OUR COMPANY

 

Overview

 

We are a technology company that produces a plasma based system for the gasification and sterilization of liquid waste. A byproduct of our process is a hydrogen based fuel that we sell for metal cutting as an alternative to acetylene (“MagneGas2®”). In addition, we are developing the use of our fuel for co-combustion with hydrocarbon fuels to reduce emissions. We also market, for sale or licensure, our proprietary plasma arc technology for the processing of liquid waste (the “Plasma Arc Flow® System”). Through the course of our business development, we have established a retail and distribution platform to sell our fuel for use in the metalworking industries; we have developed a global network of brokers to sell our system for processing liquid waste and we are testing our fuel through a third party laboratory for use in the reduction of coal emissions. Additionally, we intend to acquire other gas distribution businesses in order to become a larger distributor of MagneGas2®, other industrial gases and related equipment 

 

Our Products

 

We currently have three products: the fuel called MagneGas2® for the metal working industry, the equipment primarily known in the firefighting industry, known as MagneTote, and the machines that produce MagneGas2®, known as Plasma Arc Flow® refineries. In addition, the Company sells metal cutting fuels and ancillary products through its wholly owned subsidiary, Equipment Sales and Service, Inc. (“ESSI”), a Florida corporation.

 

While our original fuel for the metal working industry was known as MagneGas®, we started selling MagneGas2® in July 2014 and stopped selling MagneGas® in March 2015.

 

Fuel

 

In the United States, we currently produce MagneGas2®, which is comprised primarily of hydrogen. The fuel can be used as an alternative to natural gas to power industrial equipment, automobiles and for metal cutting. The fuel is stored in hydrogen cylinders which are then sold to market on a rotating basis. Independent tests have confirmed that it cuts 38% faster than acetylene. The fuel has similar properties as acetylene making it easier for end users to adopt with limited training.

 

 2 

 

 

MagneTote is a storage and transport system that can be used by firefighters, military and first responders which allows quicker access to fuel. The system has been designed to be used in emergency extraction situations.

  

Equipment

 

The Plasma Arc Flow® System can gasify many forms of liquids and liquid waste such as used vegetable oils, ethylene glycol and sewage and sludge. Plasma Arc Flow® refineries have been configured in various sizes ranging from 50kw to 500kw depending on the application. Plasma Arc Flow® refineries range in price from $500,000 to $5 Million.

 

The Company is pursuing three major market segments:

 

  · Industrial Gas Sales

 

  · Equipment Sales for Liquid Waste Processing

 

  · Use of MagneGas2® for the Co-Combustion of Hydro-Carbon Fuels to Reduce Emissions

 

The Company’s Research and Development focuses on the following:

 

  · High volume processing of oil

 

  · Combustion of MagneGas2® with hydrocarbon fuels, such as coal, to reduce emission

 

  · Third party verification of fuel and equipment safety and performance results

 

Recent Developments

 

June 2016 Financing

  

On June 27, 2016, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with a single institutional investor (the “Investor”) providing for the issuance and sale by the Company of: (i) Series E-4 “Greenshoe” Warrants to purchase up to 7,017,544 shares of our common stock, and (ii) Series E-7 Warrants to purchase up to 5,263,158 shares of our common stock (collectively, including the shares underlying the Series E-4 and E-7 Warrants, the “Registered Securities”). Each Series E-4 Warrant has an initial exercise price of $1.01. Each Series E-7 Warrant was pre-paid at a price per share of $0.57 (a 20% discount to the last reported sale price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on June 24, 2016) minus $0.01. This equals a total purchase price of $3,000,000 minus $52,632. The exercise price of each Series E-7 Warrant is $0.01.

 

The Series E-4 Warrants are exercisable, subject to certain limitations, immediately and will expire 90 days after shareholder approval for the Company to possibly issue underlying shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement in excess of 19.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock on June 27, 2016 is obtained and deemed effective. The Series E-7 Warrants are exercisable, subject to certain limitations, immediately and have an infinite term of exercise. As of July 28, 2016, the Investor has received 4,450,000 shares pursuant to partial exercises of the Series E-7 Warrants.

 

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Investor also agreed to purchase (i) Series E-1 Warrants to purchase up to 3,508,772 shares of common stock (at an exercise price of $1.05 per share); (ii) Series E-2 Warrants to purchase up to 1,754,386 shares of common stock (at an exercise price of $1.30 per share); (iii) Series E-5 Warrants to purchase up to 3,508,772 shares of common stock (at an exercise price of $1.05 per share); and (iv) Series E-6 Warrants to purchase up to 1,754,386 shares of common stock (at an exercise price of $1.30) (collectively, the “Unregistered Warrants”).

 

 3 

 

 

Each Unregistered Warrant shall be initially exercisable on the six (6) month and one (1) day anniversary of the issuance date and have a term of exercise equal to seven (7) years from the date on which first exercisable. Subject to limited exceptions, a holder of Unregistered Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its warrants if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise (the holder can, with notice of 61 days, increase this limitation to 9.99%). The Series E-1 and E-2 warrants vest immediately. The Series E-5 and E-6 warrants are unvested warrants which will vest ratably with the exercise of the Series E-4 Greenshoe Warrant. To the extent the Series E-4 Warrant is not exercised before its expiration, any unvested warrants will also terminate.

 

The Company also issued and sold to the Investor a Senior Convertible Debenture Due in June 2021 in the principal amount of $1,000,000 (the “Debenture” and, together with the Unregistered Warrants, the “Unregistered Securities”). The Debenture has a conversion price of $0.57 (a 20% discount to the last reported sale price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on June 24, 2016) for 1,754,386 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Debenture. The Company’s subsidiaries signed a Subsidiary Guarantee in connection with the issuance of the Debenture.

 

A holder of the Debenture will not have the right to convert any portion of the Debenture if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion (the holder can, with notice of 61 days, increase this limitation to 9.99%).

 

The closing of the sale of these securities took place on June 29, 2016.

 

Total proceeds to the Company, before expenses, were $3,947,368 ($4,000,000 minus the $0.01 exercise price of each Series E-7 Warrant shares). The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the transactions were approximately $3,600,000 after deducting the Company’s estimated transaction expenses. The net proceeds received by the Company are being used for general corporate purposes. General corporate purposes may include providing working capital, funding capital expenditures, or paying for acquisitions.

 

The Registered Securities were offered by the Company pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was initially filed with the SEC on November 10, 2015 and declared effective on June 15, 2016 (File No. 333- 207928). On June 29, 2016, we filed a prospectus supplement with the SEC in connection with the sale of the Registered Securities.

 

The Unregistered Securities were issued and sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws.  Accordingly, the Investor may exercise the Unregistered Warrants or convert the Debenture and sell the underlying shares only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the resale of those shares, an exemption under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or another applicable exemption under the Securities Act.  Pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement, dated June 27, 2016, by and between the Company and the Investor (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), the Company has agreed to file one or more registration statements with the SEC covering the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Debenture and upon exercise of the Unregistered Warrants. This prospectus forms a part of the initial registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Debenture and upon exercise of the Unregistered Warrants.

 

There was no placement agent for this transaction.

 

Plasma Arc Flow® System Milestone

 

On July 20, 2016, the Company announced that it had met a benchmark in its agreement (the “Gasifier Agreement”) with Green Arc Supply, LLC (“Green Arc”) to manufacture and sell a $775,000 100kw Plasma-Arc Gasification system (the “System”) to Green Arc.

 

 4 

 

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Gasifier Agreement, the Company originally received payments totaling $392,500 at the signing of the Gasifier Agreement in November of 2015, and was due to receive $191,250 upon 75% construction completion of the System. The Company met this 75% benchmark in early June 2016, ahead of schedule. The balance of the $775,000 is due and payable upon completion of construction of the System. Per the terms of the Gasifier Agreement, payment will be received after training and factory acceptance. After payment, the Company will ship the unit to Green Arc. Payment and shipment are expected to occur in the third quarter of 2016. Revenue will be recognized at time of shipment.

 

MagneGas2® Sales

 

On July 27, 2016, the Company announced that a global auto manufacturing company based in the Midwestern United States has chosen to switch to MagneGas2® as its sole fuel of choice for metal working in one of its top award winning factories.

 

The company chose MagneGas2® to be its exclusive fuel at one of its Midwestern factories and to discontinue using acetylene after several successful demonstrations of the use of the fuel for metal cutting. A local MagneGas distributor has received purchase orders from the auto company for MagneGas2® which will be used for cutting, brazing, and other operations.

The number of shares of common stock outstanding before and after the offering is based on 49,899,534 shares outstanding as of July 28, 2016 and excludes up to 11,802,819 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants (not including the shares issuable upon exercise of the Registered Securities and the Unregistered Securities).

 

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our common stock involves significant risks. You should carefully consider and evaluate all of the information included and incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including the risk factors incorporated herein by reference from “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, which was filed with the SEC on March 23, 2016, as amended on May 16, 2016, and as further updated by our subsequent Exchange Act filings we file with the SEC after the filing of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and that are, in each case, incorporated by reference herein. Any of these risks could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the price of our common stock and the value of your investment in our common stock. In addition, please note the following risk factor:

 

We may need to raise additional funds to finance our operations during the next twelve months, we may not be able to do so when necessary, and/or the terms of any financings may not be advantageous to us.

 

We held cash and cash equivalents of $3.85 million as of June 30, 2016. This amount included the completion, on June 29, 2016, of a financing transaction with one institutional investor that raised gross proceeds totaling $3.95 million. This financing provided for the issuance and sale by the Company of additional “Greenshoe” Warrants to purchase up to 7,017,544 shares of our common stock at $1.01. In addition, the Company has an active shelf in place that can provide additional potential sources of capital. In November 2015, the Company sold its first Plasma-Arc Gasification system for $775,000. We have already received milestone payments totaling $583,750 as a result of this sale and will receive a final payment of $191,250 after the expected delivery of the system by us to the customer later this month. The Company believes that this sale will generate additional equipment sales that will provide additional capital.

 

As our burn rate for operations is approximately $500,000 per month, we believe that the cash to be generated from expected product sales, additional financing and our current holdings of cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet our projected operating requirements during the next twelve months. If these sources do not provide the capital necessary to fund the Company’s operations during the next twelve months, the Company may need to curtail certain aspects of its operations or expansion activities or consider other means of financing. There is no guarantee that any such additional financing would be available to the Company.

 

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, principally in the sections entitled “Risk Factors.” All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this prospectus, including statements regarding future events, our future financial performance, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. We have attempted to identify forward-looking statements by terminology including “anticipates,” “believes,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “should,” or “will” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Although we do not make forward looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks outlined under “Risk Factors” or elsewhere in this prospectus, which may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors include:

 

  · our limited financial resources and our ability to obtain additional financing;

 

  · the development and successful commercial acceptance of our products;

 

 6 

 

 

  · the cost of compliance with government regulations;

 

  · that our technology is unproven on a large-scale industrial basis;

 

  · our dependence on our management team;

 

  · risks of product liability;

 

  · our competition, including from significantly larger alternative fuel companies;

 

  · a slow pace of industry adoption of MagneGas2®; and

 

  · protection of our intellectual property.

 

Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all risk factors, nor can we address the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in this document are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and we assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.

 

You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement, each of which applies only as of the date of this prospectus. Before you invest in our shares, you should be aware that the occurrence of the events described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus could negatively affect our business, operating results, financial condition and stock price. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this prospectus to conform our statements to actual results or changed expectations.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

All proceeds from the resale of the shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus will belong to the selling stockholders identified in this prospectus under “Selling Stockholders.” We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of the shares of our common stock by the selling stockholders.

 

We will receive proceeds from any cash exercise of the Series E-1, Series E-2, Series E-5, and Series E-6 warrants. If all such warrants are fully exercised on a cash basis, we will receive gross cash proceeds of approximately $11,929,826. We expect to use the proceeds from the exercise of such warrants, if any, for general corporate purposes. General corporate purposes may include providing working capital, funding capital expenditures, or paying for acquisitions.  We currently do not have any arrangements or agreements for any acquisitions.  We cannot precisely estimate the allocation of the net proceeds from any exercise of the warrants for cash.  Accordingly, in the event the Warrants are exercised for cash, our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds of such exercises. Pending the use of net proceeds, we intend to invest the net proceeds of any Warrant for cash exercise in certificates of deposit or direct or guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government.  There is no assurance that the Warrants will ever be exercised for cash.

  (1) As of August 1, 2016, Alpha Capital Anstalt beneficially owned (i) 813,158 shares of our common stock underlying the Series E-7 Warrant, (ii) 7,017,544 shares of our common stock underlying the Series E-4 “Greenshoe” Warrants, and (iii) 42,274 shares of common stock. The 12,280,702 shares being offered includes (i) Series E-1 Warrants to purchase up to 3,508,772 shares of common stock (at an exercise price of $1.05 per share); (ii) Series E-2 Warrants to purchase up to 1,754,386 shares of common stock (at an exercise price of $1.30 per share); (iii) Series E-5 Warrants to purchase up to 3,508,772 shares of common stock (at an exercise price of $1.05 per share); (iv) Series E-6 Warrants to purchase up to 1,754,386 shares of common stock (at an exercise price of $1.30); and (v) 1,754,386 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Debenture.

A holder of the Debenture will not have the right to convert any portion of the Debenture if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion (the holder can, with notice of 61 days, increase this limitation to 9.99%). The address for Alpha Capital Anstalt is Lettstrasse 32, FL-9490 Vaduz, Fürstentum Liechtenstein. Konrad Ackermann has voting and investment power over the shares being registered on behalf of Alpha Capital Anstalt.

Represents shares of common stock directly beneficially owned as of August 1, 2016 (none which are being offered hereby). This does not reflect the shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the conversion of the Debenture or exercise of the warrants disclosed in Footnote 1 above

     
  (3) Percentages are calculated based on an aggregate of 62,180,236 shares of common stock outstanding after the offering.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

Each Selling Stockholder (the “Selling Stockholders”) of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the Nasdaq Capital Market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions.  These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices.

 

A Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

 

  · ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

  · block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

  · purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

  · an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

  · privately negotiated transactions;

  

  · settlement of short sales;

 

  · in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;

 

  · through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

 8 

 

 

  · a combination of any such methods of sale; or

 

  · any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

 

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales.  Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.

 

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume.  The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities.  The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales.  In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.  Each Selling Stockholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).

 

The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities.  The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

Because Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder.  In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders have advised us that there is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale securities by the Selling Stockholders.

 

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

 

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution.  In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of securities of the common stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other person.  We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholder and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporate Law (the “DGCL”) allows a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation will not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the directors breached the duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit. Our certificate of incorporation provides for this limitation of liability.

 

Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was, is or is threatened to be made, party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was illegal. A Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or were, a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests, provided that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer, director, employee or agent is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him against the expenses which such officer or directors has actually and reasonably incurred.

 

Section 145 further authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise, against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify him under Section 145. 

 

The indemnification rights set forth above shall not be exclusive of any other right which an indemnified person may have or hereafter acquire under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such person.

  

 12 

 

 

We maintain a general liability insurance policy that covers liabilities of directors and officers of our corporation arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.

 

Item 16. Exhibits.

 

The list of exhibits in the Exhibit Index to this registration statement is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1)    To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

i.       To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

ii.      To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.

 

iii.     To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

 

(2)     That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3)     To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(4)     That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

 

i.       Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

 

ii.      Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which the prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

 13 

 

 

Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date. 

 

(5)   That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

i.       Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

ii.      Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

iii.     The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

 

iv.     Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

(6)   That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial  bona fide  offering thereof.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities ( other  than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

(8)      The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

 

 (i)    For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

 

(ii)    For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
