward option. The Company therefore accounted for the ELOC Purchase Agreement as a derivative measured at fair value, with changes in the fair value recognized in the statements of operations within other financing costs. The Company initially recognized a derivative liability of $1.7 million related to the purchased put option at inception of the ELOC Purchase Agreement. The Company then expensed the difference between the discounted purchase price of the settled forward and the fair value of shares on the date of settlement as a noncash financing issuance cost. The Company recognized $1.3 million of noncash financing costs during the year ended December 31, 2024 related to the discounted purchase price of the settled forward and the underlying fair value of the shares issued.

Upon execution of the ELOC Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to the ELOC Purchaser 33,937 shares of Common Stock as commitment shares (the “Commitment Shares”). The fair value of the Commitment Shares was $0.5 million, which was expensed within other financing costs in the statements of operations during the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company also incurred issuance costs of $0.1 million, consisting of legal costs incurred in connection with the ELOC Purchase Agreement, which were expensed within other financing costs in the statements of operations during the year ended December 31, 2024. The ELOC Purchaser agreed that during the term of the Purchase Agreement, neither it nor any of its affiliates would engage in any short sales or hedging transactions involving the Company’s common stock.

Under the ELOC Purchase Agreement, on any business day (the “Purchase Date”), if the Company’s stock price is greater than or equal to $5.00 per share, the Company could direct the ELOC Purchaser to purchase common stock. The ELOC Purchaser’s committed obligation under any single Fixed Purchase could not exceed the lower of 25,000 shares of Common Stock or $250,000 (“Fixed Purchases”).

In addition, the Company could also direct the ELOC Purchaser, on any trading day in which the Company submitted a Fixed Purchase notice for the maximum amount allowed for such Fixed Purchase, to purchase an additional amount of the Company’s common stock (a “VWAP Purchase”). The ELOC Purchaser’s committed obligation under any single VWAP Purchase could not exceed a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the lesser of (i) 300% of the number of Shares directed by the Company to be purchased by the Investor pursuant to the corresponding Fixed Purchase Notice and (ii) 30% of the trading volume in the Company’s Common Stock on the NYSE during the applicable VWAP Purchase Period on the applicable VWAP Purchase Date (“VWAP Purchase Maximum Amount”).

The Company could also direct the ELOC Purchaser, on any trading day for which a VWAP Purchase had been completed and all of the shares had been placed, to purchase an additional amount of the Company’s common stock (an “Additional VWAP Purchase”). The ELOC Purchaser’s committed obligation under any single Additional VWAP Purchase was the lesser of (i) 300% of the number of Shares directed by the Company to be purchased by the Investor pursuant to the corresponding Fixed Purchase Notice and (ii) a number of Shares equal to (A) the Additional VWAP Purchase Share Percentage multiplied by (B) the trading volume of shares of Common Stock traded during the applicable Additional VWAP Purchase Period on the applicable Additional VWAP Purchase Date for such Additional VWAP Purchase (“Additional VWAP Purchase Maximum Amount”). The applicable pricing structure for each purchase type is outlined below:

The purchase price per share for Fixed Purchases (“Fixed Purchase Price”) equals 95% of the lesser of:

the daily volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s Common Stock on the NYSE for the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the applicable Fixed Purchase Date for such Fixed Purchase; and
the Closing Sale Price of a share of Common Stock on the applicable Fixed Purchase Date.

The purchase price per share for VWAP Purchases (“VWAP Purchase Price”) equals 95% of the lesser of:

the VWAP during the applicable VWAP Purchase Period during the applicable VWAP Purchase Date.
the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the applicable VWAP Purchase Date.

The purchase price per share for Additional VWAP Purchases (“Additional VWAP Purchase Price”) equals 95% of the lesser of:

the VWAP for the applicable Additional VWAP Purchase Period during the applicable Additional VWAP Purchase Date; and
the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on such applicable Additional VWAP Purchase Date.

In addition to the commitment shares referenced above, a total of 2.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock were issued under the ELOC Purchase Agreement during the year ended December 31, 2024, for net proceeds of $14.6 million. The facility was fully exhausted during 2024 and no further shares are available to issue as of December 31, 2024.
