(the “Company”) previously reported that on February 19, 2021, the Company, along with Joe Davy and Demio, Inc. (the “Guarantors”), entered into a loan agreement with CP BF Lending, LLC (\"CP BF\" and the \"Loan Agreement\", respectively) and issued a convertible promissory note (the “First Senior Convertible Note”) in an aggregate principal amount of $1,500,000 to CP BF. As further disclosed in previously filed Current Reports on Form 8-K, the parties entered into several amendments and side letters regarding the Loan Agreement and First Senior Convertible Note. The Company also previously disclosed that in September 2024, pursuant to a securities purchase agreement with CP BF, (the “CP BF SPA”),CP BF agreed to convert $2,000,000 in debt into $2,200,000 in equity, consisting of 26,085 shares of Class A Common Stock, Warrants to purchase up to 56,555 shares of Class A Common Stock and Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to 30,470 shares of Class A Common Stock (collectively, the “CP BF Registrable Securities”).\n\n \n\nAfter giving effect to the purchase and sale pursuant to the CP BF SPA, the Company's remaining obligation to CP BF was $8,758,775 CP BF agreed to convert such debt into a consolidated convertible note with a principal amount of $10,758,774.75 (the “Note”), via the Second Amendment to Loan Agreement, dated September 23, 2024 (the “Amended Loan Agreement”).\n\n \n\nOn October 14, 2025, the Company and CP BF executed a letter agreement dated October 10, 2025 (as amended on October 15, 2025, the \"Letter Agreement\"), amending certain terms of the Loan Agreement and Note. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement: (i) the Conversion Price was reduced to 95% of the Class A Common Stock price on the trading day (each a \"Trading Day\") immediately preceding delivery of any Conversion Notice, subject to a floor price of $2.50 (the \"Floor Price\"); (ii) CP BF agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to partially convert the Balance of the Note into Class A Common Stock at the new conversion price, subject to a daily volume limitation of 5% of aggregate daily trading volume, which the Company may waive or increase; and (iii) following the Company's payment of at least $2,000,000 of the Note’s then existing balance and until the earlier of (a) 60 days following the date of the Letter Agreement and (b) the Company's receipt of $10,000,000 in gross proceeds from securities sales (such period, the \"Suspension Period\"), the Company's obligation to prepay a portion of securities offering proceeds to CP BF under the Loan Agreement is suspended.\n\n \n\nOn May 8, 2026, the Company effected a one-for-twenty (1-for-20) reverse stock split of its outstanding Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (the \"Reverse Stock Split\"). Pursuant to Section 2.3(a)(i) of the Note, the Conversion Price was proportionately adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split effective at the close of business on May 8, 2026. As of May 14, 2026, there was an aggregate of $5,361,910 outstanding under the Note.\n\n \n\nOn May 15, 2026, the Company, the Guarantors and CP BF entered into a letter agreement (the \"Floor Price Amendment\"), further amending the Loan Agreement and the Note. Pursuant to the Floor Price Amendment, the Floor Price applicable to the Conversion Price under the Note was reduced from $50.00 (as adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split) to $4.50 (on a post-Reverse Stock Split basis). For the avoidance of doubt, the Conversion Price remains equal to 95% of the price of the Class A Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding delivery of any Conversion Notice, subject to the Floor Price as amended by the Floor Price Amendment.\n\n \n\nExcept as explicitly amended by the Floor Price Amendment, all terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement (including the Letter Agreement) and the other Loan Documents remain in full force and effect. The Company's failure to comply with the Floor Price Amendment constitutes an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement.\n\nThe foregoing descriptions of terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, Note, Letter Agreement and Floor Price Amendment do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the form of such documents, which are attached hereto as exhibits."}
