In January 2021, QSAM Biosciences, Inc. (the "Company") closed a Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series B Shares") private placement and issued a total of 2,500 Series B Shares at a price of $1,000 per share, raising an aggregate of $2.5 million inclusive of debt conversion, as previously reported in the Company's Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2021. At such closing, the Company also issued to investors of the Series B Shares non-registered warrants, with an original expiration date of July 8, 2021, to purchase an aggregate of up to 6.27 million shares of common stock at $0.35 per share (the "Warrants").
On June 17, 2021, as previously reported in the Company's Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2021, the expiration date was extended by Board resolution to September 30, 2021. The expiration date was subsequently extended in September 2021 by Board resolution to October 15, 2021, and the exercise price was reduced from $0.35 to $0.25 due to market conditions.
