        <footnote id="F1">This Option was granted to Reporting Person to replace an option to purchase 68,182 shares that had been issued to compensate Reporting Person for $22,500 in services to the Issuer and had expired unexercised due to a discrepancy between the original exercise price and Issuer's current stock price, pursuant to plan adopted by the Issuer's Compensation Committee.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">Total reflects the expiration of options to purchase 68,182 shares that expired March 31, 2026.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">This Option was issued to Reporting Person as payment for $18,750 in fees due to Reporting Person by Issuer in exchange for services on its board of directors for the most recently completed quarterly period, pursuant to the Issuer's 2024 Equity Incentive Plan. The number of shares in the Option is equal to the amount of fees due divided by the exercise price of the Option.</footnote>
