Material Changes
The primary material change reported is the successful resolution of a Nasdaq delisting risk.

Following a compliance plan submitted on November 9, 2023, and an extension granted until December 15, 2023, the Company amended the terms of the Common Warrants to defer exercisability until shareholder approval is obtained. On December 14, 2023, Nasdaq confirmed the Company is now in compliance and the matter is closed.
