Key Details

• Private placement: 3,009,667 shares and/or pre‑funded warrants sold at $3.00 each; gross proceeds ≈ $9.0 million (closed March 10, 2026).
• Pre‑Funded Warrants: immediately exercisable at $0.001 per share, expire only when fully exercised, and include customary beneficial ownership limitations.
• Placement agents: Dominari Securities LLC and Revere Securities LLC received placement agent warrants equal to 8.0% of the shares sold (inclusive of shares underlying pre‑funded warrants), exercisable at $3.00 per share for five years, plus cash fees and expense reimbursements.
• Securities were sold in a private offering relying on Section 4(a)(2) and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D and are not registered under the Securities Act.

Why It Matters

• The transaction provides Aureus Greenway with near‑term capital (~$9M gross) that can support operations and the announced merger; investors should note the timing ties the financing to the merger process.
• The issued warrants (both pre‑funded and placement agent warrants) can increase the company’s outstanding shares if exercised, which may dilute existing shareholders.
• The securities are unregistered and subject to resale restrictions; investors should review the merger terms and any registration rights disclosed in the company’s filings for timing and potential impacts on liquidity.
