NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2025
AND 2024
(Unaudited)
(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
Aura Systems, Inc., (“Aura”, “We” or the “Company”) a Delaware corporation, is engaged in the development, commercialization, and sale of products, systems, and components, using its patented and proprietary electromagnetic technology. Aura develops and sells AuraGen® axial flux mobile induction power systems to the industrial, commercial, and defense mobile power generation markets.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended on November 30, 2025 and 2024, have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. The Condensed Balance Sheet information as of February 28, 2025, was derived from the Company’s audited Financial Statements as of February 28, 2025, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on June 13, 2025. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report. The results of operations for the period ended November 30, 2025, may not necessarily be indicative of the results of the full fiscal year ending February 28, 2026.
The Company’s fiscal year ends on the last calendar day of February. Accordingly, the current fiscal year will end on February 28, 2026, and is referred to as “Fiscal 2026”. Our prior fiscal years ended February 28, 2025, February 29, 2024, and February 28, 2023, and are referred to as “Fiscal 2025”, “Fiscal 2024” and “Fiscal 2023”, respectively.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has not yet generated sufficient revenues to fund operations, has experienced recurring operating losses and relies on debt and equity offerings to generate working capital.
During the nine month period ended November 30,
2025, the Company recognized a net loss of $
In the event if the Company is unable to generate profits and is unable to obtain financing for its working capital requirements, it may have to curtail its business further or cease business altogether. Substantial additional capital resources will be required to fund continuing expenditures related to our research, development, manufacturing and business development activities. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to retain its current financing, to obtain additional financing, and ultimately to attain profitability.
5
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include assumptions made for inventory valuation, impairment testing of long-lived assets, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, assumptions used in valuing notes payable, derivative liabilities, assumptions used in valuing share-based compensation, and accruals for potential liabilities. Amounts could materially change in the future. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Credit and Other Risks
Financial instruments that potentially subject
the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and accounts receivable. Cash is deposited with a limited number of financial
institutions. The balances held at any one financial institution at times may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)
insurance limits of up to $
During the three months ended November 30, 2025,
one customer accounted for
During the nine months ended November 30, 2025,
one customer accounted for
As of November 30, 2025, four vendors accounted
for
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
Our primary source of revenue is the manufacture and delivery of axial flux induction motors and generator sets used primarily in mobile power applications. Our principal sales channel is sales to domestic end users and distributors and agents internationally. In accordance with ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue, net of discounts, for our generator sets at the time of product delivery and acceptance by the customer (i.e. point-in-time), which also corresponds to the passage of legal title to the customer and the satisfaction of our performance obligation to the customer.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants, and shares of common stock to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. Share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for such services.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
6
The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the derivative liabilities as their fair values were determined by using a Binomial pricing model. The Company’s derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting date, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in the statement of operations.
To determine the number of authorized but unissued shares available to satisfy outstanding convertible securities, the Company uses a sequencing method to prioritize its convertible securities as prescribed by ASC 815-40-35. At each reporting date, the Company reviews its convertible securities to determine their classification is appropriate.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company determines the fair values of its financial instruments based on a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The classification of a financial asset or liability within the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), the fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
| ● | Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets and liabilities in active markets; |
| ● | Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable either directly or indirectly; and |
| ● | Level 3 – Unobservable inputs. |
The recorded amounts of inventory, other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. The carrying amounts of notes payable and convertible notes payable approximate their respective fair values because of their current interest rates payable in relation to current market conditions.
The following table sets forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s assets and liabilities at fair value as of November 30, 2025 and February 28, 2025:

The Company estimated the fair value of the derivative liability using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The following table provides a roll-forward of the derivative liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable level 3 inputs for the period ended November 30, 2025, as follows:
| (amounts in thousands) | Fair Value of Derivative Warrant Liability | |||

| Change in fair value of derivative liability | ( | ) | ||
| November 30, 2025 | $ | |||
Loss per share
The Company’s loss per share amounts have been computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock assuming all potential shares had been issued, and the additional shares of common stock were dilutive. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution, using the as-if-converted method for convertible debt, and the treasury stock method for options and warrants, which could occur if all potentially dilutive securities were exercised.
For the nine months ended November 30, 2025 and 2024, the calculations of basic and diluted loss per share are the same because potentially dilutive securities would have had an anti-dilutive effect. The potentially dilutive securities consisted of the following:
| November 30, 2025 | November 30, 2024 | |||||||
| Warrants | ||||||||
| Options | ||||||||
| Convertible notes | ||||||||
| Total | ||||||||
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses which includes amendments that require disclosure in the notes to financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory; employee compensation; and depreciation, amortization and depletion expenses for each caption on the income statement where such expenses are included. The amendments are effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2027, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is in the process of evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Generally, the implicit rate of interest in arrangements is not readily determinable and the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease ROU asset includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives.

On November 30, 2025, there were insufficient authorized and unissued shares for the Company to satisfy all of its commitments to deliver shares. The Company’s sequencing policy resulted in the allocation of authorized and unissued shares in the following order at November 30, 2025 (i) Warrants, and (ii) Convertible Notes Payable and Convertible Notes Payable-Related Party (excluding the Convertible Note Payable-Kopple). The sequence is based upon reclassifying securities with the earliest maturity date first. This sequencing and the lack of sufficient authorized shares required the Company to classify the conversion option of the convertible note payable-Kopple as liabilities recorded at fair value at November 30, 2025 (see Note 8).

Overview
Our business is based on the exploitation of our Axial Flux Induction technology for both electric motors and generators. Our power generation solution based on axial flux induction is known as the AuraGen® for commercial and industrial applications and the VIPER for military applications. Aura’s axial flux induction technology provide: (i) higher motor/generator efficiency, that directly translated to lower cost for operations (ii) lighter and smaller machines that lead to lower manufacturing cost, (iii) higher reliability that results in less down time and maintenance cost, (iv) the only raw materials used for construction are copper and steel without any rare earth or any other types of permanent magnets. This immediately results in global availability without market risks as well as geopolitical risks of dependence on single source, and (v) the use of approximately 60% less of copper than the equivalent radial flux induction machines, results in less needed mining to extract the needed copper with direct positive environmental impact.
Our business model consists of three major components: (i) sales and marketing, iii) design and engineering and (iii) axial flux induction motors and generators manufacturing. Our sales and marketing approaches are composed of direct sales in North America and the use of agents and distributors in other areas. In addition, we are also exploring limited licensing of our technology to very large potential users as well as potential joint ventures with existing industrial motor/generator suppliers. The second component of our business model is focused on the design, engineer and commercialize of new commercial and industrial electric motors based on our axial flux induction for numerous applications such as pumps, compressors, and HVAC. We are also designing electric motors for both 2- and 4-wheel EV application, as well as, expending the product line for electric power generation. The third component of our business model is to set up manufacturing of the axial flux induction products being engineered and design.
We recently completed a 250-kW electric motor prototype based on our axial flux induction for EV applications. This activity is in conjunction with a large European tier 1 automotive supplier interest and inputs. We also completed the design for a 250-kW generator based on our axial flux induction technology. We expect to build this new generator over the next few months. We have also in May 2024 completed the installation of our new smaller 10-kW mobile power generator on a Polaris type ATV platform for US military applications. We started working directly with Polaris to perfect the output from the new generator on their platform. We completed the designs for 5 horsepower axial flux induction motor for swimming pool pump applications, and we also completed the design for a 10 horsepower axial flux induction motor for irrigation pump applications. We are also currently in discussions for usage of our technology for numerous wind turbines applications. During fiscal 2025 we also applied for 3 new patents related to axial flux induction machines.
In fiscal 2024 and 2025 we have significantly increased our engineering capabilities with having hired experts’ engineers in thermo dynamics (Ph.D.), electromagnetic motor design (Ph.D.) Power electronics & control (Ph.D.) and mechanical design (M.S.M.E). We have also acquired the latest in advance engineering tools such as Ansys Maxwell finite elements, MATLAB and 3-D solid work.
In Fiscal 2020 stockholders of the Company successfully removed Ronald Buschur, William Anderson and Si Ryong Yu from the Company’s Board of Directors and elected Ms. Cipora Lavut, Mr. David Mann and Dr. Robert Lempert as directors of the Company in their stead. See Item 3, Legal Proceedings for more information. Also, in Fiscal 2020, Melvin Gagerman –– Aura’s CEO and CFO since 2006 –– was replaced. In July 2019 Ms. Lavut succeeded Mr. Gagerman as President and Mr. Mann succeeded Mr. Gagerman as CFO. Dr. Lempert was appointed as Secretary of the Company by the Board of Directors also in July 2019.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial conditions and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and disclosures on the date of the financial statements. In preparing our financial statements, we have made our best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements. We use authoritative pronouncements, historical experience and other assumptions as the basis for making judgments. For these key estimates and assumptions, we made appropriate accounting estimates based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date. To the extent that there are significant differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial statements may be materially affected. Significant estimates include assumptions made for inventory reserve, impairment testing of long-lived assets, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, assumptions used in valuing derivative liabilities, assumptions used in valuing share-based compensation, and accruals for potential liabilities. Amounts could materially change in the future. Actual results could differ from those estimates. There were no changes to our critical accounting policies described in the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2025, that impacted our condensed financial statements and related notes included herein.
19
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In accordance with ASC 606, we recognize revenue, net of discounts, for our generator sets at time of product delivery to the domestic distributor (i.e. point-in-time), which also corresponds to the passage of legal title to the customer and the satisfaction of our performance obligations to the customer.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value, on an average cost basis. We review the components of inventory on a regular basis for excess or obsolete inventory based on estimated future usage and sales. When evidence exists that the net realizable value of inventory is lower than its cost, the difference is recognized as a loss in the period in which it occurs. Once inventory has been written down, it creates a new cost basis for inventory that may not be subsequently written up.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
Results of Operations
Three months ended November 30, 2025, compared to three months ended November 30, 2024
Revenues
Net revenue was $80 for the three months ended November 30, 2025, compared to $0 for the three months ended November 30, 2024. Revenues continue to be negatively impacted due to a generally low level of resources on our legacy products as well as our shift to the development and production of the prototype for our new product line. We cannot project with confidence the timing or amount of revenue that we can expect until the prototype is completed, which should be in Fiscal 2026.
Cost of Goods
Cost of goods sold was $0 in the three months ended November 30, 2025, compared to $0 for the three months ended November 30, 2024.
Engineering, Research and Development
Engineering, research and development expenses were $459 in the three months ended November 30, 2025, compared to $196 for the three months ended November 30, 2024.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense
Selling, general and administration (“SG&A”) expenses for the three months ending November 30, 2025, were $466 as compared to $673 for the three months ending November 30, 2025, a decrease of $207 in the three-month period ending November 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended November 30, 2024.
20
Other Income (Expense) and Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased by $121 to $358 for the three months ended November 30, 2025, as compared to $479 for the three months ended November 30, 2024. The Company estimated the fair value of the conversion option derivative liability using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and recorded the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $6,705 and $808 at November 30, 2025 and November 30, 2024, respectively.
Net Loss
We recorded net income of $5,502 and net losses of approximately $540 for the three months ended November 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in our net loss was due to several factors, as noted above, including the change in fair value of our derivative liability.
Nine months ended November 30, 2025, compared to nine months ended November 30, 2024
Revenues
Net revenue was $265 for the nine months ended November 30, 2025, compared to $50 for the nine months ended November 30, 2024. Revenues continue to be negatively impacted due to a generally low level of resources on our legacy products as well as our shift to the development and production of the prototype for our new product line. We cannot project with confidence the timing or amount of revenue that we can expect until the prototype is completed, which should be in Fiscal 2026.
Cost of Goods
Cost of goods sold was $25 in the nine months ended November 30, 2025, compared to $29 for the nine months ended November 30, 2024.
Engineering, Research and Development
Engineering, research and development expenses were $1,149 in the nine months ended November 30, 2025, compared to $745 for the nine months ended November 30, 2024.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense
Selling, general and administration (“SG&A”) expenses for the nine months ending November 30, 2025, were $1,528 as compared to $3,302 for the nine months ending November 30, 2025, a decreased of $1,774 in the nine-month period ending November 30, 2025, compared to the nine months ended November 30, 2024. The decrease was from $1,601 of stock-based compensation recorded in the prior year period, which did not occur during the current year period.
Other Income (Expense) and Interest Expense
Interest expense increased by $578 to $1,621 for the nine months ended November 30, 2025, as compared to $1,043 for the nine months ended November 30, 2024. During the nine months ended November 30, 2024, the Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $19,324, which did not occur in the current year period. The Company estimated the fair value of the conversion option derivative liability using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and recorded the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $1,954 and $2,203 at November 30, 2025 and November 30, 2024, respectively.
Net Loss
We recorded net losses of approximately $2,103 and $22,188 for the nine months ended November 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in our net loss was due to several factors, as noted above, including the recording of a loss on debt extinguishment to a related party, the prior year recording of stock stock-based compensation, and the change in fair value of our derivative liability.
21
Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the nine months ended November 30, 2025, we recorded a net loss of $2,104, used cash in operations of $2,457, and at November 30, 2025, had a stockholders’ deficit of $36,928. In addition, at November 30, 2025, notes payable and related accrued interest with an aggregate balance of $5,266 have reached maturity and are past due. These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least one year from the date of issuance of these financial statements. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in their report on the Company’s February 28, 2025, audited financial statements, raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Prior to Fiscal 2020, in order to maintain liquidity, we relied upon external sources of financing, principally equity financing and private indebtedness. We have no bank line of credit and will require additional debt or equity financing to fund ongoing operations. Based on a cash flow analysis performed by management, we estimate that we will need an additional $6 million to maintain existing operations for Fiscal 2026 and increase the volume of shipments to customers. We cannot assure that additional financing will be available nor that the commercial targets will be met in the amounts required to keep the business operating. The issuance of additional shares of equity in connection with such financing could dilute the interests of our existing stockholders, and such dilution could be substantial. If we cannot raise the funds needed, we will also be forced to make further substantial reductions in our operating expenses, which could adversely affect our ability to implement our current business plan and ultimately our viability as a company.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide disclosure under this Item 3.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our President and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. As of November 30, 2025, management’s assessment identified the following material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting:
We continue to have a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as disclosed in the February 28, 2025, Annual Report on Form 10-K, in that we have an insufficient number of full-time personnel with an appropriate level of U.S. GAAP knowledge and experience and ongoing training in the application of U.S. GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements commensurate with the Company’s financial reporting requirements.
Notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods disclosed in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2025, not previously identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2025 and issued on June 13, 2025 which have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
22
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
We are subject to the legal proceedings and claims discussed below as well as certain other legal proceedings and claims that have not been fully resolved and that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Our management evaluates our exposure to these claims and proceedings individually and in the aggregate and evaluates potential losses on such litigation if the amount of the loss is estimable and the loss is probable. However, the outcome of legal proceedings and claims brought against the Company is subject to significant uncertainty. Although management considers the likelihood of such an outcome to be remote, if one or more of these legal matters were resolved against the Company for amounts in excess of management’s expectations, the Company’s financial statements for that reporting period could be materially adversely affected. The Company settled certain matters subsequent to year end that did not individually or in the aggregate, have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or operating results.
Between July 2017 and March 2022, the Company was engaged in litigation with a former director, Robert Kopple, relating to more than $13 million and the current equivalent of the approximately 23 million warrants, exercisable for seven years at a price of $0.10 per share, which Mr. Kopple and his affiliated entities (collectively the “Kopple Parties”) claimed should have been originally issued to them pursuant to various agreements with the Company entered to between 2013-2016. In March 2022, the Company reached a settlement with the Kopple Parties that resolved all claims asserted against the Company without any admission, concession or finding of any fault, liability or wrongdoing on the part of the Company. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company agreed to pay an aggregate amount of $10 million over a period of seven years, including $3 million initial payment to be paid in June 2022. $150 was paid in June 2022, and the balance of the initial payment of $2.85 million was extended to May 29, 2023, In exchange for the extension, the Company was required to pay $165 in extension and forbearance fees in cash and $430 in accrued forbearance fees. Beginning in January 2023, interest accrues on the unpaid balance at a rate of 6%, compounded annually. All amounts, including all accrued interest and deferred fees, are to be paid no later than eight years from the date of the initial payment. The Kopple Parties have also received seven-year warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of approximately 3.3 million shares of our common stock at a price of $0.85 per share. The settlement also provides for standard mutual general release provisions and includes customary representations, warranties, and covenants, including certain increases in the amount payable to the Kopple Parties and the right of such parties to enter judgment against the Company if the Company remains in uncured default in its payment obligations under the settlement.
During the year ended February 29, 2024, the note was amended multiple times to extend the payment dates of the balance of the initial payment of $2,850, originally due in June 2022, and the first installment payment of $1,000, originally due in June 2023 (collectively, the “past due principal”). As a result of these amendments, the Company incurred additional extension and forbearance fees totaling $450 and adjustment to principal balance of $23 that was recorded as part of interest expense. As of February 29, 2024, outstanding principal balance amounted to $10,938, including the $3,850 past due principal (see below).
In March 2024, the Company and Kopple again amended the note payable. The amendment (i) replaced the requirement to pay the $3,850 past due principal balance with the requirement to pay $2,000 due December 15, 2024, effectively extending the payment of $1,850 to future periods; (ii) increased the stated interest rate to 10%; (iii) added a fee of $15 monthly until the Company makes a principal payment of $2 million by December 2024; (iv) effective August 30, 2024, the Company will grant Kopple a conversion right that gives Kopple the option to be able to convert the note payable into equity of the Company at a conversion price of the lower of $1.00 per share or 50% of the 10 day volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock; (v) during Fiscal 2025, will require the Company to pay 20% of all collected revenues within 10 days of the end of each fiscal quarter; toward the outstanding debt reduction (vi) will require the Company to pay Kopple 20% of any amount raised in new capital in the form of equity, debt or convertible debt above $3.5 million toward the outstanding debt reduction; (vii) reduces the exercise price of the warrants granted to Kopple in March 2022 from $0.85 per share to $0.50 per share; and (vii) extends the warrant expiration date from March 8, 2029, to March 31, 2031. The principal payment of $2 million was extended to March 31, 2025, for $100,000. Subsequently the principal payment was extended several times up to December 31, 2025 for an additional $225,000 payment.
On March 26, 2019, various stockholders of the Company controlling a combined total of more than 27.5 million shares delivered a signed written consent to the Company removing Ronald Buschur as a member of the Company’s Board and electing Cipora Lavut as a director of the Company. On March 27, 2019, those same stockholders delivered a further signed written consent to the Company removing William Anderson and Si Ryong Yu as members of the Company’s Board and electing Robert Lempert and David Mann as directors of the Company. These written consents represented a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock as of March 26, 2019, and March 27, 2019, respectively. Because of Aura’s refusal to recognize the legal effectiveness of the consents, on April 8, 2019, the stockholders filed suit in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware pursuant to Section 225 of the Delaware General Corporations Law, seeking an order confirming the validity of the consents and declaring that Aura’s Board consists of Ms. Lavut, Mr. Mann, Dr. Lempert, Mr. Douglas and Mr. Diaz-Versón, Jr. On July 8, 2019 the Court of Chancery entered final judgment in favor of the stockholder plaintiffs, confirming that (a) Ronald Buschur, Si Ryong Yu and William Anderson had been validly removed by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding stock acting by written consent (b) Ms. Lavut, Mr. Mann and Dr. Lempert had been validly elected by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding stock acting by written consent, and (c) the Company’s Board of Directors validly consists of Cipora Lavut, David Mann, Robert Lempert, Gary Douglas and Salvador Diaz-Versón, Jr. As a result of prior management’s unsuccessful opposition to this stockholders’ action filed in the Court of Chancery, such stockholders may be potentially entitled to recoup their litigation costs from the Company under Delaware’s corporate benefit doctrine and/or other legal provisions. To date, no final determination has been made as to the amount of recoupment, if any, to which such stockholders may be entitled.
