Key Financial Metrics and Transaction Details
The Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Alumni Capital LP for total consideration of $300,000. The transaction structure includes:
- Promissory Note: Principal amount of $360,000 issued with a $60,000 original issue discount (OID).

- Warrant Term: Exercisable for five years from the effective date.
Material Changes and Terms
This filing represents a new direct financial obligation and the issuance of unregistered equity securities. Key terms affecting future financial position include:
- Conversion Rights: The Note is convertible into Common Stock only upon an event of default. The conversion price is set at 80% of the lowest traded price during the 20 business days prior to the conversion notice.
- Ownership Limits: Conversion is subject to a Beneficial Ownership Limitation (9.99%) and an Exchange Cap (19.99% of outstanding shares).
- Repayment Priority: If the Company receives net cash proceeds between $1,000,000 and $2,000,000 while the Note is outstanding, the Investor is entitled to 50% of the outstanding amounts. Proceeds exceeding $2,000,000 trigger full repayment.
- Share Reserve: The Company must reserve at least three times the number of shares issuable upon full conversion of the Note.
Guidance, Risks, and Contingencies
The filing does not provide updated financial guidance or management commentary on future revenue or profit outlooks. However, it outlines specific risks and contingencies associated with the Note:
- Events of Default: Include failure to pay principal or interest, material breaches of covenants, insolvency, cessation of trading, or financial statement restatements.
- Regulatory Status: Conversion pricing adjustments may occur if the Company loses DWAC eligibility, faces a DTC "chill," or ceases to be a reporting issuer.
- Liquidity Impact: The transaction provides immediate cash of $300,000 but creates a liability of $360,000 due in approximately three months, with potential dilution upon default.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the Company's current cash position and ability to repay the $360,000 principal plus interest by July 1, 2025.
- Review the full text of Exhibits 10.1 (Purchase Agreement), 10.2 (Promissory Note), and 4.1 (Warrant) for additional covenants not summarized here.
- Monitor the Company's stock price volatility, as the conversion price upon default is based on the lowest traded price over a 20-day period.
- Assess the potential dilution impact if the Company triggers the "net cash proceeds" repayment clauses or if a default occurs.
- Confirm the Company's continued compliance with Nasdaq listing standards and reporting obligations to avoid triggering conversion price adjustments.
