Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously disclosed on June 11, 2026, CDT Equity Inc. (the “Company”), issued a senior secured convertible promissory note (the “Note”) to J.J. Astor & Co. (the “Lender”), in the principal amount of $1,971,000 (the “Principal Amount”), in connection with a Loan Agreement entered into by and between the Company and the Lender (the “Agreement”). On June 30, 2026, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Amended Loan Agreement”) and an Amended and Restated Senior Secured Convertible Note (the “Amended Note”) to close the second tranche of the Loan.
On July 31, 2026, the Company and the Lender have entered into a second amendment to the Amended Loan Agreement and the Amended Note (the “Second Amendment”). The Second Amendment increased the principal amount due under the Amended Note to $2,266,650 and the Amended Note now carries an interest rate of 19%. Among other things, pursuant to the Second Amendment, the Amended Note is payable to the Lender over twenty-three equal weekly installments of $104,187.65 starting on August 19, 2026. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the parties agreed to increase the net proceeds due to the Lender from the Company’s existing Sales Agreement, dated October 23, 2024 (the “Sales Agreement”), with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (“A.G.P.”) from eighty percent to ninety percent to pay down the weekly installments under the Amended Note. Additionally, subject to the requisite shareholder approval, the Lender shall have the right, at its sole option, to convert any or all of the outstanding balance of the Amended Note into shares of common stock of the Company (the “Conversion Shares”) at a conversion price equal to the greater of (i) seventy percent of the lowest volume-weighted average price of the Company’s Common Stock over the twenty consecutive trading days preceding the conversion notice (previously set at ninety percent over ten consecutive trading days) or (ii) the Nasdaq floor price pursuant to Nasdaq Rule 5635(d). The Second Amendment also extended the date the Company must file a resale registration statement registering 200% of the number of shares of common stock covering the increased principal outstanding amount under the Second Amendment to August 31, 2026 and must have such resale registration statement effective by September 11, 2026. Finally, the Second Amendment advanced the date the Company must obtain stockholder approval to issues shares under the Amended Note to August 28, 2026.
On August 3, 2026, the Company and Lender entered into a third amendment to the Amended Note and Amended Loan Agreement (the “Third Amendment”). Pursuant to the Third Amendment, the Lender advanced $200,000 to the Company, subject to fees, and increased the outstanding principal balance of the Amended Note to $2,536,650. Additionally, the Company has also issued the Lender warrants to purchase up to 37,500 shares of the Company’s common stock at a purchase price of $7.20 (the “Warrants” and such shares of common stock issuable upon exercise, the “Warrant Shares”), in the same form of warrant issued to the Lender on June 11, 2026. Moreover, the definition of “Floor Price” in the Amended Note and the Amended Loan Agreement shall be adjusted to equal twenty percent of the lowest volume-weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the twenty (20) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date the Floor Price adjusts, which shall adjust every six months commencing December 11, 2026.
The issuance of any or all of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares, in the aggregate in excess of 19.99% of the current number of outstanding shares of common stock of the Company is subject to stockholder approval under applicable rules and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, to the extent required by such rules and regulations (“Stockholder Approval”).
This summary is not a complete description of all of the terms of the Second Amendment and the Third Amendment and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Second Amendment and Third Amendment, forms of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 respectively hereto, which are incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

D. The Lender has not delivered any notice of Event of Default, notice of acceleration, or other demand under the Transaction Documents in respect of the matters described in Recital C, and nothing in this Amendment shall be construed as a waiver of, or an election of remedies with respect to, any right of the Lender under the Transaction Documents or applicable law.
E. The parties desire to amend the Loan Agreement and the Note to (i) provide for the treatment of the Accommodated Matters on the terms and conditions set forth herein, (ii) reschedule the remaining Minimum Installment Payments, (iii) increase the ATM Waterfall Distribution percentage payable to the Lender from Eighty Percent (80%) to Ninety Percent (90%), and (iv) provide for the Restructuring Premium and interest at the Amendment Rate described in Section 4.5 hereof, all as more particularly set forth herein.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, the mutual covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE I DEFINITIONS
Section 1.1 Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement, the Note, or the other Transaction Documents, as applicable. As used in this Amendment: (a) “Registration Statement” means the Resale Registration Statement as defined in the Loan Agreement; (b) “DACA Account” means the deposit account of the Company that is subject to the DACA; and (c) “Guaranty” means the Guaranty Agreement referred to in Recital A, being the subsidiary guarantee dated June 11, 2026 executed by the Subsidiary Guarantor in favor of the Lender and also referred to in the Loan Agreement as the Subsidiary Guarantee.
ARTICLE II ACCOMMODATION
Section 2.1 Accommodation. Subject to the satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in Section 5.1 of this Amendment and the Company’s continued compliance with the Transaction Documents as amended hereby, the Lender hereby agrees that the Accommodated Matters identified in Recital C above shall not constitute, and shall not be deemed to have constituted, an Event of Default under the Note, the Loan Agreement, or any other Transaction Document (the “Accommodation”). The Accommodation shall become effective as of the Amendment Date upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 5.1.
Section 2.2 Scope of Accommodation; No Modification of Rights. The Accommodation set forth in Section 2.1 is limited solely to the Accommodated Matters identified herein and shall not be deemed to (a) waive any other existing or future Event of Default (whether known or unknown), (b) waive any rights or remedies of the Lender arising from or relating to any Event of Default other than the Accommodated Matters, (c) constitute a course of dealing or obligate the Lender to grant any future waiver, or (d) amend, modify, or impair any other term, covenant, or condition of the Transaction Documents. If the Company fails to make any Minimum Installment Payment on any Scheduled Payment Date (as amended hereby) or otherwise breaches any term of the Transaction Documents, the Accommodation shall be automatically and immediately voided, whereupon each of the Accommodated Matters shall constitute an immediate Event of Default, without notice or demand, as of the date such matter first arose and as though the Accommodation had never been granted, and the Lender shall be entitled to exercise all rights and remedies available under the Transaction Documents and applicable law.
Section 2.3 Registration Statement Covenant. Notwithstanding Section 2.1, the Lender expressly reserves all rights, remedies, and claims arising from the Company’s failure to timely file the Registration Statement, and the Company covenants to file the Registration Statement with the SEC no later than August 31, 2026, registering for resale two hundred percent (200%) of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion in full of the Amended Principal Balance, including the Restructuring Premium and all interest accruing at the Amendment Rate through the Amended Maturity Date, at the Floor Price then in effect, determined as of the date of filing, and without regard to the Exchange Cap or the Beneficial Ownership Cap, together with the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrant and the Make Whole Shares, and to cause the same to be declared effective no later than September 11, 2026. Any failure to satisfy the foregoing covenant shall constitute an immediate Event of Default under the Note. Such reservation of rights shall survive the effectiveness of this Amendment. The Registration Rights Agreement is hereby amended to replace the filing deadline of July 26, 2026 set forth therein with August 31, 2026, and to provide that the Registrable Securities thereunder include all securities described in this Section 2.3; except as so amended, the Registration Rights Agreement remains in full force and effect.

ARTICLE III AMENDMENTS TO LOAN AGREEMENT
Section 3.1 Amendment to ATM Waterfall Distributions. The definition of “Payment Direction Agreement” in the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the ATM Waterfall Distributions set forth therein in their entirety and replacing them with the following:
“ATM Waterfall Distributions” means the following allocation of the net proceeds of each ATM Financing, as set forth in the Payment Direction Agreement:
(i) Ninety Percent (90%) of all ATM Financing net proceeds shall be distributed to the Lender until the Note has been paid in full, including the Amended Principal Balance, the Restructuring Premium, all interest accrued at the Amendment Rate, and any applicable Default Amount, without regard to whether any Minimum Installment Payment is then due or has been satisfied for the relevant week; and
(ii) The ATM Waterfall Distribution arrangement set forth in this definition shall remain in full force and effect and may not be rescinded, modified, or suspended by the Company without the prior written consent of the Lender.”
Section 3.2 Amendment to Weekly Installment Payments Definition. The definition of “Weekly Installment Payments” in the Loan Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
“Weekly Installment Payments” means the twenty-three (23) remaining weekly installment payments of $104,187.65 each under the Note, commencing on August 19, 2026 (the “Amended Commencement Date”) and continuing on each Wednesday thereafter through January 20, 2027 (the “Amended Maturity Date”), provided that any such payment otherwise due on a day that is not a Business Day shall be due on the immediately preceding Business Day, which payments shall amortize in full the Amended Principal Balance, including the Restructuring Premium, together with all interest accruing thereon at the Amendment Rate, in each case as provided in Section 4.5 of the Second Amendment.”
Section 3.3 Conforming Amendments to ATM Percentages. Each provision of the Loan Agreement that gives effect to the ATM Waterfall Distributions, including Section 4.10 (ATM Financing; Payment Direction Agreement; Deposit Account Control), is hereby amended by replacing each reference to “Eighty Percent (80%)” or “80%” with “Ninety Percent (90%)” or “90%”, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the ATM Waterfall Distributions as amended by Section 3.1 of this Amendment apply in lieu of the tiered allocation previously set forth in the definition of “Payment Direction Agreement” in the Loan Agreement, being Eighty Percent (80%) until the applicable weekly installment payment was satisfied, Fifty Percent (50%) thereafter, and Eighty Percent (80%) upon an Event of Default.
Section 3.4 ATM Program and Listing Covenants. Article IV of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following covenants, each of which shall apply from the Amendment Date until the Note is paid in full: (a) the Company shall maintain the Sales Agreement, dated October 23, 2024, as amended, with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners in full force and effect, shall maintain an effective registration statement and current prospectus permitting sales thereunder, and shall not suspend, reduce, or terminate the ATM Financing or decline to deliver a placement notice thereunder; (b) the Company shall effect ATM Financings generating net proceeds of not less than $115,765.00 in each calendar week, commencing with the calendar week in which the Company files its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and in any event no later than the calendar week commencing August 10, 2026, such that the Lender’s Ninety Percent (90%) share is not less than the applicable Minimum Installment Payment, and the Company shall not apply, and shall not direct or permit A.G.P. or East West Bank to apply, any ATM Financing net proceeds to any other obligation prior to satisfaction in full of the amounts then payable to the Lender; (c) the Company shall maintain the listing of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market and shall not take, or omit to take, any action that would reasonably be expected to result in delisting; (d) the Company shall deliver to the Lender copies of all correspondence with Nasdaq regarding continued listing, and notice of any deficiency, hearing, or determination, within one (1) Business Day of receipt; (e) the Company shall irrevocably direct A.G.P. in writing to remit, and shall cause A.G.P. to remit, all net proceeds of each ATM Financing solely and directly to the DACA Account, and to no other account of the Company or of any other Person, shall not amend, revoke, supersede, or deliver any instruction inconsistent with such direction without the Lender’s prior written consent, and shall maintain such direction in full force and effect until the Note has been paid in full; and (f) the Company shall deliver to the Lender, no later than ten (10) Business Days after the Amendment Date, irrevocable transfer agent instructions executed by the Company and acknowledged in writing by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, reflecting the 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the Common Stock effective July 17, 2026 and the share reservation required by Section 3.6 of this Amendment. Any breach of this Section 3.4 shall constitute an immediate Event of Default under the Note.

If Stockholder Approval is not obtained by such date, the Company shall convene an additional meeting of stockholders not less than once in each calendar quarter thereafter until Stockholder Approval is obtained.

If at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock is insufficient for such purpose, the Company shall promptly take all corporate action necessary to increase its authorized Common Stock, including convening a meeting of stockholders and soliciting proxies in favor thereof. Any failure to comply with this Section 3.6 shall constitute an immediate Event of Default under the Note.
Section 3.7 SEC Reporting; Sarborg Financial Statements. The Company shall (a) file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 with the SEC no later than August 14, 2026, (b) cause to be prepared and filed, within the periods required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, all separate financial statements of Sarborg Limited required to be filed by reason of the Company’s investment in Sarborg Limited, together with any audit or review reports of independent accountants required in connection therewith, (c) remain in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) and satisfy any compliance plan submitted to Nasdaq, and (d) promptly, and in any event within one (1) Business Day, notify the Lender of any determination that any previously issued financial statements should no longer be relied upon, of any notice from its independent accountants, and of any anticipated delay in any filing described in this Section 3.7.

ARTICLE IV AMENDMENTS TO NOTE
Section 4.1 Amendment to Payment Schedule. Section 2(a) of the Note is hereby amended by (i) replacing all references to Minimum Installment Payments commencing June 18, 2026 or July 10, 2026 (as previously amended) with a reference to twenty-three (23) Minimum Installment Payments of $104,187.65 each commencing on August 19, 2026, and (ii) replacing the “Scheduled Payment Dates” with the dates set forth in the schedule below, each of which shall be a Business Day (for clarity, the installment that would otherwise fall on Wednesday, November 11, 2026 is scheduled for Tuesday, November 10, 2026, the immediately preceding Business Day, as November 11, 2026 is a federal holiday):

Section 4.2 ATM Percentages in Note. To the extent the Note contains any reference to “Eighty Percent (80%)” or “80%” in connection with ATM Financing net proceeds, whether directly or by incorporation of the ATM Waterfall Distributions from the Loan Agreement, each such reference is hereby amended to read “Ninety Percent (90%)” or “90%”, as applicable, consistent with the amended ATM Waterfall Distributions set forth in Section 3.1 of this Amendment.
Section 4.3 Amendment to “Maturity Date” Definition. The definition of “Maturity Date” in Section 1 of the Note is hereby amended to replace the reference to the original final maturity date with January 20, 2027 as the Amended Maturity Date, on which date the entire remaining Amended Principal Balance, including the Restructuring Premium and all other amounts then outstanding under the Note, shall be due and payable in full, subject to earlier acceleration upon an Event of Default.
| Page 5 of 11 |
Section 4.4 No Remaining Grace Periods. In connection with the Accommodation set forth in Article II hereof, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the two (2) Grace Periods permitted under Section 5(a)(i) of the Note have been fully utilized and that no Grace Period remains available under the Note, such that following the Amendment Date any failure by the Company to pay a Minimum Installment Payment in full on the applicable Scheduled Payment Date shall constitute an immediate Event of Default without any cure period, notice, or demand. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 4.4 shall constitute a waiver of any other provision of the Note.
Section 4.5 Restructuring Premium; Amended Principal Balance. In consideration of the Lender’s agreement to the rescheduling and other accommodations set forth herein, the Company and the Lender agree that, effective as of the Amendment Date, the outstanding principal balance under the Note is increased by $377,775.00 (the “Restructuring Premium”), such that the aggregate outstanding principal balance under the Note as of the Amendment Date is $2,266,650.00 (the “Amended Principal Balance”). The Restructuring Premium is fully earned as of the Amendment Date upon execution and delivery of this Amendment, is not subject to rebate, proration, or refund for any reason, shall not be affected by and shall survive any failure of the conditions set forth in Section 5.1 to be satisfied, any failure of the Accommodation to become effective, and any voiding of the Accommodation pursuant to Section 2.2, and shall be treated as principal of the Note for all purposes of the Transaction Documents, including for purposes of conversion, prepayment, and the calculation of any Default Amount. The Restructuring Premium shall be paid as part of the Minimum Installment Payments and in any event in full on or before the Amended Maturity Date, without prejudice to the Lender’s right to apply ATM Financing net proceeds, DACA Account balances, or any prepayment to the Restructuring Premium at any time. Each Minimum Installment Payment shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest at the Amendment Rate and then to the Amended Principal Balance, including the Restructuring Premium. The Minimum Installment Payments have been calculated to amortize the Amended Principal Balance, including the Restructuring Premium, together with all interest accruing at the Amendment Rate, in full on the Amended Maturity Date, and the final Minimum Installment Payment shall be increased or decreased as necessary to pay in full all amounts then outstanding under the Note. Each party acknowledges that the Restructuring Premium is not a penalty or a forfeiture but rather a reasonable estimate, agreed between sophisticated parties represented by counsel, of the Lender’s costs, lost opportunity, and diminished credit position arising from the rescheduling of the Minimum Installment Payments and the extension of the Amended Maturity Date, the actual amount of which would be impracticable or extremely difficult to determine. Interest shall accrue on the Amended Principal Balance from and after July 21, 2026 (the date on which an Event of Default would first have occurred under Section 5(a)(i) of the Note but for the Accommodation) at the rate of nineteen percent (19%) per annum, compounded daily on the basis of a 360-day year (the “Amendment Rate”), calculated on the Amended Principal Balance outstanding from time to time after giving effect to payments applied thereto. Interest accruing at the Amendment Rate is in addition to, and does not duplicate, the Restructuring Premium, which compensates the Lender solely for the period ending on July 21, 2026. Neither the Restructuring Premium nor interest at the Amendment Rate limits, satisfies, or is in lieu of any liquidated damages, fees, costs, or other amounts included in the definition of “Default Amount” in Section 1 of the Note, all of which remain payable in accordance with the Note. Interest accruing at the Amendment Rate shall be payable as part of the Minimum Installment Payments, provided that the Lender may apply ATM Financing net proceeds, DACA Account balances, or any prepayment to accrued interest at any time.
| Page 6 of 11 |
Section 4.6 Amendment Conversion Price; Make Whole Shares. Notwithstanding any holding period or other restriction on conversion set forth in Section 2 of the Note, from and after the Amendment Date and without regard to whether an Event of Default has occurred, the Lender may convert all or any portion of the Amended Principal Balance, including the Restructuring Premium and all accrued and unpaid interest at the Amendment Rate, into shares of Common Stock at a price per share (the “Amendment Conversion Price”) equal to the greater of (a) seventy percent (70%) of the lowest volume-weighted average price of the Common Stock during the twenty (20) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the applicable conversion date and (b) the Floor Price. If the Floor Price applies to any conversion at the Amendment Conversion Price, the Company shall issue Make Whole Shares calculated in accordance with the Note as though such conversion were a conversion of the Default Amount, and to the extent the issuance of any Make Whole Shares would cause the Maximum Conversion Shares to be exceeded absent Stockholder Approval, the Company shall settle the value of such excess in cash, in immediately available funds, within three (3) Business Days of the applicable conversion date, valued at the closing market price of the Common Stock on such conversion date. Conversions at the Amendment Conversion Price remain subject to (i) the Maximum Conversion Shares as defined in the Loan Agreement, which, as provided in the Note, may not exceed the Exchange Cap of 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock calculated on a non-diluted basis absent Stockholder Approval, (ii) the Beneficial Ownership Cap of 4.99% of the Company’s then-outstanding Common Stock, which the Lender may increase to 9.99% in its sole discretion upon notice to the Company, and (iii) the Conversion Price Reductions set forth in the Note, and the Maximum Conversion Shares shall be subject to appropriate increase upon any reduction of the Amendment Conversion Price thereunder.
Section 4.7 Default Rate Step-Up. If at any time after the Amendment Date an Event of Default occurs, including any Event of Default arising under Section 2.2 hereof upon the voiding of the Accommodation, then, in addition to and without limiting the Default Amount or any other right or remedy of the Lender under the Transaction Documents, the Amendment Rate shall automatically increase from nineteen percent (19%) per annum to twenty-four percent (24%) per annum, compounded daily on the basis of a 360-day year, without notice, demand, or any further act of the Lender, and shall continue at such increased rate until all Obligations have been paid in full. Such increase shall apply retroactively to the entire period from and after July 21, 2026, and interest for that period shall be recalculated at twenty-four percent (24%) per annum in lieu of, and not in addition to, interest previously accrued at nineteen percent (19%) per annum. All interest accruing at the increased rate shall be due and payable on demand and, if not paid, shall be added to and constitute principal of the Note for all purposes of the Transaction Documents, including for purposes of conversion at the Amendment Conversion Price, and shall be secured by the Collateral and guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantor under the Guaranty.

(c) Section 4.7 of the Second Amendment is hereby further amended such that, whether or not an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Default Rate Step-Up shall also apply to the entire outstanding principal balance of the Note during each period (i) commencing on the first date on which the Common Stock has traded below the Floor Price then in effect for five (5) consecutive Trading Days and (ii) ending on the first date thereafter on which the Common Stock has traded at or above the Floor Price then in effect for five (5) consecutive Trading Days; and the Default Rate Step-Up under this clause (c) shall apply prospectively only during each such period and shall not give rise to any retroactive recalculation of interest.
Section 3.3 Conversion. The Additional Principal Amount and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall be convertible at the option of the Lender at the Amendment Conversion Price, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.6 of the Second Amendment, and all conversions shall remain subject to (i) the Maximum Conversion Shares and the Exchange Cap of 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock calculated on a non-diluted basis absent Stockholder Approval, applied on an aggregated basis across the Note and any other transactions required to be aggregated therewith under the applicable rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market, with cash settlement of any excess as provided in Section 2(f) of the Note, and (ii) the Beneficial Ownership Cap.

Any reduction of the Floor Price pursuant to this Section 3.8 shall not constitute a Conversion Price Reduction, and the share reservation under Section 3.5 of this Amendment and the Registration Statement coverage described in Section 3.4 of this Amendment shall be recalculated to give effect to each such adjustment. In addition, if the Company at any time prior to the payment in full of the Note sells or issues any Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents, convertible Note, convertible preferred stock, or warrants with a sale, conversion, or exercise price below the Floor Price then in effect, the Floor Price shall automatically be reset to such lower price, subject to appropriate adjustment for any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, or similar transaction.

Article IV of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following covenant, which shall apply from the Third Amendment Date until the Note has been paid in full: the Company shall not, and shall not permit the Subsidiary Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, (a) create, incur, assume, or guarantee any Indebtedness, other than the Obligations, trade payables incurred in the ordinary course of business, and Indebtedness existing on the Third Amendment Date and disclosed in writing to the Lender on or prior to the Third Amendment Date (without any increase in the principal amount thereof), or (b) issue or sell any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, or enter into any variable rate, reset, or otherwise adjustable equity or equity-linked transaction, or (c) engage any investment bank, placement agent, or other funding source in connection with any offering or capital raise, or enter into any agreement to do any of the foregoing, in each case without the prior written consent of the Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not restrict (i) sales of Common Stock pursuant to the ATM Financing effected in accordance with Section 3.4 of the Second Amendment and the Payment Direction Agreement, and the maintenance and performance of the Sales Agreement described in Section 3.4(a) of the Second Amendment solely in connection with the ATM Financing (but not the engagement of any other investment bank, placement agent, or funding source, and not any expansion of such engagement beyond the ATM Financing), (ii) issuances of Common Stock pursuant to the Transaction Documents, including upon conversion of the Note, as Make Whole Shares, or upon exercise of the Warrant (as amended hereby), or (iii) issuances of Common Stock or options to employees, officers, directors, or consultants pursuant to equity incentive plans in effect on the Third Amendment Date. Any breach of this Section 3.9 shall constitute an immediate Event of Default under the Note.

Section 3.10 Mandatory Prepayment from Capital Raises. If, at any time prior to the payment in full of the Note, the Company consummates any financing, capital raise, or sale of securities (other than sales of Common Stock pursuant to the ATM Financing), whether or not consented to by the Lender pursuant to Section 3.9 of this Amendment, the Company shall, within one (1) Business Day of receipt thereof, apply an amount equal to ninety percent (90%) of the net proceeds thereof to prepay the outstanding balance of the Note. Amounts so applied shall be credited against the remaining Minimum Installment Payments in inverse order of maturity and shall not reduce, defer, or excuse any scheduled Minimum Installment Payment otherwise due.
Section 3.11 Most Favored Nation. From the Third Amendment Date and for so long as the Note remains outstanding, the Company shall not enter into any agreement for the sale or issuance of its securities (including securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents) with any individual or entity (an “Other Investor”) that provides such Other Investor with rights, terms, or benefits more favorable in any material respect than those granted to the Lender under the Transaction Documents, without offering such more favorable rights, terms, or benefits to the Lender. The Company shall promptly provide written notice to the Lender of any such more favorable terms (the “MFN Notice”), including reasonable detail thereof and any related agreements, and the Lender shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to the Company within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of the MFN Notice, to receive the benefit of such more favorable terms, which shall automatically amend the Transaction Documents and any securities held by the Lender to incorporate such terms, and the parties shall execute such documentation as may be reasonably necessary to effectuate such amendment, including the physical exchange of securities if required. This Section 3.11 supplements, and does not limit, any most favored nations right existing under the Transaction Documents.
Section 3.12 Share Delivery; Buy-In. If the Company fails to cause its transfer agent to deliver to the Lender the shares of Common Stock issuable upon any conversion of the Note or exercise of the Warrant (as amended hereby) on or before the second (2nd) Trading Day following the applicable conversion or exercise date (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall pay to the Lender, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the third (3rd) Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date) for each $1,000 of principal and interest being converted or exercise price being exercised, for each Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date until such shares are delivered or the Lender rescinds the applicable conversion or exercise. In addition, if, after the Share Delivery Date, the Lender purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Lender of the shares it anticipated receiving from such conversion or exercise (a “Buy-In”), the Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days of the Lender’s request, (a) pay to the Lender, in cash, the amount, if any, by which the Lender’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions) for the shares so purchased exceeds the product of the number of shares the Lender was entitled to receive multiplied by the price at which the Lender’s anticipated sale was made, and (b) at the election of the Lender, either reinstate the portion of the Note (or of the Warrant) so converted or exercised or deliver to the Lender the shares originally deliverable.

Section 3.13 Registration Liquidated Damages. If (i) the Registration Statement described in Section 3.4 of this Amendment is not filed with the Commission on or before August 31, 2026, (ii) such Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or before the date required by Section 2.3 of the Second Amendment, (iii) after effectiveness, the Lender is unable to use the prospectus included therein to resell Registrable Securities for any reason, or (iv) the Company fails to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144 under the Securities Act (each, a “Registration Event”, and the date on which any Registration Event occurs, an “Event Date”), then, as partial relief for the damages suffered by the Lender by reason thereof (which the parties agree are not capable of precise quantification), the Company shall pay to the Lender an amount in cash equal to five percent (5.0%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Note as of the Event Date, and an additional five percent (5.0%) of such outstanding principal balance on each thirty (30)-day anniversary of the Event Date (prorated for any period of less than thirty (30) days) until the applicable Registration Event is cured. Each such payment shall be made within two (2) Trading Days after the Event Date or the applicable thirty (30)-day anniversary, as the case may be; any amount not paid when due shall be added to and constitute part of the principal balance of the Note and shall accrue interest at the Amendment Rate. The remedies set forth in this Section 3.13 are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies of the Lender under the Transaction Documents, including in respect of any Event of Default arising from the events described above.
