, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Streeterville Capital, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investor an unsecured convertible note, on December 30, 2022, in the original principal amount of $3,230,000 (the “Note”, and together with the Purchase Agreement, the “Agreement”), convertible into Class A ordinary shares, no par value, of the Company (“Class A Ordinary Shares”). The Note bears an interest rate of 7% per annum and will be matured on December 30, 2023.

Under the Agreement, the Investor has the right to redeem the Note sixty (60) days after the purchase price of the Note was delivered by the Investor to the Company, and redemptions may be satisfied in cash or Class A Ordinary Shares, at the Company’s election. However, the Company will be required to pay the redemption amount in cash, if there is an Equity Conditions Failure (as defined in the Note).

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023, 8,996,865 Class A Ordinary Shares were issued for the redemption of $1.25 million convertible notes. After the redemption
