The information provided in the “question and answer” format below is for your convenience only and is merely a summary of the information contained in this proxy statement. You should read this entire proxy statement carefully.

In this Proxy Statement, we refer to Interactive Strength Inc. as “Forme,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our.”

Why Did You Send Me This Proxy Statement?

Our board of directors is soliciting your proxy to vote at the Special Meeting, including at any adjournments or postponements of the meeting. The Special Meeting will be held in person. You are invited to attend the Special Meeting, however, you do not need to attend the meeting to vote your shares. Instead, you may follow the instructions below to submit your proxy by Internet or mail. We are sending this Proxy Statement to our stockholders of record and beneficial owners as of the close of business on July 9, 2024, which is the record date for the Special Meeting (the “Record Date”). Stockholders are encouraged to vote and submit proxies in advance of the Special Meeting by Internet or mail as early as possible to ensure their votes are counted.

Who May Attend And How To Attend

Our Board has fixed the close of business on July 9, 2024 as the record date for a determination of stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Special Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. Each share of Common Stock represents one vote to be voted on each matter presented at the Special Meeting. Record holders and beneficial owners may attend the Special Meeting.

Beneficial Owners

| ● | If you were a beneficial owner of record as of the Record Date (i.e., you held your Shares in an account at a brokerage firm, bank or other similar agent), you will need to obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other agent. Once you have received a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other agent, it should be emailed to the Company at ir@interactivestrength.com and should be labeled “Legal Proxy” in the subject line. Please include proof from your broker, bank or other agent of your legal proxy (e.g., a forwarded email from your broker, bank or other agent with your legal proxy attached, or an image of your valid proxy attached to your email). Requests for registration must be received by the Company no later than 5 p.m. Eastern Time on August 13, 2024. You will then receive a confirmation of your registration, with a control number, by email from the Company. When you arrive at the meeting, present your unique 12-digit control number. Stockholders who plan to attend the Special Meeting in person must notify the Company at least 24 hours prior to the Special Meeting by contacting the Company's Investor Relations department at (512) 885-0035, or ir@interactivestrength.com.

Who Can Vote?

Stockholders who owned Common Stock at the close of business on the Record Date, are entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. As of the Record Date, there were 2,988,328 shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting.

You do not need to attend the Special Meeting to vote your Shares. Shares represented by valid proxies, received in time for the Special Meeting and not revoked prior to the Special Meeting, will be voted at the Special Meeting. A Stockholder may revoke a proxy before the proxy is voted by delivering to our Secretary a signed statement of revocation or a duly executed proxy card bearing a later date. Any Stockholder who has executed a proxy card but attends the Special Meeting may revoke the proxy and vote at the Special Meeting.

How Many Votes Do I Have?

Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share of Common Stock. Holders of our Common Stock will vote together as a single class.

How Do I Vote?

Whether you plan to attend the Special Meeting or not, we urge you to vote by proxy. All Shares represented by valid proxies that we receive through this solicitation, and that are not revoked, will be voted in accordance with your instructions on the proxy card or as instructed via Internet or telephone. You may specify whether your Shares should be voted for or against each nominee for director, and whether your Shares should be voted for, against or abstain with respect to each of the other proposals. Except as set forth below, if you properly submit a proxy without

giving specific voting instructions, your Shares will be voted in accordance with the Board’s recommendations as noted below. Voting by proxy will not affect your right to attend the Special Meeting. If your Shares are registered directly in your name through our stock transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, or you have stock certificates, you may vote:

| ● | By Internet or by telephone. Follow the instructions you received to vote by Internet or telephone.

| ● | By mail. Complete and mail the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed postage prepaid envelope. Your proxy will be voted in accordance with your instructions. If you sign the proxy card but do not specify how you want your Shares voted, they will be voted as recommended by the Board.

If your Shares are held in “street name” (held in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee), you must provide the bank, broker or other nominee with instructions on how to vote your Shares and can do so as follows:

| ● | By Internet or by telephone. Follow the instructions you receive from your broker to vote by Internet or telephone.

| ● | By mail. You will receive instructions from your broker or other nominee explaining how to vote your Shares.

If you are a beneficial owner of Shares held in street name and do not provide the organization that holds your Shares with specific voting instructions, under the rules of various national and regional securities exchanges, the organization that holds your Shares may generally vote on routine matters, but cannot vote on non-routine matters.

How Does The Board Recommend That I Vote On The Proposals?

The Board recommends that you vote as follows:

| ● | “FOR” the approval of, for purposes of complying with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), upon exercise of certain warrants issued in connection with our registered direct offering pursuant to the May SPA;

| ● | “FOR” the approval of, for purposes of complying with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), the issuance of shares of the Common Stock, upon exercise of certain warrants issued in connection with our best efforts offering pursuant to the July SPA; and
| ● | “FOR” the grant of discretionary authority to the Company’s Board of Directors to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to effect one or more Reverse Stock Splits, provided that, (X) the Company shall not effect Reverse Stock Splits that, in the aggregate, exceed 1-for-100, and (Y) any Reverse Stock Split is completed no later than the first anniversary of the Record Date.

If any other matter is presented, the proxy card provides that your Shares will be voted by the proxy holder listed on the proxy card in accordance with his or her best judgment. At the time this Proxy Statement was printed, we knew of no matters that needed to be acted on at the Special Meeting, other than those discussed in this Proxy Statement.

May I Change or Revoke My Proxy?

If you give us your proxy, you may change or revoke it at any time before the Special Meeting. You may change or revoke your proxy in any one of the following ways:

| ● | by signing a new proxy card and submitting it as instructed above;

| ● | by re-voting by Internet or by telephone as instructed above - only your latest Internet or telephone vote will be counted;

| ● | if your Shares are registered in your name, by notifying the Company’s Secretary in writing before the Special Meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or

| ● | by attending the Special Meeting and voting; however, attending the Special Meeting will not in and of itself revoke a previously submitted proxy unless you specifically request it.

What If I Receive More Than One Proxy Card?

You may receive more than one proxy card or voting instruction form if you hold Shares in more than one account, which may be in registered form or held in street name. Please vote in the manner described under “How Do I Vote?” on the proxy card for each account to ensure that all of your Shares are voted.

What is a Broker Non-Vote?

If your Shares are held in a fiduciary capacity (typically referred to as being held in “street name”), you must instruct the organization that holds your Shares how to vote your Shares. If you sign your proxy card but do not provide instructions on how your broker should vote on “routine” proposals, your broker will vote your Shares as recommended by the Board. If you do not provide voting instructions, your Shares will not be voted on any “non-routine” proposals. This vote is called a “broker non-vote.”

What Vote is Required to Approve Each Proposal and How are Votes Counted?

Proposal 1: To approve the issuance of 20% or more of the Company’s common stock issuable upon the exercise of certain warrants issued in connection with our registered direct offing pursuant to the May SPA, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d). |  | The affirmative vote of a majority of the Shares present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the subject matter at the Special Meeting is required to approve this proposal. This means that the votes cast by the Stockholders “FOR” the approval of the proposal must exceed the number of votes cast “AGAINST” the approval of the proposal. If a Stockholder votes to “ABSTAIN,” it has the same effect as a vote “AGAINST.” Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.
Proposal 2: To approve the issuance of 20% or more of the Company’s common stock issuable upon the exercise of certain warrants issued in connection with our best efforts offing pursuant to the July SPA, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d). |  | The affirmative vote of a majority of the Shares present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the subject matter at the Special Meeting is required to approve this proposal. This means that the votes cast by the Stockholders “FOR” the approval of the proposal must exceed the number of votes cast “AGAINST” the approval of the proposal. If a Stockholder votes to “ABSTAIN,” it has the same effect as a vote “AGAINST.” Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.
Proposal 3: To grant discretionary authority to the Company’s Board of Directors to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to effect one or more consolidations of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, pursuant to which the shares of Common Stock would be combined and reclassified into one share of Common Stock at a ratio within the range from 1-for-5 up to 1-for-100 (each, a “Reverse Stock Split”), provided that, (X) the Company shall not effect Reverse Stock Splits that, in the aggregate, exceed 1-for-100, and (Y) any Reverse Stock Split is completed no later than the first anniversary of the Record Date. |  | The affirmative vote of a majority of the Shares present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the subject matter at the Special Meeting is required to approve this proposal. This means that the votes cast by the Stockholders “FOR” the approval of the proposal must exceed the number of votes cast “AGAINST” the approval of the proposal. If a Stockholder votes to “ABSTAIN,” it has the same effect as a vote “AGAINST.” Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.

What Constitutes a Quorum for the Special Meeting?

The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of thirty three and one third precent of the outstanding shares of each class or series of voting stock then entitled to vote at the Special Meeting constitutes a quorum at the Special Meeting. Votes of Stockholders of record who are present at the Special Meeting or by proxy, abstentions, and broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists.

Householding of Annual Disclosure Documents

The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) previously adopted a rule concerning the delivery of annual disclosure documents. The rule allows us or brokers holding our Shares on your behalf to send a single set of our annual report and proxy statement to any household at which two or more of our Stockholders reside, if either we or the brokers believe that the Stockholders are members of the same family. This practice, referred to as “householding,” benefits both Stockholders and us. It reduces the volume of duplicate information received by you and helps to reduce our expenses. The rule applies to our annual reports, proxy statements and information statements. Once Stockholders receive notice from their brokers or from us that communications to their addresses will be

“householded,” the practice will continue until Stockholders are otherwise notified or until they revoke their consent to the practice. Each Stockholder will continue to receive a separate proxy card or voting instruction card.

Those Stockholders who either (i) do not wish to participate in “householding” and would like to receive their own sets of our annual disclosure documents in future years or (ii) who share an address with another one of our Stockholders and who would like to receive only a single set of our annual disclosure documents should follow the instructions described below:

| ● | Stockholders whose Shares are registered in their own name should contact our transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, and inform them of their request by calling them at (800) 937-5449 or writing them at PO Box 500, Newark, New Jersey 07101.

| ● | Stockholders whose Shares are held by a broker or other nominee should contact such broker or other nominee directly and inform them of their request. Stockholders should be sure to include their name, the name of their brokerage firm and their account number.

Who is Paying for this Proxy Solicitation?

The Company is paying the cost of preparing, printing and mailing these proxy materials. In addition to mailed proxy materials, our directors, officers and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone, or by other means of communication. We will not pay our directors, officers and employees any additional compensation for soliciting proxies. We may reimburse brokerage firms, banks and other agents for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners. We do not intend, but reserve the right, to use the services of a third party solicitation firm to assist us in soliciting proxies.

Who will Count the Votes?

Our Chief Financial Officer will act as the inspector of election and count the votes.

Where Can I Find the Voting Results of the Special Meeting?

We will announce preliminary voting results at the Special Meeting. We will also disclose voting results in a current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days after the Special Meeting, which will be available on our website.

WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY

The Company files annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. You can read and copy any materials that the Company files with the SEC, which you can access over the Internet at http://www.sec.gov. The Company’s website address is www.interactivestrength.com.

PROPOSAL NO. 1

TO APPROVE, FOR PURPOSES OF COMPLYING WITH NASDAQ LISTING RULE 5635(D), THE ISSUANCE OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK UPON EXERCISE OF CERTAIN WARRANTS ISSUED IN CONNECTION WITH OUR REGISTERED DIRECT OFFERING PURSUANT TO THE MAY SPA

Background

On May 20, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “May SPA”) with certain institutional investors (the “May Investors”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell, in a registered direct offering priced at-the-market under the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market (the “Registered Offering”) an aggregate of 5,861,820 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001, of the Company (the “Common Stock”), at an offering price of $0.176 per Share.

Pursuant to the May SPA, in a concurrent private placement (together with the Registered Offering, the “May Offering”), the Company also agreed to issue to the May Investors unregistered warrants (the “May Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 5,861,820 shares of Common Stock (the “May Warrant Shares”), which represented 100% of the shares of Common Stock issued and sold in the Registered Offering.

Under the May SPA, the Company is obligated to hold an annual or special meeting of stockholders on or prior to the date that is ninety (90) days following the closing date of the offering for the purpose of obtaining approval as may be required by the applicable rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Capital Market (or any successor entity) from the stockholders of the Company with respect to the issuance of all of the May Warrants and the May Warrant Shares upon the exercise thereof (the “Stockholder Approval”). The Company also agreed to call a meeting every ninety (90) days thereafter to seek Stockholder Approval until such approval is effective or the May Warrants are no longer outstanding.

The May Warrants have an exercise price of $0.176 per share, will be exercisable beginning on the effective date of the Stockholder Approval (the “Stockholder Approval Date”) and will expire five and one-half years from the Stockholder Approval Date.

The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our Common Stock and the exercise price.

In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the May Warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our Common Stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding Common Stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding Common Stock, the holders of the May Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the May Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the May Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. In addition, in certain circumstances, upon a fundamental transaction, the holder of the May Warrants will have the right to require us to repurchase its May Warrants at the Black-Scholes value; provided, however, that, if the fundamental transaction is not within our control, including not approved by our Board, then the holder will only be entitled to receive the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black-Scholes value of the unexercised portion of the May Warrant that is being offered and paid to the holders of our Common Stock in connection with the fundamental transaction.

Why We Need Stockholder Approval

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) requires stockholder approval in connection with a transaction other than a public offering involving the sale or issuance by the issuer of common stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for common stock) equal to 20% or more of the common stock or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding before the issuance for a price that is less than the lower of: (i) the closing price of the common stock immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement for the issuance of such securities; or (ii) the average

closing price of the common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement for the issuance of such securities. Under Nasdaq’s rules, when an issuance includes common stock (or the equivalent) and warrants, it is necessary to attribute a value of $0.125, plus any amount that the warrant is currently in the money or could be in the money due to adjustments, such as for price protection, to each warrant for purposes of determining whether the common stock portion is at a discount

Stockholder approval is required as the potential issuance of the shares of Common Stock underlying the May Warrants may not constitute a public offering under the Nasdaq Listing Rules and certain pricing conditions, described in the following sentence, were not met. The conditions were that either (i) the offering was an at-the-market offering under Nasdaq rules and such price equaled or exceeded the sum of (a) the applicable “Minimum Price” per share under Nasdaq Rule 5635(d) plus (b) $0.125 per whole share of Common Stock underlying the May Warrants or (ii) the offering was a discounted offering where the pricing and discount (including attributing a value of $0.125 per whole share underlying the May Warrants) met the pricing requirements under Nasdaq’s rules.

Potential Effects of Approval of this Proposal

If approved, this Proposal No. 1 could result in the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the May Warrants subject to their respective beneficial ownership limitations. A concentration of ownership could adversely affect the prevailing market price and liquidity for the shares of Common Stock. Holders of our Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock could own or come to own a smaller percentage of our outstanding shares of Common Stock and, accordingly, a smaller percentage interest in the voting power, liquidation value and book value of the shares of Common Stock.

In addition, upon issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the May Warrants there would be a greater number of shares of our Common Stock eligible for sale in the public markets. Any such sales, or the anticipation of the possibility of such sales, represents an overhang on the market and could depress the market price of our Common Stock. Finally, the reservation of the shares underlying the May Warrants precludes the Company from issuing such shares for other purposes including equity financings and we may be unable to raise additional capital as a result.

Potential Effects of Non-Approval of this Proposal

The Company is not seeking the approval of stockholders to authorize its entry into the transaction described above, as the Company has already done so and such documents are already binding obligations of the Company. The failure of stockholders to approve this proposal will not negate the existing terms of the transactions or the relevant documents, which will remain binding on the Company.

If this proposal is not approved by the stockholders, the May Warrants would not be exercisable over the 19.99% threshold and may result in cash obligations of the Company. The Company’s satisfaction of any such potential cash obligations could materially impair the Company’s working capital. The inability to exercise the May Warrants for Common Stock may also materially adversely affect the Company’s future ability to raise equity or debt capital from third parties on attractive terms, if at all, and also risks significantly impairing the operations, assets and ongoing viability of the Company.

Additionally, the Company is obligated to call a special meeting of its stockholders every ninety (90) days thereafter to seek Stockholder Approval until such approval is effective or the May Warrants are no longer outstanding.

Vote Required

The approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our Common Stock present in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon to be approved. Abstentions are considered votes present and entitled to vote on this proposal, and thus, will have the same effect as a vote “against” the proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. If a proxy card is signed and returned but no direction is made, the persons named in your proxy will vote your shares “FOR” this proposal.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF PROPOSAL NO. 1.

PROPOSAL NO. 2

TO APPROVE, FOR PURPOSES OF COMPLYING WITH NASDAQ LISTING RULE 5635(D), THE ISSUANCE OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK UPON EXERCISE OF CERTAIN WARRANTS ISSUED IN CONNECTION WITH OUR BEST EFFORTS OFFERING PURSUANT TO THE JULY SPA

Background

On July 1, 2024, the Company completed a best efforts public offering (the “July Offering”) of an aggregate of (i) 210,000 shares of Common Stock, (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,626,880 shares of Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrant Shares”), (iii) Series A-1 warrants (the “Series A-1 Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,836,880 shares of Common Stock (the “Series A-1 Warrant Shares”), and (iv) Series A-2 warrants (the “Series A-2 Warrants” and, together with the Series A-1 Warrants, the “July Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,836,880 shares of Common Stock (the “Series A-2 Warrant Shares”). The public offering price for each Share and accompanying Warrants was $1.41 (which is the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on June 28, 2024), and the public offering price for each Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying Warrants was $1.409. The Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.001 per share, are exercisable immediately and expire when exercised in full.

Under the July SPA, the Company is obligated to hold an annual or special meeting of stockholders on or prior to the date that is ninety (90) days following the closing date of the offering for the purpose of obtaining Stockholder Approval. The Company also agreed to call a meeting every ninety (90) days thereafter to seek Stockholder Approval until such approval is effective or the July Warrants are no longer outstanding.

Each July Warrant has an exercise price of $1.41 per share and will be exercisable beginning on the Stockholder Approval Date. The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our Common Stock and the exercise price. The Series A-1 Warrant will expire on the five-year anniversary of the Stockholder Approval Date. The Series A-2 Warrant will expire on the eighteen-month anniversary of the Stockholder Approval Date.

In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the July Warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our Common Stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding Common Stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding Common Stock, the holders of the July Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the July Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the July Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. In addition, in certain circumstances, upon a fundamental transaction, the holder of the July Warrants will have the right to require us to repurchase its July Warrants at the Black-Scholes value; provided, however, that, if the fundamental transaction is not within our control, including not approved by our Board, then the holder will only be entitled to receive the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black-Scholes value of the unexercised portion of the July Warrant that is being offered and paid to the holders of our Common Stock in connection with the fundamental transaction.

Why We Need Stockholder Approval

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) requires stockholder approval in connection with a transaction other than a public offering involving the sale or issuance by the issuer of common stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for common stock) equal to 20% or more of the common stock or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding before the issuance for a price that is less than the lower of: (i) the closing price of the common stock immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement for the issuance of such securities; or (ii) the average closing price of the common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement for the issuance of such securities. Under Nasdaq’s rules, when an issuance includes common stock (or the equivalent) and warrants, it is necessary to attribute a value of $0.125, plus any amount that the warrant is currently

in the money or could be in the money due to adjustments, such as for price protection, to each warrant for purposes of determining whether the common stock portion is at a discount

Stockholder approval is required as the potential issuance of the shares of Common Stock underlying the July Warrants may not constitute a public offering under the Nasdaq Listing Rules and certain pricing conditions, described in the following sentence, were not met. The conditions were that either (i) the offering was an at-the-market offering under Nasdaq rules and such price equaled or exceeded the sum of (a) the applicable “Minimum Price” per share under Nasdaq Rule 5635(d) plus (b) $0.125 per whole share of Common Stock underlying the July Warrants or (ii) the offering was a discounted offering where the pricing and discount (including attributing a value of $0.125 per whole share underlying the July Warrants) met the pricing requirements under Nasdaq’s rules.

Potential Effects of Approval of this Proposal

If approved, this Proposal No. 2 could result in the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the July Warrants subject to their respective beneficial ownership limitations. A concentration of ownership could adversely affect the prevailing market price and liquidity for the shares of Common Stock. Holders of our Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock could own or come to own a smaller percentage of our outstanding shares of Common Stock and, accordingly, a smaller percentage interest in the voting power, liquidation value and book value of the shares of Common Stock.

In addition, upon issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the July Warrants there would be a greater number of shares of our Common Stock eligible for sale in the public markets. Any such sales, or the anticipation of the possibility of such sales, represents an overhang on the market and could depress the market price of our Common Stock. Finally, the reservation of the shares underlying the July Warrants precludes the Company from issuing such shares for other purposes including equity financings and we may be unable to raise additional capital as a result.

Potential Effects of Non-Approval of this Proposal

The Company is not seeking the approval of stockholders to authorize its entry into the transaction described above, as the Company has already done so and such documents are already binding obligations of the Company. The failure of stockholders to approve this proposal will not negate the existing terms of the transactions or the relevant documents, which will remain binding on the Company.

If this proposal is not approved by the stockholders, the July Warrants would not be exercisable over the 19.99% threshold and may result in cash obligations of the Company. The Company’s satisfaction of any such potential cash obligations could materially impair the Company’s working capital. The inability to exercise the July Warrants for Common Stock may also materially adversely affect the Company’s future ability to raise equity or debt capital from third parties on attractive terms, if at all, and also risks significantly impairing the operations, assets and ongoing viability of the Company.

Additionally, the Company is obligated to call a special meeting of its stockholders every ninety (90) days thereafter to seek Stockholder Approval until such approval is effective or the July Warrants are no longer outstanding.

Vote Required

The approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our Common Stock present in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon to be approved. Abstentions are considered votes present and entitled to vote on this proposal, and thus, will have the same effect as a vote “against” the proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. If a proxy card is signed and returned but no direction is made, the persons named in your proxy will vote your shares “FOR” this proposal.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF PROPOSAL NO. 2.

PROPOSAL NO. 3:

TO GRANT DISCRETIONARY AUTHORITY FOR ONE OR MORE REVERSE SPLITS OF THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK

Our Board of Directors has approved, subject to Stockholder approval, by written consent in lieu of a meeting, a proposal to amend our Certificate of Incorporation to effect one or more Reverse Stock Splits of all our outstanding shares of Common Stock, at a ratio between 1-for-5 and 1-for-100, to be determined at the discretion of the Board, subject to the Board’s discretion. If this proposal is approved, the Board may decide not to effect any Reverse Stock Splits if it determines that it is not in the best interests of the Company to do so. The Board does not currently intend to seek re-approval of one or more Reverse Stock Splits for any delay in implementing a Reverse Stock Split unless twelve months have passed from the date of the Record Date (the “Authorized Period”). If the Board determines to implement one or more Reverse Stock Splits, each Reverse Stock Split will become effective upon filing a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later date specified therein.

The text of the proposed Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect each Reverse Stock Split is included as Appendix A to this Proxy Statement (subject to any changes required by applicable law and provided that, since this Proposal No. 3 will result in changes to the Certificate of Incorporation, the Company may file one or more amendments with the Delaware Secretary of State to effect multiple approved proposals).

Approval of the proposal would permit (but not require) our Board of Directors to effect one or more reverse stock splits of our issued and outstanding Common Stock by a ratio of not less than 1-for-5 and not more than 1-for-100, with the exact ratio to be set at a number within this range as determined by our Board of Directors in its sole discretion, provided that (X) the Company shall not effect Reverse Stock Splits that, in the aggregate, exceed 1-for-100, and (Y) any Reverse Stock Split is completed no later than the first anniversary of the Record Date. We believe that enabling our Board of Directors to set the ratio within the stated range will allow the Company to have the flexibility to meets its obligations and provide us with the flexibility to implement any Reverse Stock Split in a manner designed to maximize the anticipated benefits for our Stockholders. In determining a ratio, if any, our Board of Directors may consider, among other things, factors such as:

| ● | the number of shares of Common Stock the Company is obligated to issue or reserve pursuant to any convertible securities of the Company, including shares of convertible preferred stock;

| ● | The aggregate amount of shares that may be reserved under the 2023 Plan;

| ● | the initial or continuing listing requirements of various stock exchanges;

| ● | the historical trading price and trading volume of our Common Stock;

| ● | the number of shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding;

| ● | the then-prevailing trading price and trading volume of our Common Stock and the anticipated impact of the Reverse Stock Split on the trading market for our Common Stock; and

| ● | prevailing general market and economic conditions.

Our Board reserves the right to elect to abandon the Reverse Stock Splits, including any or all proposed reverse stock split ratios, if it determines, in its sole discretion, that Reverse Stock Splits are no longer in the best interests of the Company and its Stockholders.

Depending on the ratio for the Reverse Stock Splits determined by our Board of Directors, if any, no less than five and no more than one hundred shares of existing Common Stock, as determined by our Board of Directors, will be combined into one share of Common Stock. The Company shall not effect Reverse Stock Splits that, in the aggregate, exceed 1-for-100. The Company shall pay Stockholders the fair value of fractions of a share as of the time

when those entitled to receive such fractions are determined. An amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect a Reverse Stock Split, if any, will include only the reverse split ratio determined by our Board of Directors at that time to be in the best interests of our Stockholders.

Reasons for the Reverse Stock Splits

As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K, filed by the Company on February 1, 2024, the Company received a deficiency letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) because, for a period of 30 consecutive business days, the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) failed to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share.

On July 8, 2024, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq stating that the Company has regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by maintaining a minimum closing bid price of the Common Stock of $1.00 or greater per share for the last 14 consecutive business days, from June 14, 2024 through July 5, 2024, and that this matter is now closed.

The Company’s primary reason for approving and recommending one or more Reverse Stock Splits is to: (1) satisfy the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq Capital Market in the event the Company is not in compliance with Minimum Bid Price Requirement ; (2) make the Common Stock more attractive to certain institutional investors which would provide for a stronger investor base; and (3) decrease our Delaware annual franchise tax, which may be calculated based upon the number of issued shares. The Company intends to utilize one or more Reverse Stock Splits in order to meet its contractual obligations and retain enough flexibility for future corporate actions.

Reducing the number of issued shares of Common Stock may, absent other factors, increase the per share market price of the Common Stock. The Company believes that the Reverse Stock Splits may make its Common Stock more attractive to a broader range of investors, as it believes that the current market price of the Common Stock may prevent certain institutional investors, professional investors and other members of the investing public from purchasing stock. Many brokerage houses and institutional investors have internal policies and practices that either prohibit them from investing in low-priced stocks or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending low-priced stocks to their customers. Furthermore, some of those policies and practices may function to make the processing of trades in low-priced stocks economically unattractive to brokers. Moreover, because brokers’ commissions on low-priced stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher-priced stocks, the current average price per share of Common Stock can result in individual Stockholders paying transaction costs representing a higher percentage of their total share value than would be the case if the share price were higher. The Company believes that the Reverse Stock Splits will make the Common Stock a more attractive and cost effective investment for many investors, which in turn would enhance the liquidity of the holders of Common Stock.

Potential Consequences of the Reverse Stock Splits

However, other factors, such as our financial results, market conditions and the market perception of our business may adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Reverse Stock Splits, if completed, will result in the intended benefits described above, that the market price of our Common Stock will increase following the Reverse Stock Splits or that the market price of our Common Stock will not decrease in the future. Additionally, we cannot assure you that the market price per share of our Common Stock after any Reverse Stock Split will increase in proportion to the reduction in the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding before any Reverse Stock Split. Accordingly, the total market capitalization of our Common Stock after any Reverse Stock Split may be lower than the total market capitalization before such Reverse Stock Split. Moreover, because some investors may view any Reverse Stock Split negatively, we cannot assure you that any Reverse Stock Split will not adversely impact the market price of our common stock.

The market price of our Common Stock will also be based on our performance and other factors, some of which are unrelated to any Reverse Stock Split or the number of shares outstanding. Furthermore, the liquidity of our Common Stock could be adversely affected by the reduced number of shares that would be outstanding after any Reverse Stock Split.

Procedure for Implementing Reverse Stock Splits

Each Reverse Stock Split would become effective upon the filing or such later time as specified in the filing (the “Effective Time”) of a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State. The form of a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation effecting a Reverse Stock Split is attached hereto as Appendix A. The exact timing of the filing of the Certificate of Amendment that would effectuate each Reverse Stock Split would be determined by our Board based on its evaluation as to when such action will be the most advantageous to the Company and our Stockholders. In addition, our Board would reserve the right, without further action by the Stockholders, to elect not to proceed with Reverse Stock Splits if, at any time prior to filing any Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect any Reverse Stock Split, our Board, in its sole discretion, determines that it is no longer in our best interest and the best interests of our Stockholders to proceed with any Reverse Stock Splits. Our Board will only have authority to file with the Delaware Secretary of State Certificates of Amendment effecting Reverse Stock Splits within one year from the Record Date.

Effect of any Reverse Stock Split on Holders of Outstanding Common Stock

Depending on the ratio for the Reverse Stock Splits determined by our Board, a minimum of five (5) and a maximum of one hundred (100) shares in aggregate of existing Common Stock will be combined into one new share of Common Stock. The table below illustrates the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance following different Reverse Stock Splits, the approximate number of shares of Common Stock that would remain outstanding following each such Reverse Stock Split, and the number of unreserved shares of Common Stock available for future issuance following each such Reverse Stock Split. The examples in the table below for Reverse Stock Splits range from 1-for-5 to 1-for-100, which is the aggregate ratio allowed under this proposal. Any other ratios selected within such range would result in a number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding following the transaction between 29,883 and 597,666 shares. The information in the following table is based on 2,988,328 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of July 9, 2024 and 350,883 shares reserved for future issuance as of July 9, 2024 assuming conversion of all convertible securities of the Company.

Proposed Ratio |  | Number of authorized shares of Common Stock |  |  | Approximate Number of Shares of Common Stock Issued and Outstanding Post-Reverse Stock Split |  | Number of Shares of Common Stock Reserved for Issuance (1) |  | Approximate Number of Unreserved Shares of Common Stock Available for Future Issuance Assuming Conversion of all Outstanding Convertible Securities Post-Reverse Stock Split |
1-for-5 |  |  | 900,000,000 |  |  | 597,666 |  |  | 70,177 |  | 667,842 |  |
1-for-100 |  |  | 900,000,000 |  |  | 29,883 |  |  | 3,509 |  | 33,392 |  |

(1) Includes (i) options to purchase 85,293 shares of our common stock and an average weighted exercise price of $101.20 per share as of July 9, 2024; (ii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 247,699 shares of our common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $1.41 per share as of April 9, 2024, and (iii) 17,891 shares of our common stock reserved for future issuance under our 2023 Stock Incentive Plan.

The actual number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding after giving effect to a Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, will depend on the Reverse Stock Split ratio and the number of Reverse Stock Splits, if any, that are ultimately determined by our Board.

Any Reverse Stock Splits will affect all holders of our Common Stock uniformly and will not affect any Stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company, except as described below in “Fractional Shares.” Record holders of Common Stock otherwise entitled to a fractional share as a result of a Reverse Stock Split will receive a full share rather than a fractional share.

In the event the Company effectuates one or more Reverse Stock Splits, the Company will be able to issue substantially more Common Stock. Future issuances of Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock will have a significant dilutive effect on the earnings per share, book value per share, voting power and percentage interest of holdings of current Stockholders. If any Reverse Stock Split is effected, our Stockholders will experience significant dilution as a result of shares of Common Stock being issued pursuant to our outstanding convertible securities, including our outstanding convertible preferred stock. Further, due to our need to raise additional capital in order to fund continuing operations, our Stockholders will also experience significant dilution as a result of shares of Common Stock being issued in connection with future financings that the Company may complete.

The Reverse Stock Splits may result in some Stockholders owning “odd lots” of less than 100 shares of Common Stock. Odd lot shares may be more difficult to sell, and brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd lots are generally somewhat higher than the costs of transactions in “round lots” of even multiples of 100 shares.

After the Effective Time, our Common Stock will have a new Committee on Uniform Securities Identification Procedures (CUSIP) number, which is a number used to identify our equity securities, and stock certificates with the older CUSIP number will need to be exchanged for stock certificates with the new CUSIP number by following the procedures described below. After the Reverse Stock Splits, we will continue to be subject to the periodic reporting and other requirements of the Exchange Act. The bid and ask prices for our Common Stock will continue to be quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “TRNR.”

After the effective time of any Reverse Stock Split, the post-split market price of our Common Stock may be less than the pre-split price multiplied by the Reverse Stock Split ratio. In addition, a reduction in number of shares issued may impair the liquidity for our Common Stock, which may reduce the value of our Common Stock.

No Going Private Transaction

Notwithstanding the decrease in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock following the implementation of the Reverse Stock Split(s), the Board does not intend for this transaction to be the first step in a “going private transaction” within the meaning of Rule 13e-3 of the Exchange Act and the implementation of the proposed Reverse Stock Split(s) will not cause the Company to go private.

Authorized Shares of Common Stock

The Reverse Stock Splits will not change the number of authorized shares of the Company’s Common Stock under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation. Because the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock will decrease, the number of shares of Common Stock remaining available for issuance will increase. Currently, under our Certificate of Incorporation, our authorized capital stock consists of 900,000,000 shares of Common Stock. Please see “Reasons for the Reverse Stock Splits” and“Potential Consequences of the Reverse Stock Splits” for more information.

By increasing the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, the Reverse Stock Splits could, under certain circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect, although this is not the intent of the Board. For example, it may be possible for the Board to delay or impede a takeover or transfer of control of the Company by causing such additional authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to be issued to holders who might side with the Board in opposing a takeover bid that the Board determines is not in the best interests of the Company or its Stockholders. The Reverse Stock Splits therefore may have the effect of discouraging unsolicited takeover attempts. By potentially discouraging initiation of any such unsolicited takeover attempts the Reverse Stock Splits may limit the opportunity for the Company’s Stockholders to dispose of their shares at the higher price generally available in takeover attempts or that may be available under a merger proposal. The Reverse Stock Splits may have the effect of permitting the Company’s current management, including the current Board, to retain its position, and place it in a better position to resist changes that the Company’s Stockholders may wish to make if they are dissatisfied with the conduct of the Company’s business. However, the Board is not aware of any attempt to take control of the Company and the Board of Directors has not approved the Reverse Stock Splits with the intent that they be utilized as a type of anti-takeover device.

Beneficial Holders of Common Stock (i.e. Stockholders who hold in street name)

Upon the implementation of any Reverse Stock Split, we intend to treat shares held by Stockholders through a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee in the same manner as registered Stockholders whose shares of Common Stock are registered in their names. Banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees will be instructed to effect a Reverse Stock Split for their beneficial holders holding our Common Stock in street name. However, these banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees may have different procedures than registered Stockholders for processing any Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who hold shares of our Common Stock with a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee and who have any questions in this regard are encouraged to contact their banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees.

Registered “Book-Entry” Holders of Common Stock (i.e. Stockholders that are registered on the transfer agent’s books and records but do not hold stock certificates)

Certain of our registered holders of Common Stock may hold some or all of their shares electronically in book-entry form with the transfer agent. These Stockholders do not have stock certificates evidencing their ownership of the Common Stock. They are, however, provided with a statement reflecting the number of shares registered in their accounts.

Stockholders who hold shares of Common Stock electronically in book-entry form with the transfer agent will not need to take action (the exchange will be automatic) to receive whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock, subject to adjustment for treatment of fractional shares.

Holders of Certificated Shares of Common Stock

Stockholders holding shares of our Common Stock in certificated form will be sent a transmittal letter by our transfer agent after the effective time of any Reverse Stock Split. The letter of transmittal will contain instructions on how a Stockholder should surrender his, her or its certificate(s) representing shares of our Common Stock (the “Old Certificates”) to the transfer agent in exchange for certificates representing the appropriate number of whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock (the “New Certificates”). No New Certificates will be issued to a Stockholder until such Stockholder has surrendered all Old Certificates, together with a properly completed and executed letter of transmittal, to the transfer agent. No Stockholder will be required to pay a transfer or other fee to exchange his, her or its Old Certificates. Stockholders will then receive a New Certificate(s) representing the number of whole shares of Common Stock that they are entitled as a result of any Reverse Stock Split, subject to the treatment of fractional shares described below. Until surrendered, we will deem outstanding Old Certificates held by Stockholders to be cancelled and only to represent the number of whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock to which these Stockholders are entitled, subject to the treatment of fractional shares. Any Old Certificates submitted for exchange, whether because of a sale, transfer or other disposition of stock, will automatically be exchanged for New Certificates. If an Old Certificate has a restrictive legend on the back of the Old Certificate(s), the New Certificate will be issued with the same restrictive legends that are on the back of the Old Certificate(s).

The Company expects that our transfer agent will act as exchange agent for purposes of implementing the exchange of stock certificates. No service charges will be payable by holders of shares of Common Stock in connection with the exchange of certificates. All of such expenses will be borne by the Company.

STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) UNTIL REQUESTED TO DO SO.

Fractional Shares

The Company does not currently intend to issue fractional shares of Common Stock in connection with any Reverse Stock Split. Therefore, the Company does not expect to issue certificates representing fractional shares of Common Stock. In lieu of any fractional shares, the Company will issue to stockholders of record who would otherwise hold a fractional share because the number of shares of common stock they hold of record before the Reverse Stock Split is not evenly divisible by the Reverse Stock Split ratio that number of shares of common stock, as rounded up to the nearest whole share. No stockholders will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares.

The Company does not expect any Reverse Stock Split and the rounding up of fractional shares to whole shares to result in a significant reduction in the number of record holders. The Company presently does not intend to seek any change in its status as a reporting company for federal securities law purposes, either before or after any Reverse Stock Split.

Effect of the Reverse Stock Split(s) on Employee Plans, Options, Restricted Stock Awards and Units, Warrants, Convertible or Exchangeable Securities, and Preferred Stock.

Based upon the applicable Reverse Stock Split ratio determined by the Board of Directors, proportionate adjustments are generally required to be made to the per share exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding options, warrants, convertible or exchangeable securities, including any preferred stock, entitling the holders to purchase, exchange for, or convert into, shares of Common Stock. This would result in approximately the same aggregate price being required to be paid under such options, warrants, convertible or exchangeable securities upon exercise, and approximately the same value of shares of Common Stock being delivered upon such exercise, exchange or conversion, immediately following such Reverse Stock Split as was the case immediately preceding such Reverse Stock Split. The number of shares deliverable upon settlement or vesting of restricted stock awards will be similarly adjusted, subject to our treatment of fractional shares. The number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to these securities will be proportionately based upon the Reverse Stock Split ratio determined by the Board, subject to our treatment of fractional shares. In the event of any Reverse Stock Split, the maximum number of shares that can be issued under the 2023 Plan (including the ISO share grant limit), the number of shares issued under the 2023 Plan and subject to each award, the exercise prices of outstanding awards, the maximum number of shares that are reserved under the 2023 Plan, and the number of shares available for issuance under the 2023 Plan, shall each be equitably and proportionately adjusted by the 2023 Plan Committee (as defined herein).

Accounting Matters

The proposed amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation will not affect the par value of our Common Stock per share, which will remain $0.0001 par value per share.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split

The following summary describes certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split(s) to holders of our Common Stock.

Unless otherwise specifically indicated herein, this summary addresses the tax consequences only to a beneficial owner of our Common Stock that is (i) a citizen or individual resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation organized in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or (iv) a trust if (1) its administration is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all of its substantial decisions, or (2) it has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person (a “U.S. holder”). This summary does not address all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to any particular investor, including tax considerations that arise from rules of general application to all taxpayers or to certain classes of taxpayers or that are generally assumed to be known by investors. In addition, it does not purport to address all aspects of federal income taxation that may be relevant to Stockholders in light of their particular circumstances or to any Stockholder that may be subject to special tax rules, including without limitation: (i) persons that may be subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law, such as banks, insurance companies, thrift institutions, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, tax-exempt organizations, U.S. expatriates, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax, traders in securities that elect to mark to market and dealers in securities or currencies, (ii) persons that hold our Common Stock as part of a position in a “straddle” or as part of a “hedging,” “conversion” or other integrated investment transaction for federal income tax purposes, or (iii) persons that do not hold our Common Stock as “capital assets” (generally, property held for investment).

If a partnership (or other entity classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is the beneficial owner of our Common Stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will

generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships that hold our Common Stock, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split(s).

This summary is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), U.S. Treasury regulations, administrative rulings and judicial authority, all as in effect as of the date of this Proxy Statement. Subsequent developments in U.S. federal income tax law, including changes in law or differing interpretations, which may be applied retroactively, could have a material effect on the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split(s). There can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service will not take a contrary position to the tax consequences described herein or that such position will be sustained by a court. No opinion of counsel or ruling from the Internal Revenue Service has been obtained with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split(s).

PLEASE CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND FOREIGN INCOME AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT(S) IN YOUR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER TAXING JURISDICTION.

U.S. Holders

Based on the assumption that the Reverse Stock Split(s) will constitute a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code, and subject to the limitations and qualifications set forth in this discussion, the following is a general discussion of the U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to the Reverse Stock Split(s).

We believe that the Reverse Stock Split(s) should be treated as a recapitalization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, a U.S. holder generally should not recognize gain or loss on the Reverse Stock Split(s). The aggregate tax basis of the post-split shares of Common Stock received should be equal to the aggregate tax basis of the pre-split shares of Common Stock exchanged therefore (excluding any portion of the holder’s basis allocated to fractional shares), and the holding period of the post-split shares of Common Stock received will include the holding period of the pre-split shares of Common Stock exchanged. U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors as to the application of the foregoing rules where shares of our Common Stock were acquired at different times or at different prices.

Cash payments received by a U.S. holder of our Common Stock pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split(s) may be subject to information reporting, and may be subject to backup withholding if the U.S. holder fails to provide a valid taxpayer identification number and comply with certain certification procedures or otherwise establish an exemption from backup withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability of the person subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of the tax withheld. If backup withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained provided that the required information is timely furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.

No Appraisal Rights

Under Delaware law and our charter documents, holders of our Common Stock will not be entitled to dissenter’s rights or appraisal rights with respect to any Reverse Stock Splits.

Vote Required

The approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our Common Stock present in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon to be approved. Abstentions are considered votes present and entitled to vote on this proposal, and thus, will have the same effect as a vote “against” the proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. If a proxy card is signed and returned but no direction is made, the persons named in your proxy will vote your shares “FOR” this proposal.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF PROPOSAL NO. 3.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock by (i) each person who, to our knowledge, owns more than 5% of our Common Stock (ii) our current directors and the named executive officers identified under the heading “Executive Compensation” and (iii) all of our current directors and executive officers as a group. We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with applicable rules of the SEC, and the information reflected in the table below is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under applicable SEC rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which a person has sole or shared voting power or investment power and any shares which the person has the right to acquire within 60 days after July 9, 2024 through the exercise of any option, warrant or right or through the conversion of any convertible security. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to the table below and subject to community property laws where applicable, we believe, based on the information furnished to us that each of the persons named in this table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares indicated as beneficially owned.

The information set forth in the table below is based on 2,998,328 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding on July 9, 2024. In computing the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, we deemed to be outstanding all shares of Common Stock subject to options, warrants, rights or other convertible securities held by that person that are currently exercisable or will be exercisable within 60 days after July 9, 2024.

FIRST. The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation is hereby amended by changing Article Fourth, so that, as amended, the following shall be added as Section 4.C (4):

“(4) Reverse Stock Split. Effective at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on [ ], 202[4] (the “Reverse Split Effective Time”), every [ ] shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding or held by the Corporation as treasury shares as of the Reverse Split Effective Time shall automatically, and without action on the part of the stockholders, be combined, reclassified and changed into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Common Stock, without effecting a change to the par value per share of Common Stock, subject to the treatment of fractional interests as described below (the “Reverse Split”). No fractional shares shall be issued in connection with the exchange. In lieu thereof, any person who holds a fraction of one (1) share of Common Stock after the exchange shall have their fraction of one (1) share rounded up to the nearest whole fraction of one (1) share of Common Stock. As of the Reverse Split Effective Time and thereafter, a certificate representing shares of Common Stock prior to the Reverse Split is deemed to represent the number of post-Reverse Split shares into which the pre-Reverse Split shares were reclassified and combined. The Reverse Split shall also apply to any outstanding securities or rights convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Common Stock of the Corporation and all references to such Common Stock in agreements, arrangements, documents and plans relating thereto, or any option or right to purchase or acquire shares of Common Stock, shall be deemed to be references to the Common Stock, or options or rights to purchase or acquire shares of Common Stock, after giving effect to the Reverse Split.”

SECOND. That a resolution was duly adopted by unanimous written consent of the directors of the Corporation, pursuant to Section 242 of the DGCL, setting forth the above-mentioned amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and declaring said amendment to be advisable.
