The combined public offering price of one pre-funded warrant, one Series A warrant, one Series B warrant and one Series C warrant, which are being sold together but are immediately separable, is $0.7499, which is equal to the combined offering price of the pre-funded warrants, Series A warrants, Series B warrants and Series C warrants, less the $0.0001 per share exercise price of the pre-funded warrants.

The Series A warrants will be exercisable the earlier of (i) December 1, 2025 and (ii) the trading day immediately following a period of five consecutive trading days on which the closing sale price of our common stock is a minimum of $1.50 per share, with an exercise price of $0.75 per share of common stock, and will expire five years from the date of issuance. In addition, each Series A warrant will immediately expire in proportion to the extent that the corresponding pre-funded warrant offered hereby is exercised on or prior to December 1, 2025; provided that this term will no longer apply to the Series A warrants beginning on the first the trading day immediately following a period of five consecutive trading days on which the closing sale price of our common stock is a minimum of $1.50 per share.
