Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 3, 2025, the Company entered into an At The Market Offering Agreement (the "Sales Agreement") with Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. ("Ladenburg") pursuant to which the Company may sell shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 (the "Common Stock"), from time to time, at its option, through or to Ladenburg, as sales agent or principal. Sales of the Company's Common Stock made pursuant to the Sales Agreement, if any, will be made under the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-280647) and the prospectus supplement filed on September 3, 2025 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in sales deemed to be "at the market offerings" as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act, initially having an aggregate offering price of up to $4,650,000. Ladenburg will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Common Stock from time to time, based upon the Company's instructions (including any price, time, or size limits or other customary parameters or conditions the Company may impose).
The Company is not obligated to make any sales of Common Stock under the Sales Agreement, and the Company cannot provide any assurances that it will issue any shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement. The offering of Common Stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement will terminate upon the termination of the Sales Agreement as permitted therein. The Company is obligated to pay Ladenburg an aggregate sales agent commission of up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of the sale price for Common Stock sold under the Sales Agreement. The Company has also provided Ladenburg with customary indemnification rights and expense reimbursements for up to $50,000 of expenses in addition to ongoing diligence expenses. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Sales Agreement were made only for purposes of the Sales Agreement as of specific dates indicated therein, were solely for the benefit of Ladenburg and to allocate risk between the Company and Ladenburg, and as a result should not be relied on and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties.
The foregoing description of the material terms of the Sales Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
