• Shareholder Vote on Restructuring Plan

  Shareholders will vote on June 17, 2026, on a comprehensive restructuring plan, including charter amendments, a reverse stock split, and new equity issuances, all of which are inter-conditional.

• Massive Shareholder Dilution

  The proposed equity issuances as part of the restructuring will result in approximately 96% dilution for existing common stockholders.

• 1-for-50 Reverse Stock Split Proposed

  A reverse stock split at a 1-for-50 ratio is proposed to increase the per-share price and regain compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement, following a delisting notice received on May 1, 2026.

• Survival Contingent on Approval

  Failure to approve the restructuring proposals would prevent the company from completing the Restructuring Transaction, potentially leading to in-court restructuring initiatives with likely no recovery for existing shareholders.
