On July 24, 2019, our Board of Directors filled a vacancy and appointed David Polinsky to the Board of Directors.

Prior to Mr. Polinsky’s appointment to the Board of Directors, on July 23, 2019 (i) an entity with which he is affiliated purchased 349,650 shares of our common stock for $250,000 which represents a price per share of $0.715,  and (ii) through a subsidiary, we purchased certain assets from an entity with which Mr. Polinsky is affiliated for a) nominal cash consideration and b) future potential consideration, the value of which is based on meeting certain milestones related to the assets purchased.
