On June 24, 2022, HeliosX shareholders authorized the Company to enter into one or more distributions of securities up to a maximum of 20% of the number of the Company's outstanding shares in the ensuing 12-month period. The Offering, once fully subscribed, will represent 17% of the Company's outstanding capitalization after completion of Offering.
