In the private placement, the Company agreed to sell 1,030,354 shares of common stock at a price of $6.785 per share, 3,391,164 pre-funded warrants at a price of $6.7849 per pre-funded warrant, and accompanying warrants to purchase 4,421,518 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $10.00 per share.
