• Special Meeting Set for September 24

  Stockholders of record as of August 10, 2026 will vote on the Stock Issuance Proposal to allow conversion of $112.6M in 5.00% Senior Convertible Notes due 2033.

• Potential 32% Dilution for Existing Holders

  At the maximum conversion rate, noteholders would receive 25,458,575 shares, raising their combined ownership to 32.2% and reducing existing holders from 85.9% to 67.8%.

• Interest Rate Step-Up if Rejected

  If not approved by the Special Meeting, the note interest rate rises from 5% to 10% per year; if not approved by January 8, 2027, it rises to 12% per year.

• Cash Settlement Risk Without Approval

  Without stockholder approval, conversions must be settled in cash at a VWAP-derived price, which could strain liquidity given the company's recent cash burn.

If approved, noteholders could convert at a maximum rate yielding 25.5M shares, taking their combined ownership to 32.2% and diluting existing holders from 85.9% to 67.8%. If rejected, the interest rate jumps from 5% to 10% immediately and to 12% by January 8, 2027, with cash settlement required for conversions—a liquidity strain given the company's shrinking cash pile.
