Item 1 Comment:
This Amendment No. 4 amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on September 6, 2024, Amendment No. 1 on
September 13, 2024, Amendment No. 2 on November 21, 2024, and Amendment No. 3 on March 10, 2025 (as amended, the "Statement" or the "Schedule 13D") by the Reporting Persons with respect to the Common Stock of the Company. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 4 shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Statement. Unless amended or supplemented below, the information in the Statement remains unchanged. | ||
Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration | |
Item 3 of the Statement is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
In aggregate, the Reporting Persons have voting and dispositive power over 11,162,741 shares of Common Stock of the Company, which is comprised of (a) 3,705,262 shares of Common Stock, (b) Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to 1,253,572 shares of Common Stock, the exercise of which is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 9.99% of the outstanding Common Stock (and excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants in excess of the beneficial ownership limitation), and (c) 6,203,907 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of 74,447 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, the conversion of which is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 19.99% of the outstanding Common Stock (and excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock in excess of the beneficial ownership limitation).
On September 17, 2025, Fund II purchased a total of 333,340 shares of Common Stock through a private placement with the Company for an aggregate of $5,000,100. The shares were purchased with working capital. | ||
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction | |
Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
Subscription Agreement
On September 17, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Subscription Agreement") for a private investment in public equity ("PIPE") with certain institutional and accredited investors, including Fund II. The PIPE closed on September 19, 2025. Pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement, Fund II purchased a total of 333,340 shares of Common Stock for investment purposes at a purchase price of $15.00 per share.
The foregoing description of the Subscription Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of the Subscription Agreement, which the Reporting Persons anticipate will be filed as an exhibit to the Company's upcoming Current Report on Form 8-K.
Registration Rights Agreement
In connection with the PIPE, the Company and investors participating in the PIPE, including Fund II, entered into a registration rights agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company is required to prepare and file an initial registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission no later than October 15, 2025 registering for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the shares of Common Stock purchased by the investors in the PIPE. The Registration Rights Agreement also provides that the Company is required to pay certain expenses relating to such registrations and indemnify the applicable securityholders against certain liabilities.
The foregoing summary of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Registration Rights Agreement, which the Reporting Persons anticipate will be filed as an exhibit to the Company's upcoming Current Report on Form 8-K. | ||
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer | |
(a) | The information in rows 11 and 13 of each of the cover pages (including the explanatory note in the "Comments") of this Amendment No. 4 is incorporated by reference herein. | |
(b) | The information in rows 7 through 10 of each of the cover pages of this Amendment No. 4 is incorporated by reference herein.
The Reporting Persons' securities (a) include (i) 1,131,954 shares of Common Stock, 1,253,572 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants and 6,203,907 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of 74,447 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, directly held by Fund II, and (ii) 2,573,308 shares of Common Stock directly held by Co-Invest, and (b) exclude (i) 4,044,092 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants and (ii) 5,224,242 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of 62,691 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, in each case directly held by Fund II. The exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 9.99% of the outstanding Common Stock and the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 19.99%. The securities exclude shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants and conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock in excess of such beneficial ownership limitations. At such time as Fairmount and its affiliates beneficially own 9.0% or less of the Common Stock, the beneficial ownership limitation with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock will automatically reduce to 9.99%. | |
(c) | On September 17, 2025, Fund II purchased a total of 333,340 shares of Common Stock in the PIPE at a price of $15.00 per share, for an aggregate of $5,000,100. | |
(d) | Fairmount is the investment manager to Fund II and Co-Invest and has voting and dispositive power over shares of Common Stock held on behalf of Fund II and Co-Invest. | |
