( 2 )Reflects the issuance of senior second lien convertible PIK delayed draw notes (the "Delayed Draw Notes") by the Issuer to the Marathon Funds on January 30, 2024. The aggregate principal amount of the Delayed Draw Notes is $8,000,000, and the Delayed Draw Notes accrue interest at a rate of 8.00% per annum. ( 3 )Subject to earlier conversion in accordance with their terms, the Delayed Draw Notes will become due and payable on August 24, 2028 (the "Maturity Date") in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Delayed Draw Notes outstanding on such date (plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon). ( 4 )All or any portion of the Delayed Draw Notes may be converted at the election of the Reporting Persons at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the Maturity Date into a number of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, determined by dividing (a) the outstanding balance of the principal amount of the Notes being converted (together with the accrued but unpaid interest thereon) as of the applicable conversion date, by (b) a conversion price of $12.50, which such conversion price is subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments in accordance with the terms of the NPA. ( 5 )This number represents the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Delayed Draw Notes if the Reporting Persons elect to convert the Delayed Draw Notes based on the principal amount of the Delayed Draw Notes (as described in footnote 2 above) and the conversion price (as described in footnote 4 above).
