Item 3.03.  Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
 
The Company’s Series V warrants expire on May 28, 2020 at an exercise price of $19.75. On May 26, 2020, the Company lowered the exercise price of its Series V warrants to $13.75 per share and extended the expiration date of the Series V warrants to June 25, 2020. The Series V warrants were originally issued as part of a financing on May 28, 2015. For each Series V warrant exercised on or before June 10, 2020 the former holder of the Series V warrant will receive one Series XX warrant. Every Series XX warrant will allow the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at a price of $18.00 per share at any time on or before September 10, 2020. For each Series V warrant exercised after June 10, 2020 but on or before June 25, 2020 the former holder of the Series V warrant will receive one Series YY warrant. Every two Series YY warrants will allow the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at a price of $20.00 per share at any time on or before September 25, 2020.
 
The Series XX and Series YY warrants (as the case may be), as well as any shares issued upon the exercise of the warrants, will be issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or any state securities laws, in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. Accordingly, if the Series XX or Series YY warrants are exercised, the shares which will be issued upon the exercise of the warrants will be restricted securities and may only be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission or pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the resale of those shares.
 
The Company plans to file a registration statement covering the resale of any shares issuable upon the exercise of the Series XX and Series YY warrants.
 
Due to regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, only accredited investors will be entitled to receive the Series XX or Series YY warrants.
