[1] On July 3, 2017, 2,660,000 Series S Warrants were issued in connection with the $5.0 million Senior Secured Notes Payable. While the Series S Warrants are exercisable for shares of common stock, if they had been outstanding at June 30, 2017, they would have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding, as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. See Note 14, Subsequent Events, for a discussion of the July 3, 2017 issuance the $5.0 million Senior Secured Promissory Notes and Series S Warrants.

[2] The holders of the Series A Warrants and the Series A-1 Warrants have the same rights to receive dividends as the holders of common stock. As such, the Series A Warrants and Series A-1 Warrants are considered participating securities under the two-class method of calculating net loss per share. The Company has incurred net losses to-date, and as the holders of the Series A Warrants and the Series A-1 Warrants are not contractually obligated to share in the losses, there is no impact on the Company's net loss per share calculation for the periods indicated.

[3] The 422,838 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, at the election of the holder, if-converted into a number of shares of common stock at a conversion ratio equal to its $6.00 per share stated value divided by a conversion price of $4.99 per share, with such conversion price subject to further reduction, would result in 508,422 incremental shares of newly-issued common stock at September 30, 2017.
