The Company announced the closing of a private placement of unsecured subordinated promissory notes (the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $4.4 million and warrants with a strike price of $0.38 (the “Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 4,052,631 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), to certain accredited investors. The Company also announced the closing of a private placement of Common Stock to a single accredited investor for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $100,000 (collectively, the “Private Placements”).

In connection with closing of the Private Placements, the Company also announced it had entered into a modification to its existing senior credit facility with Western Alliance Bank to amend certain financial covenants and thresholds.

The Company expects the proceeds from the Private Placements will be sufficient to achieve the previously announced adjusted EBITDA breakeven run rate of $15.5 million of installed SaaS ARR , which it reiterated is expected to occur during the second half of fiscal 2024.

Additional details regarding the Private Placements will be included in a Form 8-K to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Accordingly, the Notes, the Warrants, the Common Stock and the Common Stock underlying the Warrants may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the SEC or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements and in accordance with applicable state securities laws. The securities were offered and sold to “accredited investors” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act.
