In connection with the Agreements, the parties thereto agreed to, among other things, (i) amend the expiration date of those certain leak-out agreements previously entered into with certain Investors in connection with the Offering from August 2, 2019 until August 15, 2019, (ii) amend the warrants issued to such Investors in connection with the Offering such that they shall become cashlessly exercisable pursuant to terms thereof on July 10, 2019 (the “Warrant Amendment”), and (iii) amend the warrant agreement entered into with Computershare on June 18, 2019 (the “Warrant Agreement”) to reflect the terms of the Warrant Amendment. Pursuant to the Agreements, the Investors have also agreed to vote their shares of the Company’s common stock held on the applicable record date in favor of one or more future proposals that the Company expects to ask its stockholders to approve in connection with a contemplated reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, at a ratio to be determined in the future by the Company’s board of directors.
