On January 31, 2025, the Company announced the appointment of David Kowalczyk as its new Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer ("CFOO"), effective March 1, 2025. In connection with this appointment, Phillip Massie Price, the Company’s Interim Chief Financial Officer, and the Company mutually agreed that Mr. Price will step down as Interim CFO effective March 1, 2025. Mr. Price will continue to serve as the Company’s principal financial officer until April 30, 2025, after which he will depart from the Company. Mr. Kowalczyk is an experienced finance executive with over 20 years of professional experience across multiple industries and ownership structures. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Economics and Business Administration, a Master of Science in Accounting and Auditing, and a Master of Science in Finance and Investments from Copenhagen Business School. He also has extensive experience in technology and R&D-driven companies.

 

On March 26, 2025, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement originally dated June 22, 2022, with the holders of the Company’s senior promissory notes. In connection with the Second Amendment, the parties executed Allonge No. 2 to each of the existing amended notes, resulting in an extension of the maturity date from January 1, 2026 to May 1, 2027.

 

Additionally, beginning on January 1, 2026, the notes will bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum, payable semi-annually. In the event of a default or if the notes are not repaid on or before the new maturity date, the interest rate increases to 13% per annum, with a monthly 1% step-up up to a cap of 16% per annum, payable monthly. Accrued interest (excluding default interest) may be paid in cash or in shares of common stock, at the Company’s election, subject to certain limitations.

 

As part of the transaction, the Company and the noteholders also agreed to amend and restate the related warrants, reducing the exercise price from $5.20 to $2.00 per share and extending the expiration date to December 31, 2029.

 

The Company evaluated the Second Amendment under ASC 855 and concluded that it represents a non-recognized subsequent event. While it does not impact the financial statements as of December 31, 2024, it is disclosed herein due to its significance.
