Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Pre-funded Warrant, the holder thereof may, at any time and from time to time on or after May 7, 2024, exercise the Pre-funded Warrant until it has been exercised in full. The Pre-funded Warrants contain an issuance limitation prohibiting the holder of such Pre-funded Warrants from exercising the Pre-funded Warrants until such time as the holder, together with certain related parties, would not beneficially own after any such exercise more than 9.99% of the then issued and outstanding common stock (the "Blocker"). Due to the Blocker, the Pre-funded Warrants held by ACP (as defined below) are not presently exercisable in full.
