NOTE 1 – Description of Business and
Basis of Presentation
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
(the “Company” or “NeuroOne”), a Delaware corporation, is an early-stage medical technology company developing
comprehensive neuromodulation electroencephalogram (cEEG) and stereoelectrocencephalography (sEEG) recording, monitoring, ablation, and
brain stimulation solutions to diagnose and treat patients with epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic
pain due to failed back surgeries and other related neurological disorders.
The Company received 510(k) clearance from the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for its Evo cortical technology in November 2019 and in October 2022, the Company
received 510(k) from the FDA clearance for its Evo sEEG electrode technology for temporary (less than 30 days) use with
recording, monitoring, and stimulation equipment for the recording, monitoring, and stimulation of electrical signals at the subsurface
level of the brain. To date, the Company has had limited commercial sales.
The Company is based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota.
Global Economic Conditions
Generally, worldwide economic conditions remain
uncertain, particularly due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and increased inflation. The general economic and capital market conditions
both in the U.S. and worldwide, have been volatile in the past and at times have adversely affected the Company’s access to capital
and increased the cost of capital. The capital and credit markets may not be available to support future capital raising activity on favorable
terms or at all. If economic conditions continue to decline, the Company’s future cost of equity or debt capital and access to the
capital markets could be adversely affected.
The COVID-19 pandemic that began in late 2019
introduced significant volatility to the global economy, disrupted supply chains and had a widespread adverse effect on the financial
markets. Additionally, the Company’s operating results could be materially impacted by changes in the overall macroeconomic environment
and other economic factors. Changes in economic conditions, supply chain constraints, logistics challenges, labor shortages, the conflict
in Ukraine, and steps taken by governments and central banks, particularly in response to the COVID-19 pandemic as well as other stimulus
and spending programs, have led to higher inflation, which has led to an increase in costs and has caused changes in fiscal and monetary
policy, including increased interest rates.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial
statements have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The condensed financial statements
may not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP; however, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements
and the notes thereto for the year ended September 30, 2022 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K. The condensed balance sheet at
September 30, 2022 was derived from the audited financial statements of the Company.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments,
consisting of only normal recurring adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and
cash flows for the interim periods, have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

NOTE 2 – Going Concern
The accompanying
condensed financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred
losses since inception, negative cash flows from operations, and an accumulated deficit of $ 52.6 million as of December 31, 2022. To date,
the Company’s revenues have not been sufficient to cover its full operating costs, and as such, has been dependent on funding operations
through the issuance of debt and sale of equity securities. The Company does not have adequate liquidity to fund its operations without
raising additional funds and such actions are not solely within the control of the Company. These factors raise substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result
from the outcome of this condition. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds, or the Company’s anticipated operating results
are not achieved, management believes planned expenditures may need to be reduced in order to extend the time period that existing resources
can fund the Company’s operations. The Company intends to fund ongoing activities by utilizing its current cash, cash equivalents
and short-term investments on hand, from product and collaborations revenue and by raising additional capital through equity or debt financings.
If management is unable to obtain the necessary capital, it may have a material adverse effect on the operations of the Company and the
development of its technology, or the Company may have to cease operations altogether.
NOTE 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies
Management’s Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments
with an original contractual maturity on date of purchase of less than or equal to three months to be classified and presented as cash
equivalents on the Balance Sheets. Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company’s cash and cash
equivalents may include demand deposit accounts with large financial institutions, institutional money market funds, U.S. Treasury securities,
and corporate notes and bonds. The Company monitors the creditworthiness of the financial institutions, institutional money market funds,
and corporations in which the Company invests its surplus funds. The Company has experienced no credit losses from its cash and cash equivalent
investments.
Short Term Investment
The Company invests its excess cash in United
States (“U.S.”) Treasury securities and highly rated corporate securities. The Company intends and has the ability to hold
these investments to maturity. Securities with original maturity dates of more than three months are reported as held-to-maturity investments
and are recorded at amortized cost, which approximates fair value due to the negligible risk of changes in value due to interest rates.
All investments held as of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022 had contractual maturities of less than one year. The amortized cost
and estimated fair values of the Company’s investments as of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022 are as follows:

Revenue Recognition
The Company
entered into a development and distribution agreement which has current and future revenue recognition implications. See “Note 7
– Zimmer Development Agreement.”
In determining
the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under its agreements, the Company performs the following
steps: (i) identification of the promised goods or services in the contract; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services
are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction
price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations based
on estimated selling prices; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.
Product
Revenue
Revenues
from product sales are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an
amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. At the inception
of each customer contract, performance obligations are identified and the total transaction price is allocated to the performance obligations.
The Company commenced commercial sales of cEEG strip/grid and electrode cable assembly products in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021.
Cost
of Product Revenue
Cost of
product revenue consists of the manufacturing and materials costs incurred by the Company’s third-party contract manufacturer in
connection with the Company’s strip and grid cortical electrodes (the “Strip/Grid Products”) and outside supplier materials
costs in connection with the electrode cable assembly products (“Electrode Cable Assembly Products”) .
In addition, cost of product revenue includes royalty fees incurred in connection with the Company’s license agreements.
Collaborations
Revenue
A performance
obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account in Account Standards
Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606. (“ASC 606”). Performance obligations may include license rights, development services,
and services associated with regulatory submission and approval processes. Significant management judgment is required to determine the
level of effort required under an arrangement and the period over which the Company expects to complete its performance obligations under
the arrangement. If the Company cannot reasonably estimate when its performance obligations are either completed or become inconsequential,
then revenue recognition is deferred until the Company can reasonably make such estimates. Revenue is then recognized over the remaining
estimated period of performance using the cumulative catch-up method.
As part
of the accounting for collaboration arrangements, the Company must develop assumptions that require judgment to determine the stand-alone
selling price of each performance obligation identified in the contract. The Company uses key assumptions to determine the stand-alone
selling price, which may include forecasted revenues, development timelines, reimbursement rates for personnel costs, discount rates and
probabilities of technical and regulatory success. The Company allocates the total transaction price to each performance obligation based
on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised goods or service underlying each performance obligation.
7
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Licenses
of intellectual property : If the license to the Company’s intellectual property is determined to be distinct from the other
performance obligations identified in the arrangement, the Company recognizes revenues from non-refundable, up-front fees allocated to
the license when the license is transferred to the customer, and the customer can use and benefit from the license. For licenses that
are bundled with other promises, the Company utilizes judgment to assess the nature of the combined performance obligation to determine
whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time and, if over time, the appropriate method of
measuring progress for purposes of recognizing revenue from non-refundable, up-front fees. The Company evaluates the measure of progress
each reporting period and, if necessary, adjusts the measure of performance and related revenue recognition.
Milestone
payments : At the inception of each arrangement that includes milestone payments, the Company evaluates whether the milestones are
considered probable of being achieved and estimates the amount to be included in the transaction price using the most likely amount method.
If it is probable that a significant revenue reversal would not occur, the value of the associated milestone (such as a regulatory submission)
is included in the transaction price. Milestone payments that are not within the control of the Company, such as approvals from regulators,
are not considered probable of being achieved until those approvals are received. When the Company’s assessment of probability of
achievement changes and variable consideration becomes probable, any additional estimated consideration is allocated to each performance
obligation based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised goods or service underlying each performance obligation
and recorded in collaborations revenues based upon when the customer obtains control of each element.
Royalties :
For arrangements that include sales-based royalties, including milestone payments based on the level of sales, and the license is deemed
to be the predominant item to which the royalties relate, the Company recognizes revenue at the later of (a) when the related sales occur,
or (b) when the performance obligation to which some or all of the royalty has been allocated has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s accounting for fair value
measurements of assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring or nonrecurring
basis adheres to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation
techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level
3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
●
Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the Company at the measurement date.
●
Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
●
Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022,
the fair values of cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid and other assets, accounts
payable and accrued expenses approximated their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these assets or liabilities.
There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy
levels during the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Intellectual
Property
The Company
has entered into two licensing agreements with major research institutions, which allow for access to certain patented technology
and know-how. Payments under those agreements are capitalized and amortized to general and administrative expense over the expected useful
life of the acquired technology.
8
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment is recorded at cost and reduced by accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is recognized over the estimated useful
lives of the assets using the straight-line method. The estimated useful life for equipment and furniture ranges from three to seven
years and three years for software. Tangible assets acquired for research and development activities and that have alternative
use are capitalized over the useful life of the acquired asset. Estimated useful lives are periodically reviewed, and, when appropriate,
changes are made prospectively. Software purchased for internal use consists primarily of amounts paid for perpetual licenses to third-party
software providers and installation costs. When certain events or changes in operating conditions occur, asset lives may be adjusted and
an impairment assessment may be performed on the recoverability of the carrying amounts. Maintenance and repairs are charged directly
to expense as incurred.
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
The Company
evaluates its long-lived assets, which consist of licensed intellectual property, property and equipment and right of use assets for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. The Company assesses
the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether or not the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted
expected future cash flows. If the asset is considered to be impaired, the amount of any impairment is measured as the difference between
the carrying value and the fair value of the impaired asset.
Allowances
for Doubtful Accounts
The Company
records a provision for doubtful accounts, when appropriate, based on historical experience and a detailed assessment of the collectability
of its accounts receivable. In estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts, the Company considers, among other factors, the aging of
the accounts receivable, its historical write-offs, the credit worthiness of each customer, and general economic conditions. Account balances
are charged off against the allowance when the Company believes that it is probable that the receivable will not be recovered. Actual
write-offs may be in excess of the Company’s estimated allowance.
Inventories
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out “FIFO” method) or net realizable value. The Company calculates
inventory valuation adjustments for excess and obsolete inventory, when appropriate, based on current inventory levels, movement, expected
useful lives, and estimated future demand of the products and spare parts. The Company’s inventory is currently comprised of cEEG
strip/grid and electrode cable assembly work-in-process and finished good product. The Strip/Grid Products are produced by a third-party
contract manufacturer and the Electrode Cable Assembly Products are obtained from outside suppliers.
Research
and Development Costs
Research
and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. Research and development expenses may include costs incurred in performing research
and development activities, including clinical trial costs, manufacturing costs for both clinical and pre-clinical materials as well as
other contracted services, license fees, and other external costs. Non-refundable advance payments for goods and services that will be
used in future research and development activities are expensed when the activity is performed or when the goods have been received, rather
than when payment is made, in accordance with ASC 730, Research and Development .
Selling,
General and Administrative
Selling,
general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs including stock-based compensation for personnel in functions
not directly associated with research and development activities. Other significant costs include legal and litigation costs relating
to corporate matters, intellectual property costs, professional fees for consultants assisting with regulatory, clinical, product development,
financial matters, and sales and marketing in connection with the commercial sales of the Company’s products.

Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation
in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). Accordingly, compensation
costs related to equity instruments granted are recognized at the grant-date fair value. The Company records forfeitures when they occur.
Stock-based compensation arrangements to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with the applicable provisions of ASC 718.
Income
Taxes
For the
Company, income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities
and their respective tax base and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using
enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred
tax asset will not be realized.
Net Loss Per Share
For the Company, basic loss per share of common
stock is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings or loss per share of common stock
is computed similarly to basic earnings or loss per share except the weighted average shares outstanding are increased to include additional
shares from the assumed exercise of any common stock equivalents, if dilutive. The Company’s warrants, stock options and restricted
stock units are considered common stock equivalents for this purpose. Diluted earnings is computed utilizing the treasury method for the
warrants, stock options and restricted stock units. No incremental common stock equivalents were included in calculating diluted loss
per share because such inclusion would be anti-dilutive given the net loss reported for both the three months ended December 31, 2022
and 2021.
The following potential common shares were not
considered in the computation of diluted net loss per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive for the three months ended December

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards
Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “ Financial Instruments – Credit Losses” . The ASU sets forth a “current
expected credit loss” (“CECL”) model which requires the Company to measure all expected credit losses for financial
instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. This
replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized
cost and applies to some off-balance sheet credit exposures. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019,
including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Recently, the FASB issued the final ASU to delay adoption
for smaller reporting companies to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this
ASU will have a material impact on its financial statements.
In August 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-06 , Debt—Debt
with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic
815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity , which, among other things, provides
guidance on how to account for contracts on an entity’s own equity. This ASU eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion
accounting models for convertible instruments. It also amends the accounting for certain contracts in an entity’s own equity that
are currently accounted for as derivatives because of specific settlement provisions. In addition, this ASU modifies how particular convertible
instruments and certain contracts that may be settled in cash or shares impact the diluted EPS computation. The amendments in this ASU
are effective for smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim
periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The
Company adopted ASU 2020-06 effective October 1, 2022 and the ASU did not have a material impact to our financial statements.

NOTE 4 – Commitments and Contingencies
WARF
License Agreement
The Company has entered into an exclusive start-up
company license agreement with the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (“WARF”) for WARF’s neural probe array and thin
film micro electrode technology (the “WARF License”).
The WARF License grants to the Company an exclusive
license to make, use and sell, in the United States only, products that employ certain licensed patents for a neural probe array
or thin-film micro electrode array and method. The Company agreed to pay WARF a royalty equal to a single-digit percentage of our product
sales pursuant to the WARF License, with a minimum annual royalty payment of $ 50,000 for 2020, $ 100,000 for 2021 and $ 150,000 for
2022 and each calendar year thereafter that the WARF License is in effect. If the Company or any of its sublicensees contest the validity
of any licensed patent, the royalty rate will be doubled during the pendency of such contest and, if the contested patent is found to
be valid and would be infringed by the Company if not for the WARF License, the royalty rate will be tripled for the remaining term of
the WARF License.
WARF may terminate the WARF License on 30 days’
written notice if we default on the payments of amounts due to WARF or fail to timely submit development reports, actively pursue our
development plan or breach any other covenant in the WARF License and fail to remedy such default in 90 days or in the event of certain
bankruptcy events involving us. The WARF License otherwise expires by its terms on the date that no valid claims on the patents licensed
thereunder remain. The Company expects the latest expiration of a licensed patent to occur in 2030. During the three months ended December
31, 2022 and 2021, $ 37,500 and $ 25,000 in royalty fees were incurred related to the WARF License, respectively and
were reflected as a component of cost of product revenue.
Mayo
Agreement
The Company
has an exclusive license and development agreement with the Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research (“Mayo”) related
to certain intellectual property and development services for thin film micro electrode technology (“Mayo Agreement”). If
the Company is successful in obtaining regulatory approval, the Company is to pay royalties to Mayo based on a percentage of net sales
of products of the licensed technology through the term of the Mayo Agreement, set to expire May 25, 2037. During the three
months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, $ 690 and $ 739 in royalty fees were incurred related to the Mayo Agreement, respectively, and
were reflected as a component of cost of product revenue.
Facility Leases
Headquarters Lease
On October 7, 2019, the Company entered into a
non-cancellable lease agreement (the “Lease”) with certain landlords (together, the “Landlord”) pursuant to which
the Company has agreed to lease office space located at 7599 Anagram Drive, Eden Prairie, Minnesota (the “Premises”). The
Company took possession of the Premises on November 1, 2019, with the term of the Lease ending 65 months after such date, unless terminated
earlier (the “Term”). The initial base rent for the Premises is $6,410 per month for the first 17 months, increasing to $7,076
per month by the end of the Term. In addition, as long as the Company is not in default under the Lease, the Company shall be entitled
to an abatement of its base rent for the first 5 months. In addition, the Company will pay its pro rata share of the Landlord’s
annual operating expenses associated with the premises, calculated as set forth in the Lease of which the Company is entitled to an abatement
of these operating expense for the first 3 months.
Los Gatos Lease
On July 1, 2021, the Company entered into a non-cancellable
facility lease (the “Los Gatos Lease”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to rent office space for its research and development
operations located at 718 University Avenue, Suite #111, Los Gatos, California. The facility space under the Los Gatos Lease is approximately
1,162 square feet. The Company took possession of the office space on July 2, 2021. The initial monthly rent under the Los Gatos Lease
was approximately $ 4,241 . On November 4, 2022, the Los Gatos Lease was extended for an additional two years to
December 31, 2024. The rent under the extended Los Gatos Lease ranges from $ 4,453 to $ 4,632 per month beginning on January 1, 2023.
During the three months ended December 31, 2022

In the ordinary course of business, from time
to time, the Company may be subject to a broad range of claims and legal proceedings that relate to contractual allegations, patent infringement
and other claims. The Company establishes accruals when applicable for matters and commitments which it believes losses are probable and
can be reasonably estimated. To date, no loss contingency for such matters and potential commitments have been recorded. Although it is
not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these matters or potential commitments, the Company is of the opinion that the ultimate
resolution of these matters and potential commitments will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial
position.

NOTE 7 – Zimmer Development Agreement
On July
20, 2020, the Company entered into an exclusive development and distribution agreement (as amended from time to time, the “Zimmer
Development Agreement”) with Zimmer, Inc. (“Zimmer”), pursuant to which the Company granted Zimmer exclusive global
rights to distribute the Strip/Grid Products and electrode cable assembly products (the “Electrode Cable Assembly Products”).
Additionally, the Company granted Zimmer the exclusive right and license to distribute certain depth electrodes developed by the Company
(“sEEG Products”, and together with the Strip/Grid Products and Electrode Cable Assembly Products, the “Products”).
The parties have agreed to collaborate with respect to development activities under the Zimmer Development Agreement through a joint development
committee composed of an equal number of representatives of Zimmer and the Company.
Under the
terms of the Zimmer Development Agreement, the Company is responsible for all costs and expenses related to developing the Products, and
Zimmer is responsible for all costs and expenses related to the commercialization of the Products. In addition to the Zimmer Development
Agreement, Zimmer and the Company have entered into a Manufacturing and Supply Agreement (the “MS Agreement”) and a supplier
quality agreement (the “Quality Agreement”) with respect to the manufacturing and supply of the Products.
Except as
otherwise provided in the Zimmer Development Agreement, the Company is responsible for performing all development activities, including
non-clinical and clinical studies directed at obtaining regulatory approval of each Product. Zimmer has agreed to use commercially reasonable
efforts to promote, market and sell each Product following the “Product Availability Date” (as defined in the Zimmer Development
Agreement) for such Product.
Pursuant
to the Zimmer Development Agreement, Zimmer made an upfront initial exclusivity fee payment of $ 2.0 million (the “Initial Exclusivity
Fee”) to the Company in fiscal year 2020.
On August
2, 2022, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to the Zimmer Development Agreement with Zimmer. Pursuant to the terms and conditions
of the Third Amendment, Zimmer made a $ 3.5 million payment to the Company. In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements
contained in the Zimmer Development Agreement, the fee and milestone payment provisions in the Zimmer Development Agreement were replaced
with the following below:
● $ 1.5 million for the sEEG Exclusivity Maintenance Fee; and
● $ 2.0 million for satisfaction of each of the milestone events related to the design of sEEG products set forth in the Development Agreement even though the satisfaction was after the deadlines originally identified.
In addition,
in connection with the Third Amendment, the Company issued Zimmer a warrant to purchase common stock (the “2022 Zimmer Warrant”).
The 2022 Zimmer Warrant is exercisable for up to an aggregate of 350,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The 2022
Zimmer Warrant has an exercise price of $ 3.00 per share, will be exercisable commencing six months from the issuance date, and will
expire on August 2, 2027. The fair value of the 2022 Zimmer Warrant of $ 0.1 million was based on the Black-Scholes pricing model. Input
assumptions used were as follows: a risk-free interest rate of 2.9 %; expected volatility of 53.5 %; expected life of 5 years; expected
dividend yield of 0 %; and the underlying fair market of the common stock. The 2022 Zimmer Warrant was classified in stockholders’
equity as the number of shares were fixed and determinable, no cash settlement was required and no other provisions precluded equity treatment.

The Zimmer Development Agreement will expire on
the tenth anniversary of the date of the first commercial sale of the last Products to achieve a first commercial sale, unless terminated
earlier pursuant to its terms. Either party may terminate the Zimmer Development Agreement (x) with written notice for the other party’s
material breach following a cure period or (y) if the other party becomes subject to certain insolvency proceedings. In addition, Zimmer
may terminate the Zimmer Development Agreement for any reason with 90 days’ written notice, and the Company may terminate the Zimmer
Development Agreement if Zimmer acquires or directly or indirectly owns a controlling interest in certain competitors of the Company.
The license rights granted to Zimmer under the Strip/Grid Distribution License and sEEG Distribution License shall be exclusive from the
effective date of the Third Amendment until the end of the term.
The Zimmer Development Agreement and Third Amendment
were accounted for under the provisions of ASC 606. In accordance with the provisions under ASC 606, the Company identified five performance
obligations under the Zimmer Development Agreement and Third Amendment: (1) the Company’s obligation to grant Zimmer access to its
intellectual property; (2) completion of sEEG Product development; (3) completion of Strip/Grid Product development; (4) the provision
of sEEG exclusivity maintenance; and (5) completion of sEEG design modifications as requested by Zimmer. All performance obligations under
the Zimmer Development Agreement and Third Amendment were met as of December 31, 2022.
The aggregate transaction price associated with
the Zimmer Development Agreement and Third Amendment was $ 5.4 million comprising the Initial Exclusivity Fee of $ 2.0 million and the $ 3.5
million payment under the Third Amendment, less the fair value of the 2022 Zimmer Warrant of $ 0.1 million. The transaction price was allocated
between performance obligations based on their relative standalone selling prices. The Company used a market based valuation approach
and an expected cost plus margin approach with regard to estimating the standalone selling price for the performance obligations.
In October 2022, the Company received 510(k) clearance
from the FDA for its Evo sEEG electrode technology for temporary (less than 30 days) use with recording, monitoring, and stimulation equipment
for the recording, monitoring, and stimulation of electrical signals at the subsurface level of the brain. Accordingly, the Company recognized
revenue in the amount of $ 1,455,188 during the three months ended December 31, 2022 related to the completion of the sEEG exclusivity
maintenance milestone. During the three months ended December 31, 2021, the Company recognized revenue in the amount of $ 6,374 related
to sEEG Product development.
A reconciliation of the closing balance of deferred
revenue related to the Zimmer Development Agreement and Third Amendment is as follows during the three months ended as of December 31,
2022 and 2021:

NOTE 10 – Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the three months ended
December 31, 2022 and 2021 was zero percent. As a result of the analysis of all available evidence as of December 31, 2022 and September
30, 2022, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets. Consequently, the Company reported no income
tax benefit during the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. If the Company’s assumptions change and the Company
believes that it will be able to realize these deferred tax assets, the tax benefits relating to any reversal of the valuation allowance
on deferred tax assets will be recognized as a reduction of future income tax expense. If the assumptions do not change, each
period the Company could record an additional valuation allowance on any increases in the deferred tax assets.
NOTE 11 – Stockholders’ Equity
At-The-Market Offering
On December 21, 2022, the Company entered into
a Capital on Demand TM Sales Agreement with JonesTrading Institutional Services LLC (“JonesTrading”) to create an
at-the-market offering program (“ATM”) under which the Company may offer and sell shares having an aggregate offering price
of up to $ 14.5 million. JonesTrading is entitled to a commission at a fixed commission rate equal to up to 3 % of the gross proceeds. As
of December 31, 2022, no issuances of securities have occurred in connection with the ATM, and deferred issuance costs in the amount of
$ 103,787 have been incurred in connection with the ATM.
Public Offering
On October 13, 2021, the Company, entered
into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC, as underwriter (the “Underwriter”),
relating to the issuance and sale of 3,750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price to the public of $ 3.20 per share.
