Schedule 13G regulatory
"EXHIBIT 99 - AGREEMENT REGARDING JOINT FILING OF STATEMENT ON SCHEDULE 13D OR 13G"
A Schedule 13G is a formal document that investors file with the government when they acquire a large ownership stake in a company, usually for investment purposes rather than control. It helps keep the public informed about who owns significant parts of a company's shares, which can influence how the company is managed and how investors make decisions. Filing this schedule is important for transparency and understanding the ownership landscape of publicly traded companies.
beneficial ownership limitation financial
"warrants to acquire 250,000 shares of Common Stock, subject to a 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation"
A beneficial ownership limitation is a rule that caps the percentage of a company’s shares an investor can be treated as owning or controlling for voting, regulatory or tax purposes. It matters to investors because it can restrict how many shares a person or group can buy or vote, affect takeover chances, and influence share liquidity and value — like a speed limit that prevents any single driver from taking over the whole road.
beneficially owned financial
"The securities beneficially owned by the reporting persons consist of (1) 703,739 shares"
Beneficially owned describes securities or assets where a person has the economic rights and control—such as the right to receive dividends and to direct voting—even if legal title is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and using a car that’s registered to someone else: you get the benefits and make decisions. Investors care because beneficial ownership reveals who truly controls value and voting power, affecting corporate decisions and takeover dynamics.
pecuniary interest financial
"Each reporting person also disclaims beneficial ownership of shares of Common Shares except to the extent of that person's pecuniary interest"
shared dispositive power financial
"Shared Dispositive Power 953,739.00"
