Any disclosures herein with respect to persons other than the Reporting Persons are made on information believed to be accurate after making inquiry to the appropriate party.

(f) Bleichroeder is a limited partnership organized under the laws of the State of Delaware. The General Partner is a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration


Prior to December 13, 2023, accounts and funds managed by the Reporting Persons held (i) 603,351 Shares and (ii) 301,675 warrants to purchase Shares ("Warrants") that will be, subject to certain conditions described below, convertible into 301,675 Shares (as of December 13, 2023). The 603,351 Shares (excluding the Shares acquired upon exercise of the Warrants) were acquired at an aggregate cost of $2,900,009 in private issuances between the Issuer and accounts and funds managed by Bleichroeder.

On December 13, 2023, the Issuer entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with funds managed by the Reporting Persons providing for the issuance and sale, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,200,000, of 600,000 Shares and Warrants to purchase 960,000 Shares at an exercise price of $2.50 per Share. Concurrently, the Issuer entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the funds managed by the Reporting Persons providing, among other things, resale registration rights with respect to the Shares and the Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Company amended the existing Warrants to purchase 301,675 Shares having an exercise price greater than $2.50 to (i) reduce the exercise price to $2.50, (ii) provide for mandatory exercise at the option of the Company, if the VWAP of the Company's Shares exceeds $5.00 for 30 consecutive trading days and (iii) extend their exercise period to the fifth anniversary of the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

The Issuer also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement on December 13, 2023 (the "Registration Rights Agreement") with the funds, pursuant to which the funds will have the Shares and Warrant Shares included in a registration statement to be prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission so as to permit the registered resale of the Shares and the Warrant Shares. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall use its best efforts to have such registration statement declared effective for a period of one (1) year following the initial date of effectiveness. In addition, the holders of at least twenty per cent (20%) of the shares eligible for registration under the Registration Rights Agreement shall have the right, exercisable at any time prior to December 13, 2028, to request that the Company file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement for all or part of such shares beneficially owned by the holders of such shares.

Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.

Bleichroeder originally acquired beneficial ownership of the Shares of the Issuer for investment purposes.

Bleichroeder intends to evaluate on an ongoing basis its investment in the Issuer and its options with respect to such investment. In connection with such evaluation, Bleichroeder may meet with members of the Board and/or senior management of the Issuer, or communicate publicly or privately with other stockholders, knowledgeable industry or market observers or other third parties with respect to its investment. As part of such evaluation and any such discussions, Bleichroeder may make recommendations, suggestions or proposals to the Issuer that may relate to or result in one or more of the matters specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, including, but not limited to, changes in the strategic direction and future plans of the Issuer as a means of enhancing shareholder value.

Depending on various factors, including the Issuer's financial position, prospects and strategic direction, the outcome of the matters referenced above, other developments concerning the Issuer, actions taken by the Issuer's board of directors, price levels of the Shares, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investments in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, including, without limitation, making or causing further acquisitions of securities of the Issuer, including Shares, from time to time, and disposing of, or cause to be disposed, any or all of the securities of the Issuer, including Shares, beneficially held by Bleichroeder at any time.

Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) As of the date of this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons beneficially own 2,465,026 Shares, representing 22.61% of the outstanding Shares (including Shares that will be issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants). The percentages used herein are based upon (i) the 7,003,599 Shares reported as outstanding as of November 13, 2023 by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2023, (ii) the 2,638,076 Shares issued on December 13. 2023 as reported by the Issuer in its 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 15, 2023 and (iii) the 1,261,675 Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants.
