**Item 3.02 Sale of Unregistered Securities.**

On September 16, 2025, the Company issued 12,000 shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, valued at $90,000, to Carter, Terry & Company Inc. ("Carter Terry") for partial payment of commissions owed on a recent financing completed by the Company. The Company agreed to register the shares of common stock underlying conversion of the Series D Preferred Shares within thirty (30) calendar days. At any time prior to the registration of the Series D Preferred Shares, the Company may elect, in its sole discretion, to satisfy the $90,000 fee obligation in cash, payable directly to Carter Terry.

The issuance of the shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of that Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof. The recipients are accredited investors or an officer of the Company with the experience and expertise to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in securities of the Company and the financial means to bear the risks of such an investment.

As of September 17, 2025, the Company had 10,228,741 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

**Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.**

To the extent required by Item 3.03 of Form 8-K, the information contained in Item 5.03 herein is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.

**Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.**

In connection with the corporate action approved by the Company's stockholders at the annual meeting of stockholders held on May 20, 2025, the stockholders of the Company approved a Certificate of Amendment to the Company's Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Amendment") to effect a reverse stock split of the Company's shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), at a ratio of up to 1-for-25 (the "Reverse Stock Split"), with such ratio to be determined in the sole discretion of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") and with the Reverse Stock Split to be effected at such time and date, if at all, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion at any time within twelve (12) months of such stockholder approval. The Board set the Reverse Stock Split ratio at 1-for-20 and approved and authorized the filing of the Certificate of Amendment on September 16, 2025, with the Certificate of Amendment to become effective as of 12:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on October 3, 2025 (the "Effective Time").

As of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K the Company has **NOT** received a deficiency notice regarding the bid price rule from the listing qualifications staff at The Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq").

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every twenty (20) shares of the Company's pre-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock will be combined into one (1) share of the Company's post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock, without any change in par value per share. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split and all such fractional interests will be rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock. Further, no current owner of 100 or more shares will be reduced to less than 100 shares.

The Reverse Stock Split is intended for the Company to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share of Common Stock for continued listing on Nasdaq. The Reverse Stock Split will be effective at 12:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on October 3, 2025, and the Common Stock is expected to begin trading on a Reverse Stock Split-adjusted basis on Nasdaq at the opening of the market on October 3, 2025. The trading symbol for the common stock will remain "AREB," and the new CUSIP number of the common stock following the Reverse Stock Split is 02919L 703.

The Company's transfer agent, Securities Transfer Corporation, is acting as the exchange agent and paying agent for the Reverse Stock Split.

The Reverse Stock Split does not affect the Company's authorized preferred stock. After the Reverse Stock Split, the Company's authorized preferred Stock of 10,000,000 shares remained unchanged. Additionally, the Reverse Stock Split will not affect the par value of the preferred stock, or previously designated series of preferred stock, except to affect, where applicable, the conversion rates of such preferred stock. The Reverse Stock Split will have no effect on the voting or conversion rights of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which shall remain at 1,000:1 and 500:1, respectively, or the conversion rights of the Series C and D Convertible Preferred Stock, which shall remain at 5:1 (each share of Series C and D Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into five shares of Common Stock).

Each stockholder's percentage ownership interest in the Company and proportional voting power remains virtually unchanged as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, except for minor changes and adjustments that will result from rounding fractional shares into whole shares and accounting for the fact no current owner of 100 or more shares will be reduced to less than 100 shares. The rights and privileges of the holders of shares of Common Stock will be substantially unaffected by the Reverse Stock Split.

In addition, the Reverse Stock Split will apply to the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Company's outstanding warrants, stock options and other derivative securities, with proportionate adjustments to be made to the exercise prices thereof. All outstanding Company options, warrants, and convertible/derivative securities entitling the holders thereof to purchase shares of Common Stock, if any, will enable such holders to purchase, upon exercise thereof, fewer of the number of shares of Common Stock which such holders would have been able to purchase upon exercise thereof immediately preceding the Reverse Stock Split, at the same total price (but a higher per share price) required to be paid upon exercise thereof immediately preceding the Reverse Stock Split

The summary of the Certificate of Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.**

On September 23, 2025, the Company issued a press release with respect to the Reverse Stock Split. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this "Current Report").

The reverse stock split will not change the authorized number of shares of the Company's Common Stock. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split and all such fractional interests will be rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock. **Further, no current owner of 100 or more shares will be reduced to less than 100 shares.** In addition, the reverse stock split will apply to the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Company's outstanding derivative securities, with proportionate adjustments to be made to the exercise prices and number of derivates thereof and under the Company's equity incentive plans.

**Round Lot Shareholder Protection** to ensure that shareholders holding a "round lot" (typically 100 shares) are not adversely affected by the split.

**All Fractional Shares Rounded to nearest whole number.** As a result of the reverse stock split all fractional interests will be rounded up to the nearest whole number The Company is committed to pro-actively protecting the interests of its stockholders, particularly those owning round lots of 100 or more shares. Stockholders holding at least 100 shares prior to the reverse stock split will retain a minimum of 100 shares post-split. This protection ensures that no stockholder who currently qualifies as a round lot holder will lose their status. Additionally, fractional shares resulting from the reverse stock split will be rounded up to the nearest whole share to maintain liquidity and shareholder equity.

The reverse stock split will reduce the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock from approximately 10.2 million to approximately 514 thousand, which does not include shares to be issued pursuant to the round lot rounding set forth above.

On May 20, 2025, the stockholders of the Company approved a Certificate of Amendment to the Company's Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Common Stock, at a ratio of up to 1-for-25, with such ratio to be determined in the sole discretion of the Company's board of directors (the "Board") and with the reverse stock split to be effected at such time and date, if at all, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion at any time within twelve (12) months of such stockholder approval. The Board approved the reverse stock split at a ratio of 1-for-20 on September 16, 2025.

Securities Transfer Corporation is acting as the exchange agent and paying agent for the reverse stock split. **Stockholders holding their shares in book-entry form or in brokerage accounts need not take any action in connection with the reverse stock split**.

The standard procedure is that DTC gathers all round up share requests from each participant within their system. **After about 4 business days, DTC will send a request for the total amount of round up shares needed to cover all participants/beneficial holders.** At that time, our transfer agent will make one issuance/deposit to CEDE (DTC).

Round up shares should populate in participant/beneficial holder accounts approximately on or before ten (10) trading days post the Reverse Stock Split.

Securities Transfer Corporation will provide instructions to any stockholders with certificates regarding the process in connection with the exchange of pre-reverse stock split stock certificates for ownership in book-entry form or stock certificates on a post-reverse stock split basis. **Stockholders are encouraged to contact their bank, broker or custodian with any procedural questions.**
