Note 3 - Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

In October and November 2021, the Company sold to investors in a private placement exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, an aggregate of 200,000 shares of its 8.0% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, at an offering price of $25.00 per share, for gross proceeds of $5.0 million. After payment of placement agent cash fees and expenses of the offering, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $4.6 million.

Holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock generally have no voting rights. Dividends on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock accrue daily and are payable monthly in arrears on the 15th day of the calendar month, at the rate of 8.0% per annum of its liquidation preference, which is the equivalent to $2.00 per annum per share. Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $12.50 per common share, or 2.0 shares of common stock, at any time at the option of the holder, subject to certain customary adjustments. Holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock do not participate in common stock dividends, but such common stock dividends if and when declared would reduce the conversion price at which shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock would convert into common stock. The Company may elect to automatically convert some or all of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into shares of common stock at any time on or after April 22, 2022 if the closing price of the common stock equals or exceeds $15.00 (120% of the initial conversion price) for at least 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days ending within five trading days prior to the notice of automatic conversion. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will not be redeemable before April 22, 2022 except as described below upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change (as defined in the Certificate of Designations). The Company may redeem, at the Company’s option, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at a cash redemption price of $27.50 plus accrued and unpaid dividends beginning April 22, 2022 through October 21, 2023, at a cash redemption price of $28.125 plus accrued and unpaid dividends beginning October 22, 2023 through October 21, 2024, and, at a cash redemption price of $28.75 plus accrued and unpaid dividends beginning October 22, 2024. If the Company exercises the foregoing redemption right, holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will have the right to convert such shares into shares of common stock at the conversion price until the redemption date specified in the redemption notice delivered by the Company. However, at any time within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Company may redeem, at the Company’s option, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at a cash redemption price of $27.50 plus accrued and unpaid dividends if the redemption date occurs from October 22, 2022 through October 21, 2023, at a cash redemption price of $28.125 plus accrued and unpaid dividends if the redemption date occurs from October 22, 2023 through October 21, 2024, and at a cash redemption price of $28.75 plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if the redemption date occurs on and after October 22, 2024. If the Company exercises the foregoing redemption right, holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will have the right to convert such shares into shares of common stock at the conversion price after the Fundamental Change but prior to the redemption date specified in the redemption notice delivered by the Company.
