Such approval was achieved by the written consent of one holder of both the common stock and the Series A Super Voting Preferred Stock that votes together as a class with the common stock.

The Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq"), and the Company is subject to Nasdaq’s rules and regulations, including Nasdaq Rule 5635(d), which requires stockholder approval prior to the issuance in a transaction (other than a public offering) of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) equal to 20% or more of the outstanding common stock or 20% or more of the voting power of a company for a purchase price that is lower than (i) the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the signing of a binding agreement; or (ii) the average Nasdaq Official Closing Price of the common stock (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement (such lower amount, the “Minimum Price"). Such approval was achieved by obtaining the written consent of one holder of both the common stock and the Series A Super Voting Preferred Stock that votes together as a class with the common stock.

The approval of the Private Placement for purposes of Nasdaq Rule 5635(d) was taken by written consent pursuant to Section 228 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, which provides that any action that may be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding common stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. The Company has obtained the approval of the Private Placement from stockholders holding a majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding voting securities.

In connection with the adoption of these resolutions, the Board had been informed that the Majority Stockholders were in favor of this proposal and would enter into a written consent approving the Private Placement. On December 22, 2023, the Majority Stockholders consented in writing to the Private Placement.

There are no rights of appraisal or similar rights of dissenters with respect to the Nasdaq Stockholder Approval.

PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Purpose of the Private Placement

The Board believes it is in the best interests of the Company to raise capital in the amount of up to $5,200,000 in a private placement transaction to fund the working capital needs of the Company.

Description of the Private Placement

On December 22, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement") with a certain institutional investor (the “Investor"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to the Investor, in a private placement (the “Private Placement"), Senior Secured 15% Original Issue Discount Convertible Promissory Notes (the "Notes") in the aggregate principal amount of up to $5,200,000 which will result in gross proceeds to the Company in the amount of up to $4,420,000 due to the original issue discount, and warrants (the “Warrants") to purchase a number of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrant Shares”) equal to 50% of the face value of the Notes divided by the volume weighted average price, in three tranches (such transaction, the “Private Placement”). The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by the Company and, additional closings are subject to additional closing conditions detailed in the transaction documents.

The Notes have a collective original principal amount of $5,200,000 for which the Investor will give consideration of $4,420,000, reflecting an original issue discount of $780,000. The Notes will be issued in three tranches, consisting of principal amounts of $2,000,000, $1,000,000 and $2,200,000, and gross procereds to the Company of $1,700,000, $850,000 and $1,870,000, respectively, due to the original issue discount. The obligation of Investor to invest in each Note is subject to various closing conditions. There can be no assurance that those conditions will be met or that the Investor will make each of the investments at the maximum principal amounts specified in the preceding sentence or at any amount.

The Warrants are exercisable into shares of the Company’s common stock. The holder of the Warrants may choose to pay the exercise price of the Warrants in cash or through a cashless exercise mechanism. In the case of a cashless exercise, the maximum number of shares issuable at the floor price is 4,061,204 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Under the first tranche of funding, which closed upon signing of the Purchase Agreement on December 28, 2023, the Company issued a Note to the Investor in the principal amount of $2,000,000 which resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of $1,700,000 and Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 357,500 Warrant Shares. The Note and Warrants issued in the first tranche of funding have an initial fixed conversion and exercise price of $3.44688 per share, respectively, subject to adjustment. The Warrants carry a 5-year term and, if not exercised, will terminate on December 28, 2028.

Upon the 60^th day following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement (as defined below), and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, a second tranche of funding may be provided by the Investor with the mutual consent of the Company and the Investor in the aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000, for gross proceeds to the Company of $850,000. Such additional principal amounts, if funded, will be represented by a new Note, and the Investor will be entitled to receive additional Warrants to purchase Warrant Shares equal to 50% of the face value of the Note divided by the volume weighted average price.

Upon the 90^th day following the closing of the second tranche of funding, and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, a third tranche of funding may be provided by the Investor with the mutual consent of the Company and the Investor in the aggregate principal amount of $2,200,000, for gross proceeds to the Company of $1,870,000. Such additional principal amounts, if funded, will be represented by a new Note, and the Investor will be entitled to receive additional Warrants to purchase Warrant Shares equal to 50% of the face value of the Note divided by the volume weighted average price.

Each Note matures 18 months after issuance, does not bear any interest unless an event of default occurs, in which case the Note will bear interest at an annual rate of 18%, and is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Conversion Shares") at an initial conversion price equal to $3.44688, provided that if an event of default has occurred and is continuing without cure, the conversion price will be the lesser of (i) $3.44688, (ii) 95% of the average of the three lowest daily volume weighted average prices of the common stock during the 20 trading days immediately preceding the notice of conversion of the Note, and (iii) 80% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price in the 10 trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion date, subject to adjustment as further specified in the Note. Each Note is fully repayable in cash upon maturity. In addition, the Investor has the option of requiring prepayment of up to 25% of the issuance amount of a subsequent financing. In addition, as to each Note, beginning on the earlier of (i) 60 days from issuance and (ii) the date on which the resale registration statement registering the Conversion Shares issuable under the Note and the Warrant Shares issuable under the corresponding Warrants has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company must make monthly payments equal to 105% of the total principal amount multiplied by the quotient determined by dividing one by the number of months remaining until the maturity date as of the initial payment date (the “Monthly Payments"), until the principal amount has been paid in full prior to or on the maturity date or, if earlier, upon acceleration, conversion or redemption of the Note in accordance with its terms. The Monthly Payments are payable in cash; provided that subject to certain limitations the Company may elect to pay all or part of a Monthly Payment in Conversion Shares in lieu of a cash payment based on a price per share equal to the lower of (i) conversion price then in effect, and (ii) 95% of the average of the three lowest daily volume weighted average prices of the common stock during the 20 trading days immediately preceding the applicable payment date, subject to adjustment and to the floor price set forth in the applicable Note. If for any Monthly Payment the number of Conversion Shares issued as payment is limited by the floor price, the Company is required to pay the economic difference in cash.

The Note contains a number of customary events of default. Additionally, the Notes are secured by all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, pursuant to a security agreement that was entered into with the Investor, in connection with the issuance of the Note (the "Security Agreement"). In addition to the Security Agreement, the Company also entered into a pledge agreement pledging the entire capital stock and other equity interests in its subsidiaries to the Investor, in connection with the issuance of the Notes (the “Pledge Agreement"). Lastly, to further secure the Company’s obligations under the Notes, Devcool, Inc., Company’s wholly owned subsidiary ("Devcool"), also executed a Subsidiary Guarantee (the “Subsidiary Guarantee"), pursuant to which Devcool agrees to guaranty the Company’s obligations owed to the Investor. An Intercreditor Agreement (the “Intercreditor Agreement") by and between Seacoast Business Funding and the Investor was also entered into.

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company also entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement") with the Investor, pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering the resale of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares within 15 days after the closing of the first tranche of funding and within 15 days each after the closing of the second tranche and the third tranche of funding, as applicable, and to cause any such Registration Statement to become effective within 60 days after filing.

The offer and sale of the Notes, the Conversion Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act"), or applicable state securities laws, and accordingly may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such applicable state securities laws.

The above descriptions of the terms and conditions of the Form of the Notes, the Form of the Warrants, the Purchase Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, the Subsidiary Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement do not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements and instruments, which are attached to a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the SEC on January 2, 2024, as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6, respectively, and are incorporated by reference herein.

Potential Effect of the Private Placement

Any issuance of additional shares of Common Stock as a result of the conversion of the Note(s) or exercise of the Warrants will dilute the ownership and voting rights of stockholders and, depending upon the price at which the shares are issued, could have a negative effect on the trading price of the Company’s Common Stock.

Reason for Stockholder Approval

Pursuant to Nasdaq Stock Market Listing Rule 5635(d), if an issuer intends to issue securities in a transaction which could result in the issuance of 20% or more of the issued and outstanding shares of the issuer’s common stock on a pre-transaction basis for less than the Minimum Price for such stock, the issuer generally must obtain the prior approval of its stockholders. The number of shares of common stock to be issued to the Investor in the Private Placement upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants could result in the issuance of a number of shares exceeding the threshold and pricing for which stockholder approval is required under Nasdaq Rule 5635(d). To ensure compliance with Nasdaq Rule 5635(d), the Majority Stockholders approved the Private Placement.

Use of Proceeds

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement as follows: $1,000,000 will be used for the Investor Reserve Amount, as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement, and the balance will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Approval of the Private Placement

The approval of the Private Placement, including for purposes of Nasdaq Rule 5635(d), requires the approval of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the Company, which consist of our outstanding Common Stock and our outstanding Series A Super Voting Preferred Stock, which vote together as a class with the Common Stock.

As of January 9, 2024 (the “Record Date”), there were outstanding 4,308,822 shares of our Common Stock, and 6,000 shares of our Series A Super Voting Preferred Stock. The holders of our outstanding shares of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share registered in their names on our books at the close of business on such date. The holder of the Series A Super Voting Preferred Stock is entitled to vote with the Company’s Common stock at a rate of 1,000 votes per share.

Our Board of Directors, on December 22, 2023, authorized and approved the Private Placement. Separately, one stockholder beneficially holding an aggregate of 136,523 shares (approximately 3.1%) of our outstanding shares of Common Stock and all of the 6,000 shares of Series A Super Voting Preferred Stock having an aggregate of 6,000,000 votes (and together with the Common Stock that such stockholder voted, representing approximately 59.2% of the shares entitled to vote thereon) on December 22, 2023, consented in writing to the Nasdaq Stockholder Approval. Accordingly, all corporate actions necessary to authorize and approve the Private Placement and the issuance of securities in connection therewith have been taken.

This Information Statement is first being mailed on or about January ___, 2024 to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the Record Date.

ACTIONS AUTHORIZED AND APPROVED
