Item 1.01 - Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 19, 2023 we received a $250,000 loan from Abuse Deterrent Pharma, LLC ("AD Pharma"). This loan combined with a previous loan and with the $2,319,279 under the November 10, 2022 Amended Consolidated and Restated Secured Promissory Note, now totals $2,819,279, bears interest at 5.25% and matures on December 31, 2023, at which time all principal and interest is due. Events of default under the Note include, among other items, bankruptcy events, failure to pay interest and principal when due and such failure continues for 5 days, and if Acura is generally not, or is unable to, or admits in writing its inability to, pay its debts as they become due. If any amount payable hereunder is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, including upon an event of default, such overdue amount shall bear interest at the rate per annum of 7.5% from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full.

The funding provided by AD Pharma will be used for operations over the course of the next month. There can be no assurance we will be successful in receiving additional financing. In the absence of the receipt of additional financing by the end of February 2023, we will be required to scale back or terminate operations and/or seek protection under applicable bankruptcy laws. This could result in a complete loss of shareholder value in the Company. Even assuming we are successful in securing additional sources of financing to fund continued operations, there can be no assurance that the proceeds of such financing will be sufficient to fund operations until such time, if at all, that we generate sufficient revenue from our products and product candidates to sustain and grow our operation.

The inclusion of a description of the Note under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed an acknowledgement that the Note is a material agreement not made, or deemed not to be made, in the ordinary course of our business.

At January 15, 2023, AD Pharma directly owns approximately 66% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. The ownership percentage of the Company held by AD Pharma does not include their warrant to purchase 10.0 million shares of common stock of the Company. AD Pharma is an entity controlled by Mr. Schutte, of which Mr. Schutte is the managing partner and investor. At January 15, 2023, Mr. Schutte directly owns approximately 14% of the outstanding common stock of the Company.
