the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”). The price to the public in this
offering is $1.80 per share. The Underwriter has agreed to purchase the shares from the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement
at a price of $1.674 per share. The net proceeds to the Company from the offering are expected to be approximately $1.96

indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriter, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as
