The five-year warrant grants the right to purchase 35,000 shares of common stock per $100,000 of Debentures, with an exercise price equal to $1.50 per share exercisable starting six months after Closing.

Among other terms of the financing transaction, the company has agreed not to issue an equity or equity-linked issuance below the $1.00 conversion price for a period of one year.
