The company also issued warrants for 112,531 shares at $1.96 and paid Rodman & Renshaw a 7% cash fee plus 1% management fee. Net proceeds were approximately $1.0 million. The lower conversion price reflects the stock's decline toward its 52-week low and increases potential dilution for existing shareholders.
