On August 25, 1995, a wholly owned subsidiary of InFerGene Company merged with Zaxis International, Inc., an Ohio corporation, which following such merger, the surviving entity, InFerGene Company, changed its name to Zaxis International, Inc (“Zaxis”). In 2015 the Company changed its name to Emerald Medical Applications Corp., subsequent to which the Company, through its subsidiary, was engaged in the development of technology for use in detection of skin cancer. On January 29, 2018, the Company ceased its business operations in this field.

 

On January 17, 2018, the Company formed a new wholly owned subsidiary under the laws of the State of Israel, Virtual Crypto Technologies Ltd. (“VCT Israel”), to develop and market software and hardware products facilitating and supporting the purchase and/or sale of cryptocurrencies. Effective as of March 7, 2018, the Company’s name was changed from Emerald Medical Applications Corp. to Virtual Crypto Technologies, Inc. VCT Israel ceased its business operation in 2019 and prior to consummation of the Recapitalization Transaction. On January 27, 2020, VCT Israel was sold to a third party for NIS 50 thousand (approximately $13).

 

On February 7, 2019, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement” or the “Recapitalization Transaction”) with Gix Internet Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Gix” or “Parent Company’’), pursuant to which, Gix assigned, transferred and delivered its 99.83% holdings in Viewbix Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Viewbix Israel”), to the Company in exchange for shares of the Company, which resulted in Viewbix Israel becoming a subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the Share Exchange Agreement, effective as of August 7, 2019, the Company’s name was changed from Virtual Crypto Technologies, Inc. to Viewbix Inc.

 

B. Reorganization Transaction

 

On December 5, 2021, the Company entered into a certain Agreement and Plan of Merger with Gix Media Ltd. (“Gix Media”), an Israeli company and the majority-owned (77.92%) subsidiary of Gix, the Parent Company and Vmedia Merger Sub Ltd., an Israeli company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, Merger Sub merged with and into Gix Media, with Gix Media being the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Reorganization Transaction”).

 

On September 19, 2022, (the “Closing Date”) the Reorganization Transaction was consummated and as a result, all outstanding ordinary shares of Gix Media, having no par value (the “Gix Media Shares”) were delivered to the Company in exchange for the Company’s shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”). As a result of the Reorganization Transaction, the former holders of Gix Media Shares, who previously held approximately 68% of the Company’s Common Stock, hold approximately 97% of the Company’s Common Stock, and Gix Media became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

B. Reorganization Transaction (Cont.)

 

In connection with the Closing of the Reorganization Transaction, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended COI”) with the Secretary of State of Delaware, effective as of August 31, 2022, pursuant to which, concurrently with the effectiveness of the Amended COI, the Company, among other things, effected a reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio of 1-for-28.

 

As the Company and Gix Media Ltd. were consolidated both by the Parent Company and Medigus Ltd. (the “Ultimate Parent”), before and after the Reorganization Transaction, the Reorganization Transaction was accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control. Accordingly, the financial information of the Company and Gix Media Ltd. is presented in these financial statements, for all periods presented, reflecting the historical cost of the Company and Gix Media Ltd., as it is reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company, for all periods preceding March 1, 2022, the date the Ultimate Parent obtained a controlling interest in the Parent Company and as it is reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Ultimate Parent for all periods subsequent to March 1, 2022.

 

C. Business Overview

 

The Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”), Gix Media and Cortex Media Group Ltd. (“Cortex”), operate in the field of digital advertising. The Group has two main activities that are reported as separate operating segments: the search segment and the digital content segment.

 

The search segment develops a variety of technological software solutions, which perform automation, optimization, and monetization of internet campaigns, for the purposes of obtaining and routing internet user traffic to its customers. The search segment activity is conducted by Gix Media.

 

The digital content segment is engaged in the creation and editing of content, in different languages, for different target audiences, for the purposes of generating revenues from leading advertising platforms, including Google, Facebook, Yahoo and Apple, by utilizing such content to obtain and route internet user traffic for its customers. The digital content segment activity is conducted by Cortex.

 

On January 23, 2023, Gix Media acquired an additional 10% of the share capital of Cortex, increasing its holdings to 80% in consideration for $2,625 (the “Subsequent Purchase”). The Subsequent Purchase was financed by Gix Media’s existing cash balances and by a long-term bank loan received on January 17, 2023, in the amount of $1,500 (see also note 6.B).

 

The Subsequent Purchase was recorded as a transaction with non-controlling interests in the Company’s statement of changes in shareholders equity for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

D. Impact of the “Iron Swords” War on Israel

 

On October 7, 2023, following the brutal attacks on Israel by Hamas, a terrorist organization located in the Gaza Strip that infiltrated Israel’s southern border and conducted a series of attacks on civilian and military targets, Israel’s security cabinet declared war (the “War”). Following the commencement of the War, hostilities also intensified between Israel and Hezbollah, a terrorist organization located in Lebanon. This may escalate in the future into a greater regional conflict. The War led to a reduction of business activities in Israel, evacuation of residences located in the northern and southern borders of Israel, a significant call up of military reserves and lower availability of work force.

 

As the Group’s customers are mainly in the US and Europe, its operations, revenues, and profitability were indirectly affected due to recruitment of senior employees to military reserves for an extended period of time. In January 2024, the Gix Media and Cortex filed a request with the Israeli Tax Authority (the “ITA”) to receive compensation for the decrease in revenues related to the War. In April and May 2024, Gix Media and Cortex received a total of $337 from the ITA that were recorded as other income in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the six months period ended June 30, 2024.

 

As of the date of these financial statements the war is still on going. Therefore, there is no assurance that future developments of the War will not have any impact for reasons beyond the Company’s control, such as expansion of the War to additional regions and the recruitment of more senior employees. The Company has business continuity procedures in place, and will continue to follow developments, assessing potential impact, if any, on the Company’s business, financials, and operations.

 

E. Cortex Adverse Effect

 

In April 2024, the Company was informed by Cortex that a significant customer of Cortex recently notified Cortex it will stop advertising on Cortex’s sites, as part of its policy decision to cease advertising on Made for Advertising (“MFA”) sites (the “Cortex Adverse Effect”). The Cortex Adverse Effect, which has materially affected Cortex’s business and operations, has occurred following certain recent developments relating to publishers that are categorized by a number of on-line advertisers as MFA, including decisions made by leading media on-line advertisers to prioritize different media categories and implement publishing restrictions in connection with MFA. Due to the Cortex Adverse Effect and additional circumstances as explained in note 5.B, the Company recorded an impairment of $4,739 in the goodwill related to the digital content segment.

NOTE 1: GENERAL (Cont.)

 

F. Going Concern

 

During the second half of 2023 and the six months ended June 30, 2024 the Company experienced a decrease in its revenues from the digital content and search segments, as a result of the Cortex Adverse effect (see note 1.E), a decrease in user traffic acquired from third party advertising platforms, an industry-wide decrease in advertising budget, changes and updates to internet browsers’ technology, which adversely impacted the Company’s ability to acquire traffic in the search segment and a decrease in revenues from routing of traffic acquired from third-party strategic partners in the search segment, as a result of lack of availability of suppliers credit from such third party strategic partners. As a result of the foregoing, during the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded an operating loss of $6,490 compared to an operating profit of $174 in the six months ended June 30, 2023. Additionally, the Company recorded a net loss of $9,374 during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $428 in the six months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $609, bank loans of $5,789 and accumulated deficit of $18,837.

 

The decline in revenues and other circumstances described above raise substantial doubts about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern during the 12-month period following the issuance date of these financial statements.

 

Management’s response to these conditions included reduction of salaries and related expenses and reduction of professional services in the research and development, selling and marketing functions, reduction of other operational expenses, such as lease costs and overheads, as well as creation of new partnerships and other new income sources. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2024, the company entered into a facility agreement (see Note 6.E) and subsequent to the balance sheet date raised through a private placement and through two additional facility agreements with certain investors and lenders (see note 12) aggregate gross proceeds of $887. Additionally, the Company plans to uplist its shares of common stock to a national securities exchange (the “Uplist”), after which, in accordance with the terms of the aforesaid private placement and facility agreements, the company is expected to receive additional funds. Furthermore, the company’s subsidiaries entered into an addendum to the loan agreement with Bank Leumi pursuant to which loans repayments were deferred while short term credit lines with Bank Leumi continued to be utilized. However, there is significant uncertainty as to whether the Company will further succeed to implement its plans or be able to secure additional funds when needed.

 

These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

A. Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments except as otherwise discussed). For further information, reference is made to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Group’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

B. Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

C. Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company evaluates on an ongoing basis its assumptions, including those related to contingencies, deferred taxes, inventory impairment, stock-based compensation, as well as in estimates used in applying the revenue recognition policy. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

 

D. Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Derivative instruments are initially recorded at fair value on the grant date and re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the unaudited condensed statements of operations.

 

E. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid to transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. US GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets.

 

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

 

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

F. Significant Accounting Policies

 

The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are identical to those applied in the preparation of the latest annual financial statements other than the significant accounting policies of derivative financial instruments and fair value of financial instruments (see notes 2.D and 2.E above).

 

G. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Group’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3: LOAN TO PARENT COMPANY

 

  

As of

June 30 2024

  

As of

December 31 2023

 
           
Loan to Parent Company  $3,865   $3,752 

 

The balance with the Parent Company represents a balance of an intercompany loan under a loan agreement signed between Gix Media and the Parent Company on March 22, 2020. The loan bears interest at a rate to be determined from time to time in accordance with Section 3(j) of the Income Tax Ordinance, new version, and the Income Tax Regulations (Determination of Interest Rate for the purposes of Section 3(j), 1986) or according to a market interest rate decision as agreed between the parties. The amount of the loan is in U.S. dollars. On March 20, 2024, the Company’s board of directors approved to extend the loan between Gix Media and the Parent Company by 6 months until July 1, 2024. All other terms and conditions of the loan remained unchanged.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, Gix Media recognized interest income in the amount of $79 and $43, respectively.

 

NOTE 4: LEASES

 

On February 25, 2021, Gix Media entered into a lease agreement for a new corporate office of 479 square meters in Ramat Gan, Israel, at a monthly rent fee of $10. The lease period is for 36 months (the “initial lease period”) with an option by the Company to extend the lease period for two additional terms of 24 months each. In accordance with the lease agreement, the Company made leasehold improvements in exchange for a rent fee discount of $67 which will be spread over the initial lease period.

 

The Company includes renewal options that it is reasonably certain to exercise in the measurement of the lease liabilities. In December 2023, the Company exercised the option to extend the lease period for an additional term of 24 months (from March 1, 2024, to February 28, 2026).

 

On June 20, 2024, Gix Media and the lessor of its offices entered into a lease termination agreement. According to the agreement, the lease, which originally had a termination date of February 28, 2026, terminated on June 30, 2024. In compensation for the lessor’s consent to early termination Gix Media paid to the lessor $7 in cash and $62 in office furniture and equipment, as per the carrying values of such assets on the Company’s books as of the early termination date.

 

As a result of the early termination of the agreement, the Company recorded a capital loss of $46 in other expenses in its statement of operations for the six months period ended June 30, 2024.

  B. Impairment of goodwill:

 

As of June 30, 2024, the Company identified indicators of impairment of the digital content reporting unit. As a result, the Company performed an impairment test which included a quantitative analysis of the fair value of the reporting unit. The fair value was estimated using the income approach, which is based on the present value of the future cash flows attributable to the reporting unit. The Company compared the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount. As the carrying amount exceeded the fair value, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $4,739 which was driven mainly due to the Cortex Adverse Effect (see note 1.E) and due to a decrease in the cash flow projections.

 

As of December 31, 2023, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $5,107 related to the digital content reporting unit.

  D. Long term loan and issuance of warrants:

 

On November 15, 2023, Viewbix Israel entered into a Loan Agreement (the “2023 Loan”) with certain lenders (the “Lenders”) whereby the Lenders provided Viewbix Israel with loans in the aggregate amount of $480. In connection with the 2023 Loan, the Company issued to each lender a warrant to purchase shares of common stock (the “2023 Warrants”). The 2023 Warrants are exercisable to 480,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $0.50 per share and will expire and cease to be exercisable on December 31, 2025. The Company recorded the 2023 Warrants as an equity instrument.

These amendments represent a substantial modification in accordance with ASC Topic 470. Accordingly, the terms modification was accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the initial recognition of new financial instruments issued at their fair value as of the effective date of the June 2024 Facility Agreement.

  E. June 2024 Facility Agreement:

 

On June 18, 2024, the Company entered into a credit facility agreement which was amended and restated on July 22, 2024 (the “June 2024 Facility Agreement”) for a $1 million credit facility (the “June 2024 Facility Loan Amount”) with a group of lenders including L.I.A. Pure Capital Ltd (the “June 2024 Lead Lender”, and collectively, the “June 2024 Lenders”). In addition to the June 2024 Facility Loan Amount, the June 2024 Facility Agreement includes $531 of outstanding debt owed by the Company to the June 2024 Lenders (the “June 2024 Prior Loan Amount”, and together with the June 2024 Facility Loan Amount, the “June 2024 Loan Amount”).

 

The term (the “June 2024 Facility Term”) of the June 2024 Facility Agreement expires 12 months following the date of the June 2024 Facility Agreement (the “Initial Maturity Date”), provided that, if the effectiveness of an uplisting of the Company’s shares of common stock to a national securities exchange (the “Uplist”) occurs prior to the Initial Maturity Date, the June 2024 Facility Term will expire 12 months following the effective date of the Uplist. The June 2024 Facility Agreement sets forth a drawdown schedule as follows: (i) an aggregate amount of $350 was drawn down on the date of the Prior June 2024 Facility Agreement, (ii) an aggregate amount of $150 drawn down upon the filing of the Company’s PIPE Registration Statement (as defined in note 12.A) and (iii) an amount of $500 drawn down upon the effectiveness of the Uplist.

 

The June 2024 Facility Loan Amount accrues interest at a rate of 12% per annum, and the Company will also pay such interest on the June 2024 Prior Loan Amount, which is equal to $184 (the “June 2024 Facility Interest”). The June 2024 Facility Interest was paid in advance for the first year of the June 2024 Facility in (i) shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of $0.25 for each U.S. dollar of June 2024 Facility Interest accrued on the respective June 2024 Loan Amount, equal to an aggregate of 734,716 shares of common stock (the “June 2024 Facility Shares”) and (b) a warrant to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to the June 2024 Facility Shares (the “June 2024 Facility Warrant”).

 

Immediately following the effectiveness of the Uplist, (i) $663 of the June 2024 Loan Amount will convert into shares of common stock at a conversion rate equal to $0.25 per share of the Company’s common stock (the “June 2024 Convertible Stock”) and (ii) the company will issue a warrant in substantially the same form and on substantially the same terms as a June 2024 Facility Warrant to purchase a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the June 2024 Convertible Stock with an exercise price of $0.25 per share (the “June 2024 Conversion Warrant”, and (i) and (ii), collectively a “June 2024 Conversion Unit”). Such portion of the June 2024 Loan Amount that is not converted into a June 2024 Conversion Unit will remain outstanding and will not convert following the Uplist. For the duration of the June 2024 Facility Term of the June 2024 Facility Agreement, the June 2024 Lenders may elect to convert after the effectiveness of the Uplist such unconverted portion of the June 2024 Loan Amount into additional June 2024 Conversion Units or, upon the expiration of the June 2024 Facility Term, such unconverted portion of the June 2024 Loan Amount will be repaid in accordance with the terms of the June 2024 Facility Agreement.

 

The June 2024 Facility Warrants are exercisable upon issuance at an exercise price of $0.25 per share of common stock and will have a three-year term from the issuance date.

 

In addition and in connection with the June 2024 Facility Agreement, the Company agreed to pay the June 2024 Lead Lender a commission consisting of (i) 200,000 shares of common stock, (ii) a warrant in substantially the same form and on substantially the same terms as the June 2024 Facility Warrant to purchase 200,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $0.25 per share (the “June 2024 Lead Lender Warrant”) and (iii) a warrant to purchase 2,500,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $1.00 per share, representing an aggregate exercise amount of $2.5 million, subject to beneficial ownership limitations and adjustments (the “June 2024 Lead Lender Fee Warrant” and together with the June 2024 Lead Lender Warrant and the June 2024 Facility Warrants, the “June 2024 Warrants”) see also note 12.B.

 

The conversion and conversion related features of the June 2024 facility loan were bifurcated from their host debt contract and recognized as liabilities measured at fair value at each cut-off date. The facility loan was initially recorded at its fair value and subsequently measured at cost. The shares and Warrants A issued as prepayment of interest and as commission to the 2024 Lead Lender were initially recognized at fair value and classified in equity. The June 2024 Lead Lender Warrant was initially recognized at fair value and classified as a liability measured at fair value at each cut-off date (see note 7).

NOTE 9: SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY (Cont.)

 

C. Share option plan

 

In 2017, after the completion of Gix Media’s acquisition by the Parent Company, the Parent Company granted options to Gix Media’s employees. These options entitle the employees to purchase ordinary shares of the Parent Company that are traded on Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange.

 

On March 2, 2023, the Board approved the adoption of the 2023 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”). The 2023 Plan permits the issuance of up to (i) 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock, plus (ii) an annual increase equal to the lesser of (A) 5% of the Company’s outstanding capital stock on the last day of the immediately preceding calendar year; and (B) such smaller amount as determined by the Board, provided that no more than 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock may be issued upon the exercise of Incentive Stock Options. If any outstanding awards expire, are canceled or are forfeited, the underlying shares would be available for future grants under the 2023 Plan. As of the date of approval of the financial statements, the Company had reserved 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the 2023 Plan.

 

The 2023 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock or other stock-based awards, under various tax regimes, including, without limitation, in compliance with Section 102 and Section 3(i) of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance (New Version) 5271-1961, and for awards granted to United States employees or service providers, including those who are deemed to be residents of the United States for tax purposes, Section 422 and Section 409A of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

 

In connection with the adoption of the 2023 Plan, on March 7, 2023, the Company entered into certain intercompany reimbursement agreements with two of its subsidiaries, Viewbix Israel and Gix Media (the “Recharge Agreements”). The Recharge Agreements provide for the offer of awards under the 2023 Plan to employees or service providers of Viewbix Israel and Gix Media (the “Affiliates”) under the 2023 Plan. Under the Recharge Agreements, the Affiliates will each bear the costs of awards granted to its employees or its service providers under the 2023 Plan and will reimburse the Company upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to an award, for the costs of shares issued, but in any event not prior to the vesting of an award. The reimbursement amount will be equal to the lower of (a) the book expense for such award as recorded on the financial statements of one of the respective Affiliates, determined and calculated according to U.S. GAAP, or any other financial reporting standard that may be applicable in the future, or (b) the fair value of the shares of Common Stock at the time of exercise of an option or at the time of vesting of an RSU, as applicable.

 

On July 20, 2023, the Company granted 51,020 restricted share units (the “RSUs”) under the 2023 Plan to Gix Media’s CEO, as part of his employment terms, (the “Grantee”) under the following terms and conditions: (1) 51,020 of Common Stock underlying the grant of RSUs (2) Vesting Commencement Date: July 1, 2023 (3) vesting schedule: 50% of the RSUs will vest immediately upon the Vesting Commencement Date (the “First Tranche”) and the remaining 50% of the RSUs will vest 12 months after the Vesting Commencement Date (the “Second Tranche”), provided, in each case, that the Grantee remains continuously as a Service Provider (as defined under the 2023 Plan) of Gix Media or its affiliates throughout each such vesting date (the “Grant”).

NOTE 11: SEGMENT REPORTING

 

The Group operates in two different segments in such a way that each company in the Group operates as a separate business segment.

 

Search segment- the search segment develops a variety of technological software solutions, which perform automation, optimization and monetization of internet campaigns, for the purposes of obtaining and routing internet user traffic to its customers.

 

Digital content segment- the digital content segment is engaged in the creation and editing of content, in different languages, for different target audiences, for the purposes of generating revenues from leading advertising platforms, including Google, Facebook, Yahoo and Apple, by utilizing such content to obtain internet user traffic for its customers.

 

The segments’ results include items that directly serve and/or are used by the segment’s business activity and are directly allocated to the segment. As such they do not include depreciation and amortization expenses for intangible assets created at the time of the purchase of those companies, financing expenses created for loans taken for the purpose of purchasing those companies and therefore these items are not allocated to the various segments.

 

Segments’ assets and liabilities are not reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision maker and therefore were not reflected in the segment reporting.

The First July 2024 Facility Loan Amount will remain available until the earliest of (a)(i) its drawing down in full, (ii) the 36-month anniversary of the First July 2024 Facility Agreement and (b) upon such date that the Company completes a $2.0 million financing transaction (the “First July 2024 Facility Term”).

The First July 2024 Facility Amount will accrue interest at a rate of 12% per annum.
