\n
All statements in this press release that are not historical are forward-looking statements, including, among other things, the impact that the transaction will have on the Company\u2019s balance sheet and its ongoing cash requirements, the potential dilutive effect of the issuance of the securities in connection with the debt conversion agreement, its market position and market opportunity, expectations and plans as to its product development, manufacturing and sales, and relations with its partners and investors.
