is currently listed for trading on the NYSE American LLC Exchange (“NYSE American”), and the continued listing of our common

stock on the NYSE American is subject to our compliance with a number of listing standards.

Pink Sheets ® (a quotation medium operated by Pink Sheets LLC).

number of shares that could be bought and sold at a given price, which might be depressed by the relative illiquidity, but also through

delays in the timing of transactions and reduction in media coverage.

we are delisted from the NYSE American, your ability to sell your shares of our common stock may be limited by the penny stock restrictions,

which could further limit the marketability of your shares.

If our common stock

is delisted from the NYSE American, it could come within the definition of a “penny stock” as defined in the Exchange Act

and could be covered by Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act.

For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, the broker-dealer

must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction

prior to the sale.

to sell our securities, and accordingly would affect the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the public market.

additional procedures could also limit our ability to raise additional capital in the future.
