Effective June 26, 2023, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation, Preferences, Rights and Limitations of the Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) with the Secretary of the State of Delaware that designated 787,754 shares of the Company’s authorized and unissued preferred stock as convertible Series B Preferred Stock at a par value of $0.00001 per share.

 

Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are not entitled to receive dividends and do not have redemption or voting rights. Furthermore, the Series B Preferred Stock does not have a liquidation preference. Shares of Series B Preferred Stock are automatically convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a ratio of 100 shares of common stock for each share of Series B Preferred Stock upon stockholder approval of such conversion.

 

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were 15,759 issued and outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

Holders of the Series X Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends on shares of the Series X Preferred Stock on an as-if-converted-to-Common-Stock basis, without regard to any beneficial ownership limitation described in a letter of transmittal, equal to and in the same form and manner as dividends are paid to holders of the shares of Common Stock. Subject to any requirements of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the Series X Preferred Stock has no voting rights. The Series X Preferred Stock ranks on parity with shares of Common Stock as to distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company.

 

As consideration for the Scienture Merger, the shares of Scienture common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the “Effective Time” of the mergers were converted into the right to receive, in the aggregate, (i) 291,536 shares of the Company’s common stock and (ii) 6,826,753 shares of the Company’s Series X Preferred Stock, each share of which was convertible into one share of common stock.

 

In September 20, 2024, all previously issued shares of Series X Preferred Stock were converted into a total of 6,826,753 shares of common stock. As such, there were no issued and outstanding shares of Series X Preferred Stock as of December 31, 2025.
