SUBSEQUENT EVENTS	NOTE 17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On November 7, 2023, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with certain accredited investors (collectively, the “Investors”) pursuant to which we agreed to sell and issue to the Investors in a private placement transaction (the “Private Placement”) in one or more closings up to an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 of Convertible Notes (the “Notes”). As of November 7, 2023, we issued and sold an aggregate of $2,600,000 of Notes to certain Investors pursuant to the SPA. The gross proceeds from the transaction are approximately $2,600,000, before deducting the Placement Agent’s fees and other estimated offering expenses. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The initial closing of the Private Placement occurred on November 7, 2023. The Notes are due on the fifth anniversary of the issuance date of the Notes and bear simple interest at a rate of 12% per annum, payable in equal monthly installments. The Notes are convertible into shares of our Common Stock, at the option of the holder, at a conversion price of $1.25 per share, which shall not exceed $1.55 per share. In addition, we can require Investors to convert the Notes at the then current conversion price at any time after 90 days from the issue date if the Common Stock has a closing bid price of $1.55 per share or higher on any twenty (20) days within a thirty (30) day period of consecutive trading days, or if a “fundamental change” occurs (as defined in the SPA). The Notes are unsecured and senior to other indebtedness subject to certain exceptions. The offer and sale of the Notes pursuant to the SPA was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder. The SPA included customary representations, warranties and agreements by us, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company, certain other obligations of the parties and termination provisions.
