Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Item 3 of this Schedule 13D is hereby amended by the addition of the following:
On March 31, 2023, the company executed a $30.0 million promissory note with Nant Capital, LLC (Nant Capital), an affiliated entity under common control of our Executive Chairman, Global Chief Scientific and Medical Officer, and principal stockholder. This note bears interest at Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus 8.0% per annum. The outstanding principal amount and any accrued and unpaid interest are due on December 31, 2023 or upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default (as defined in the note). The interest on this note will be paid on a quarterly basis beginning on June 30, 2023. The company may prepay the outstanding promissory note, at any time, in whole or in part, without penalty. The noteholder may convert the balance of the convertible promissory note and accrued interest in whole at its option following the Conversion Price Date, which is the trading day prior to the opening of the next open trading window, as determined by the companys board of directors in accordance with the companys Insider Trading Policy. The conversion price is equal to the greater of (i) the NASDAQ Official Closing Price and (ii) the consolidated closing bid price of the companys common stock on the Conversion Price Date. There is no floor on the conversion price for this convertible note, therefore, as of March 31, 2023 we cannot determine the total number of shares issuable upon conversion that may occur in the future. On May 12, 2023, the conversion price of the shares subject to the promissory note became fixed at $2.28 per share.
