The address of the Issuer’s principal executive office is 2120 Colorado Avenue, #230, Santa Monica, California 90404.

“            As described in more detail in Item 4 of this Statement, on June 10, 2021, the Company issued 8,361,308 shares of Common Stock to Acuitas pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (as defined below).”

Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended and supplemented to include the following information:

“          As previously disclosed, on April 27, 2021, Acuitas and NeurMedix, Inc., a Delaware corporation that is indirectly wholly owned by Mr. Peizer (“NeurMedix”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 27, 2021 (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company, NeurMedix and Acuitas (solely for purposes of Section 10.16 thereof), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire certain assets from NeurMedix and assume certain liabilities of NeurMedix.

The Closing under the Purchase Agreement took place on June 10, 2021. In connection with the Closing, NeurMedix assigned the rights to receive the Initial Cash Payment and the Initial Stock Consideration (each, as defined in the Purchase Agreement) under the Purchase Agreement to Acuitas pursuant to a letter agreement, dated as of June 10, 2021, between NeurMedix and the Company, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4.

“(a)         The approximate aggregate percentage of the Issuer’s Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, as reported herein, is based on 22,333,324 shares of Common Stock of the Company, which is the sum of (i) 13,972,016 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of May 9, 2021, as disclosed in the Information Statement on Schedule 14C filed by the Company with the SEC on May 20, 2021, and (ii) 8,361,308 shares of Common Stock issued to Acuitas on June 10, 2021 pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, as described in more detail in Item 4 of this Statement.
