Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the Company's current outstanding indebtedness levels to assess the impact of the intended debt reduction.
- Monitor the actual volume of shares sold under the ATM agreement, as the $100 million figure represents a maximum cap, not a guaranteed raise.
- Review the full text of the At-the-Market Sales Agreement (Exhibit 1.1) for commission rates and termination provisions.
- Check subsequent filings for the actual proceeds generated and their specific allocation between debt repayment and general corporate purposes.
