$1,860,000 converted their notes into 937,804 shares of the
Company’s common stock.
In
consideration for the early conversion of their notes, the note

common stock at a price of $2.80 per share at any time on or after
December 11, 2018 and at any time on or before June 11,
2020.
The
Company relied upon the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of
the Securities Act of 1933 in connection with issuance of the
securities described above. The persons who acquired these
securities were sophisticated investors and were provided full
information regarding the Company’s business and operations.

sale of these securities. The persons who acquired these securities
acquired them for their own accounts. The certificates representing
these securities will bear a restricted legend providing that they

statement or an exemption from registration. No commission was paid

securities.
