Resale Registration Finalized

-
Significant Potential Dilution
The registered shares represent approximately 8.9% of the company's current outstanding common stock, creating a substantial potential for dilution.
-
Follows Recent Capital Raise
This registration facilitates the resale of shares underlying warrants issued in recent inducement agreements, which previously raised $4 million for the company, a critical event given the company's going concern warning.
-
Warrants Out-of-the-Money
The exercise prices for the underlying Series A-3 and A-4 warrants ($1.08 per share) and Placement Agent Warrants ($1.35 per share) are currently above the market price of $0.70, making immediate cash exercise unprofitable.

This 424B3 prospectus supplement finalizes the registration for resale of up to 2.9 million shares of common stock by selling stockholders. This action follows the S-1 registration filed on April 24, 2026, and relates to shares underlying warrants issued in recent inducement agreements (as detailed in the April 29 8-K and April 30 PRE 14A). While those prior agreements provided critical capital to the company, this filing enables institutional investors to sell a substantial portion of shares, representing approximately 8.9% of the company's currently outstanding common stock. This creates a significant overhang on the stock, especially in light of the company's existing 'going concern' warning. The exercise prices for the underlying warrants ($1.08 and $1.35 per share) are currently above the market price ($0.70), meaning immediate cash exercise is unlikely unless the stock price recovers.
