Holders As of March 21, 2024, there were 48,244,798 shares of our common stock issued. Our shares of common stock are held by an estimated 256 holders of record and we believe our shares of common stock are held by significantly more beneficial owners. Dividends Common Stock We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock to date. Any future decisions regarding dividends will be made by our board of directors. We do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future but expect to retain earnings to finance the growth of our business. Subject to the restrictions described below and applicable law, our board of directors has complete discretion on whether to pay dividends. Even if our board of directors decides to pay dividends, the form, frequency and amount will depend upon our future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions, amongst and other factors deemed relevant. As long as the Senior Convertible Note (see “ Liquidity and Capital Resources ” in Item 7 below) is outstanding, we may not, directly or indirectly, redeem, or declare or pay any cash dividend or cash distribution on, any of our securities without the prior express written consent of the purchasers of the Senior Convertible Note. Furthermore, our common stock is junior to our preferred stock with respect to certain in-kind dividends payable to the holders of such preferred stock. Series B Preferred Stock The holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends payable as follows: (i) a number of shares of common stock equal to 20% of the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock then held by such holder on March 13, 2025, and (ii) a number of shares of common stock equal to 20% of the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock then held by such holder on March 13, 2026. Under the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, a holder that converts its Series B Preferred Stock prior to March 13, 2025 or March 13, 2026, as the case may be, will not receive the dividend that accrues on such date with respect to such converted Series B Preferred Stock. The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock also will be entitled to dividends equal, on an as-if-converted to shares of common stock basis, to and in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of the common stock when, as, and if such dividends are paid on shares of the common stock.
