 operating performance, competitive developments, financial market conditions, and stock exchange listing of our Common Stock, all of which are significantly affected by financial, business, economic, and other factors, many of which we are not able to control. Accordingly, our cash flow may not be sufficient to allow us to pay principal and interest on the convertible notes or meet our other obligations under the Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement. Our level of indebtedness under the Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement could have other important consequences, including the following:

•we may need to use a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to pay interest and principal on the Convertible Notes, which would reduce funds available to us for other purposes such as working capital, capital expenditures, potential acquisitions, and other general corporate purposes;

•we may be unable to refinance our indebtedness under the Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement or to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, or general corporate purposes;

•we may be unable to comply with covenants in the Convertible Notes, which could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived after 30 days, may result in acceleration of the Convertible Notes. An event of default would have an adverse effect on our business and prospects and could force us into bankruptcy or liquidation;

•our ability to pay interest and repay principal in additional notes, if so elected by us, and conversion of the Convertible Notes (at the current Conversion Rate, or any adjusted conversion rate including the Additional Shares) could result in significant dilution to our existing stockholders and cause the market price of our Common Stock to decline; and

•we may be more vulnerable to an economic downturn or recession and adverse developments in our business.

Exercise of our outstanding Warrants will dilute the ownership interest of our existing stockholders or may otherwise depress the price of our Common Stock.

In August 2024, we issued and sold warrants to purchase an aggregate of 10,666,666 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.7981 per share, including 5,333,333 Series A Warrants and 5,333,333 Series B Warrants, which will be initially exercisable on February 27, 2025. The Series A Warrants will expire on February 27, 2030 and the Series B Warrants will expire on February 27, 2027.

The exercise of some or all of the warrants will dilute the ownership interests
