- Cash Proceeds: Gross proceeds of $17,000,000 (issued at a 15% original issue discount); net cash received was $16,975,000 after a $25,000 fee.
- Interest Rate: 0% per annum initially; increases to 18% upon an Event of Default.

Material Changes and Agreements
The filing reports two primary material changes:
- Debt Instrument: The company secured immediate liquidity through the $20 million note, which includes a 30-day repayment waterfall favoring the investor if the company uses its Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (SEPA) to satisfy installment payments.
- SPA Amendment: The company amended its February 20, 2026 SPA with Matania (Mati) Moskovich to add a critical condition precedent (the "Belrise Condition"). The purchase of shares is now expressly conditioned on the execution of a joint venture agreement in India between the seller's affiliate and Belrise Industries Limited.

- Termination Rights: The company may terminate the SPA without liability if the Belrise Condition is not satisfied or waived by March 31, 2026 (the "Belrise Long-Stop Date").
- Closing Deadline: The SPA closing is now scheduled no later than June 30, 2026, contingent on the Belrise Condition.
- Registration Obligations: The company must file a resale registration statement within 45 days of investor demand and a Form S-1 for warrant shares within 90 days of closing.
- Default Risk: Failure to meet payment obligations triggers a significant interest rate increase to 18% and potential dilution via conversion at a discounted price.
