In exchange for each share of Series D Preferred Stock that is validly tendered on or prior to 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on January 20, 2023 (the "Expiration Date and Time") not validly withdrawn and validly accepted by the Company for exchange, tendering holders of Series D Preferred Stock will be eligible to receive (i) $16.00 in principal amount of the Notes, and (ii) 0.5 shares of Common Stock. The Exchange Offer commenced on November 22, 2022 and the Revised Exchange Offer will expire at the Expiration Date and Time, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Company.
