Note holders received warrants to purchase up to 20% of the value of their Notes in common stock at a strike price of $0.56, and also have an option to convert up to 50% of the Notes into shares of common stock at a premium to the current market price, with a floor of $0.65 per share and a ceiling of $1.00.
