In January and March 2023, the Company issued a total of 1,443,000 shares of common stock to certain vendors as payment for services rendered or to be provided to the Company.

 

In connection with the closing of the Company’s IPO as discussed in Note 1, the Company issued common stock as follows:

 

  As a result of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on July 11, 2023, the Company issued a total of 40,000 restricted shares of common stock to the following directors and in the amounts listed: (i) Stephen Toovey (10,000 restricted shares of common stock), (ii) Charles Allen (10,000 restricted shares of common stock), (iii) Paul Field (10,000 restricted shares of common stock) and (iv) Cheryl Xu (10,000 restricted shares of common stock), by virtue of the terms of the agreements discussed in Note 12.

 

  On July 13, 2023, the Company issued 31,447 shares of common stock upon the exercise of 31,447 Bridge Warrants (as defined below).

 

  On July 14, 2023, the IPO closed, and the Company issued 1,415,095 shares of common stock from the sale of units at a price of $5.30 per unit, generating $6,454,325 in net proceeds, after deducting the underwriting discount and commission and other estimated IPO expenses. As a result of the completion of the IPO and as required under the terms of the respective agreements, on July 14, 2023:

 

  o The Company issued an aggregate of 383,908 shares of common stock upon conversion of the 2022 and 2023 Bridge Notes and the Related Party Notes described in Note 8.

 

  o The Company issued 29,245 shares of common stock to BioIntelect as deferred equity compensation valued in the amount of $155,000.

Common Stock Warrants

 

In May 2022 and May 2023, in connection with the issuance of the Related Party Notes and the 2022 and 2023 Bridge Notes as described in Note 8, the Company issued five-year warrants to each of the noteholders with an exercise price dependent on the IPO price (collectively, the “Bridge Warrants”). The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants was contingent on the number of shares issued upon conversion of the notes following the Company’s IPO. As of the closing of the Company’s IPO, the Bridge Warrants became exercisable into an aggregate of 231,917 shares of the Company’s common stock, 79,926 of which have an exercise price of $4.77 (90% of the IPO price), and 151,991 with an exercise price of $5.83 (110% of the IPO Price). Prior to the IPO, the Bridge Warrants were classified as derivative liabilities in accordance with the provisions of ASC 815 and were carried at their respective fair values. (See Note 9). In connection with the IPO, the terms of the Bridge Warrants became fixed. The Company determined the event resulted in equity classification for the Bridge Warrants and, accordingly, the Company remeasured the warrant liabilities to fair value, and reclassified the warrants to additional paid-in capital.

 

On July 12, 2023, the Company executed a Warrant Agent Agreement with Equity Stock Transfer, LLC, acting as warrant agent for the IPO, which sets forth the procedures for registering, transferring and exercising the Tradeable warrants and Non-tradeable warrants issued in connection with the IPO. The Company accounts for the Tradeable Warrants, the Non-tradeable Warrants, and the Representative Warrants (defined in Note 1) as equity-classified financial instruments.

 

There were no equity-classified warrants issued or outstanding prior to the Company’s IPO. The following table summarizes the activity for the Company’s equity-classified warrants for the three months ended September 30, 2023:

The holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock have the rights, preferences, powers, restrictions and limitations as set forth below.

 

Voting Rights – The holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock are not entitled to any voting rights.

 

Dividends – From and after the date of issuance of any share of Seies A Preferred Stock, cumulative dividends shall accrue, whether or not declared by the Board and whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of dividends, on a daily basis in arrears at the rate of 6.0% per annum on the sum of the Liquidation Value (as defined below). Accrued dividends shall be paid in cash only when, as and if declared by the Board out of funds legally available therefor or upon a liquidation or redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock. On March 31 of each calendar year, any accrued and unpaid dividends shall accumulate and compound on such date, and are cumulative until paid or converted. Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive accrued and accumulated dividends prior to and in preference to any dividend, distribution, or redemption on shares of Common Stock or any other class of securities that is designated as junior to the Series A Preferred Stock. From the issuance date of the Series A Preferred Stock, or July 14, 2023 to September 30, 2023, accrued dividends on outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock totaled $101,538.

Liquidation Rights – In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding will share ratably in any distribution of the remaining assets and funds of the Company with all other stockholders as if each share of Series A Preferred Stock had been converted by the Company to Common Stock as described below.

 

Conversion Rights – The Company has the right, in its sole discretion, to convert all or any portion of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock (including any fraction of a share), plus the aggregate accrued or accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon into a number of shares of Common Stock determined by (i) multiplying the number of shares to be converted by $100 per share, as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or similar transactions (the “Liquidation Value”), (ii) plus all accrued and accumulated and unpaid dividends on such shares to be converted, and then (ii) dividing the result by the then-effective Conversion Price in effect, provided that such conversion would not result in the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock owning more than 19.9% of the outstanding shares of common stock on an as-converted basis. The “Conversion Price” is equal to the lesser of (a) the Liquidation Value, (b) the offering price per share of Common Stock in the Company’s IPO, or (c) the 10-day volume weighted average price per share of Common Stock, as reasonably determined by the Company.
