Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the company's current cash position to assess ability to service the 12% monthly interest payments on the $125,000 note.
- Review the full Engagement Letter (Exhibit 10.1) to understand the specific definition of "transaction" and the calculation of success fees.
- Confirm the current trading price of the common stock relative to the $0.10 warrant exercise price to evaluate immediate dilution risk.
- Monitor for any announcements regarding strategic alternatives or M&A activity that would trigger the advisor's 10% warrant option.
