+Added: and the Exchange Transactions, the “September 2024 Transactions”).
+Added: The closing of the Common Stock Private Placement was
+Added: conditioned upon receiving stockholder approval at the Annual Meeting.
+Added: SPA represents a forward sale contract obligating the Company to sell a fixed number of shares of its common stock at a fixed price per

+Added: into the SPA and (B) the purchase price of the shares, and recorded approximately $ 0.6 million to additional paid-in capital as of September
+Added: Because of the concurrent execution of the SPA and the Exchange Agreements, and because the investors in the SPA are also parties
