Investor Verification Checklist

- Confirm the total outstanding share count post-transaction to assess the dilution impact of the 10.9 million newly issued shares.
- Review the full text of the Security Agreement (Exhibit 10.2) to understand specific covenants and restrictions on the pledged assets.
- Monitor the 90-day lock-up period for the new warrants to determine when the 7 million warrant shares may enter the market.
