In addition, the exercise price for the Common Warrants will be adjusted downward on the 5th and 10th trading days following the closing of this Offering to the price that is equal to 70% and 50%, respectively, of the initial exercise price of the Common Warrants; and upon each adjustment to the exercise price for the Common Warrants, the number of issuable warrant shares will be proportionately increased so that the nominal aggregate exercise price of the Common Warrants will remain the same.
