Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the final net proceeds after deducting the 7% placement agent fee and other offering expenses.
- Confirm the total number of outstanding shares post-offering to assess dilution impact.
- Review the specific terms of the "cashless basis" exercise provision for the warrants.
- Check subsequent filings for the registration status of the warrants after the six-month period.
