Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

(a),(b)

 

The following table sets forth, as of the date of this Statement, the aggregate number and percentage of outstanding Securities which the Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own, as well as the number and percentage of Securities as to which the Reporting Person has or will have the sole power to vote or to direct the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote, sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition, and shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition. Securities over which the Reporting Person has or will have sole voting and sole dispositive power include (i) 336,816 shares of Common Stock owned by the Reporting Person, (ii) 3,381 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of warrants owned by the Reporting Person, and (iii) 14,961 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of non-statutory stock options held by the Reporting Person. Securities over which the Reporting Person previously reported having shared voting and shared dispositive power related to shares of Common Stock held in the estate of Robert S. McLain and a related trust as to which the Reporting Person was previously a co-trustee but with respect to which Reporting Person had no direct or indirect pecuniary interest. The Reporting Person is no longer a co-trustee of such estate or related trust and therefore no longer has shared voting or dispositive power related to the shares of Common Stock held in the estate. The percentage set forth below is based on 2,748,167 shares of Common Stock outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 17, 2024, plus 3,381 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all warrants owned by the Reporting Person, plus 14,054 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all non-statutory stock options held by the Reporting Person.
