See Exhibit C for the Warrants.

In connection with the issuance of certain Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of the Issuer, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), previously held by the Corre Holders, all of which has been redeemed by the Issuer for cash, the Issuer entered into a registration rights agreement with the purchasers to provide certain customary demand registration rights exercisable beginning on March 31, 2021, with respect to their shares of common stock, including those underlying the Preferred Stock and Warrants, shares of Preferred Stock, and the Warrants. See Exhibit D for the Registration Rights Agreement.
