This amendment to the convertible promissory note held by Nant Capital, an entity affiliated with the Executive Chairman, introduces significant potential for future dilution. By allowing partial conversion of the $505 million principal amount into common stock at any time, it creates an overhang on the stock. While not an immediate conversion, the increased flexibility for a major insider to convert a substantial debt into equity at their discretion could impact shareholder value. Investors should monitor any subsequent conversion notices from Nant Capital.
