About RYTHM, Inc.
Overview
We deliver well-being to customers through our portfolio of hemp-derived THC products and iconic licensed brands. Our portfolio of consumer-packaged goods brands includes RYTHM, incredibles, Dogwalkers, Beboe, &Shine, Doctor Solomon’s and Good Green, in addition to our Señorita brand which offers consumers hemp-derived tetrahydrocannabinol (“THC”) beverages that mirror well-known cocktails like a margarita – in four flavors – classic Lime Jalapeño Margarita, Mango Margarita, Paloma and Ranch Water. Known for its clean, fresh taste and commitment to high-quality, natural ingredients, Señorita offers a low-sugar, low-calorie alternative to alcoholic beverages and is available in fifteen U.S. states and Canada including at top retailers such as Total Wine, ABC Fine Wine & Spirits, and Binny’s. Other hemp-derived products, including incredibles and Beboe edible products, are primarily sold online and through direct-to-retail partnerships. In addition to the sale of hemp-derived products, we license our brands to be manufactured and distributed in exchange for a licensing fee.
In addition to hemp-derived products, we have also historically been a leading provider of innovative cultivation and extraction solutions for the cannabis industry (the “Extraction Business”). Prior to our exit of the Extraction Business on March 30, 2025, our comprehensive extraction product line, which includes hydrocarbon, alcohol, solventless, post-processing, and lab equipment, empowered producers to maximize the quantity and quality of extract required for premium concentrates. Additionally, prior to its sale on December 31, 2024, our proprietary micro-environment-controlled Vertical Farming Units (“VFUs”) enabled cultivators to produce high quality products for the cannabis industry (the “Cultivation Business”).
Lines of Business
Acquired Brands and Royalties
On May 20, 2025, we acquired MC Brands, LLC from Green Thumb Industries Inc. (“Green Thumb”), a related party, the assets of which consist primarily of intellectual property rights to the incredibles brand. Concurrent with the MC Brands acquisition, we entered a license agreement with GTI Core, LLC, a subsidiary of Green Thumb, to use certain intellectual property related to the incredibles brand. The incredibles license agreement grants GTI Core, LLC the rights to use certain intellectual property related to the incredibles brand in connection with GTI Core’s existing businesses. The consideration payable by GTI Core for the license rights consists of a monthly license fee, payable in cash, based on sales of product using the licensed intellectual property. Benjamin Kovler, our Chairman and Interim Chief Executive Officer, is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer on Green Thumb, and Armon Vakili, a member of our Board of Directors, is an employee of Green Thumb. Green Thumb, through its subsidiaries, currently holds approximately 35% of our outstanding shares of common stock and beneficially owns 49.99% of our common stock, taking into account beneficial ownership limitations contained in the warrants and convertible notes held by subsidiaries of Green Thumb

On August 27, 2025, we acquired VCP IP Holdings, LLC from Green Thumb, the assets of which consist primarily of intellectual property rights to the RYTHM, Beboe, Dogwalkers, Doctor Solomon’s, &Shine, and Good Green brands. Concurrent with the acquisition, we entered a license agreement with GTI Core, LLC to use certain intellectual property related to the acquired brand. The license agreement grants GTI Core, LLC the rights to use certain intellectual property related to the RYTHM, Beboe, Dogwalkers, Doctor Solomon’s, &Shine, and Good Green brands in connection with GTI Core’s existing businesses. The consideration payable by GTI Core for the license rights consists of a monthly license fee, payable in cash, based on sales of product using the licensed intellectual property.
Hemp-Derived Products
We acquired the Señorita brand of hemp-derived THC beverages in November 2024. Señorita was designed and formulated by world-class winemakers Charles Bieler and Joel Gott. Recognizing a growing generational demand for adult beverage alternatives, Bieler and Gott gave the classic margarita a modern twist—replacing alcohol with hemp-derived to create a delightful adult beverage alternative. Through the use of all-natural, premium ingredients like organic Mexican agave, fresh lime juice and sweet, tangy mango, Señorita quickly gained acclaim, taking home the top spot in The High Times Cannabis Cup just one year after inception. Gott and Bieler continue to collaborate on the brand with Mr. Kovler and the RYTHM team.
Señorita currently offers four award-winning flavors – classic Lime Jalapeño Margarita, Paloma, Mango Margarita, and Ranch Water. Señorita’s hemp-derived beverages are currently available at top retailers including Total Wine, ABC Fine Wine & Spirits, and Binny’s in fifteen U.S. states and Canada. Products are also available for direct-to-consumer purchase where permissible under state law at senoritadrinks.com.
Co-Manufacturing Arrangements
Our finished goods are manufactured by various third-party co-manufacturers situated throughout the United States and Canada, under separate arrangements with each party. Our co-manufacturing arrangements vary in terms and, from time to time, we may enter into manufacturing contracts with agreed upon minimum quantities to ensure continuity of supply of certain products in certain territories. We continue to actively seek alternative and/or additional co-manufacturing facilities with adequate capacity and capability for the production of our various products to minimize transportation costs as well as mitigate the risk of disruption in production.
Our ability to estimate demand for our products is imprecise, particularly with new products, and may be less precise during periods of rapid growth, including in new markets. If we materially underestimate demand for our products and/or are unable to secure sufficient ingredients or raw materials and/or procure adequate co-manufacturing arrangements and/or obtain adequate or timely shipment of our products, we might not be able to satisfy demand on a short-term basis.
Distribution Agreements
During the first half of 2025, we continued to expand distribution of our hemp-derived beverage products in our domestic markets. We have entered into agreements with various distributors providing for the distribution of certain of our hemp-derived beverage products, subject to certain terms and conditions, which may vary depending on the form of the agreement. Such agreements remain in effect for their then-current term as long as our products are being distributed, but are subject to specified termination rights held by each party. Additionally, we are entitled to terminate certain distribution agreements at any time without cause upon payment of a termination fee, which may be material depending on the agreement.

Regulatory Landscape Overview
The regulatory landscape for products infused with hemp-derived delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol and other cannabinoids with impairing or intoxicating effects (collectively “hemp-derived THC”) is a source of material risk for the Company. While the Agricultural Improvement Act of 2018 (the “2018 Farm Bill”) both defined and legalized hemp under federal law, the subsequent use of hemp to make THC consumer products was reportedly not anticipated by legislators. Those products are similar in composition to certain state-legal and federally illegal cannabis consumer products, but are federally legal and thus can be shipped via interstate commerce. Their legal status at the federal level also means that they do not fall under the same state regulatory schemes or have the same heavy tax burdens that state legal cannabis products do. As the industry expanded, lawmakers at the state level have begun to expressly regulate such products, including with age limits and manufacturing standards; however, federal, state, and local lawmakers have also raised concerns about minors’ easy access to some of these products, inadequate testing, and the need for more consistent regulations governing the manufacturing, marketing, testing, sale, and transportation of hemp-derived THC products. As a result, some states have passed laws regulating, restricting or prohibiting hemp-derived THC products. Most recently, the Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act of 2026 (H.R. 5371) (the “2026 Appropriations Act”), enacted on November 12, 2025, includes a provision (section 781) to amend the definition of hemp in the 2018 Farm Bill to effectively eliminate the currently commercialized hemp-derived THC products, including the Company’s products, although the change does not become effective for 365 days from the date of enactment. Efforts are underway to repeal, replace, or delay this amendment, but whether any change will occur is uncertain. All of this creates significant uncertainty for our business of selling hemp-derived THC products.
Competitive Landscape Overview
The U.S. cannabis and cannabis-related industries are, and are expected to continue to be, competitive. A number of other companies engage in, and may in the future engage in, cannabis-related businesses, operate businesses in competition with us and purchase businesses and assets or make investments that we will also seek to purchase or make. We face and expect to continue to face competition from state-licensed medical and adult-use dispensaries.
Large chain stores, manufacturers, retailers, beverage and other consumer products companies that also recognize the potential for financial success through acquisitions and investment in the hemp-derived beverage industry could strategically acquire competitors or invest in creating their own brands. In doing so, these larger competitors could produce and sell competing products at a lower price and establish a larger brand presence. We may not have the personnel, products, marketing and distribution capabilities, and/or financial resources to compete effectively against such larger competitors.
We also face competition from the illicit market and illegal dispensaries and cultivation operations that are unlicensed, not regulated and that are selling cannabis or hemp products. Any inability or unwillingness of law enforcement authorities to enforce existing laws prohibiting the unlicensed production and sale of cannabis or hemp products could result in increased competition for us.
Intellectual Property
We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, copyright, and trade secret, including federal, state and common law rights in the U.S. and other countries, nondisclosure agreements, and other measures to protect our intellectual property. We require our employees, consultants, and advisors to execute confidentiality agreements and to agree to disclose and assign to us all inventions conceived under their respective employment, consultant, or advisor agreement, using our property, or which relate to our business. Despite any measures taken to protect our intellectual property, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Our business is affected by our ability to protect against misappropriation and infringement of our intellectual property, including our trademarks, service marks, patents, domain names, copyrights and other proprietary rights.

Recent Developments
Name Change
Following our acquisition of VCP IP Holdings, LLC and the RYTHM brand, we changed our name from Agrify Corporation to RYTHM, Inc. effective as of September 2, 2025, and changed our ticker symbol on the Nasdaq Capital Market from AGFY to RYM effective as of the market open on that date.
Shared Services Agreements
On May 20, 2025, we entered into an Amended and Restated Shared Services Agreement (the “Services Agreement”) with Vision Management Services, LLC (“VMS”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Green Thumb, a related party. Under the Services Agreement, VMS provides certain administrative, supply chain, operations management, sales and marketing, and technical services to us and our subsidiaries. As consideration for those services, we pay VMS service fees equal to (i) 125% of the costs incurred by VMS in connection with any services provided by non-dedicated personnel, including the applicable portion of salary, bonus, equity compensation cost, health care and other benefits, and (ii) 100% of such costs incurred by VMS in connection with services provided by dedicated personnel and any third-party costs incurred in connection with the services. The service fees are payable in cash or, upon mutual agreement of us and VMS and to the extent permitted under applicable Nasdaq listing rules, in common stock or in pre-funded warrants, with the value per share of common stock or pre-funded warrant being equal to $26.68. The maximum cost for services provided by non-dedicated personnel during the one-year term of the Services Agreement may not exceed $3.0 million unless the parties otherwise agree in writing. The Services Agreement is for a term of one year, is terminable by either party on 90 days’ notice for any or no reason, and will automatically renew for successive one year terms unless terminated by either party at least thirty days prior to the end of the applicable term.
On March 21, 2025, we entered into a Shared Services Agreement (the “CFO Services Agreement”) with VMS, pursuant to which our Chief Financial Officer provides his services. As consideration for those services, we pay VMS a monthly fee based on its direct costs in providing such services, with a maximum of $72,552 per month. The CFO Services Agreement has a term of one year, is terminable by either party on 90 days’ notice for any or no reason, and will automatically renew for successive one year terms unless terminated by either party at least thirty days prior to the end of the applicable term. As a result of the services provided under the Services Agreement and the CFO Services Agreement, we do not have any direct employees.
Convertible Note Issuances
On November 5, 2024, we issued a Secured Convertible Note (the “November 2024 Note”) with an original principal amount of $10.0 million to RSLGH, LLC (“RSLGH”), a subsidiary of Green Thumb, a related party. The November 2024 Note will mature on November 5, 2025 and is convertible into shares of common stock or, at the holder’s election, pre-funded warrants, at a conversion price of $3.158, subject to a 49.99% beneficial ownership limitation and any required approval of stockholders under Nasdaq listing rules.
On May 22, 2025, we issued Secured Convertible Notes with an aggregate original principal amount of $30.0 million (the “May 2025 Notes”) to RSLGH and to certain other accredited investors. The May 2025 Notes will mature on November 22, 2026 and are convertible into shares of common stock or, at the holder’s election, pre-funded warrants, at a conversion price of $23.53, subject to a 49.99% beneficial ownership limitation for RSLGH, a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation for the other holders, and any required approval of stockholders under Nasdaq listing rules.
On August 25, 2025, we issued Secured Convertible Notes with an aggregate original principal amount of $50.0 million (the “August 2025 Notes” and, collectively with the November 2024 Note and the May 2025 Notes, the “Notes”) to RSLGH and to certain other accredited investors. The August 2025 Notes will mature on February 25, 2027 and are convertible into shares of common stock or, at the holder’s election, pre-funded warrants, at a conversion price of $29.475, subject to a 49.99% beneficial ownership limitation for RSLGH, a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation for the other holders, and any required approval of stockholders under Nasdaq listing rules.

Each Note is a secured obligation and ranks senior to all of our indebtedness except for the other Notes. Each Note accrues interest at a 10.0% annualized rate, with interest to be paid on the first calendar day of each September and March while the Note is outstanding, which may be paid in the form of pre-funded warrants or, in the case of the August 2025 Notes and at the election of the holders of a majority of the August 2025 Notes, cash or common stock, subject to any applicable Nasdaq restrictions. The principal amount of each Note will be payable on its applicable maturity date.
The Notes impose certain customary affirmative and negative covenants upon us. If an event of default under a Note occurs, the holder can elect to redeem the Note for cash equal to the then-outstanding principal amount of the Note (or such lesser principal amount accelerated by the Investor), plus accrued and unpaid interest, including default interest, which accrues at a rate per annum equal to 14% from the date of a default or event of default.
Additional Information
For additional information related to our business and operations, please refer to the reports incorporated herein by reference, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as described under the caption “Incorporation of Documents by Reference” on page 33 of this prospectus.
Our Corporate Information
RYTHM, Inc. was incorporated in the state of Nevada on June 6, 2016, originally incorporated as Agrinamics, Inc. (or Agrinamics). On September 16, 2019, Agrinamics amended its articles of incorporation to reflect a name change to Agrify Corporation. On September 2, 2025, Agrify Corporation amended its articles of incorporation to reflect a name change to RYTHM, Inc. Our executive offices are located at 2220 Hicks Road, Suite 210, Rolling Meadows, Illinois 60008. Our telephone number at our executive offices is (855) 420-0020. Our website address is www.rythminc.com. Our website and the information contained in, or accessible through, our website will not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this prospectus and does not constitute part of this prospectus. You should not rely on any such information in making your decision whether to purchase our securities.
Our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, are available free of charge through the investor relations page of our website as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the SEC.
All brand names or trademarks appearing in this prospectus are the property of their respective holders. Use or display by us of other parties’ trademarks, trade dress, or products in this prospectus is not intended to, and does not, imply a relationship with, or endorsements or sponsorship of, us by the trademark or trade dress owners.
Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company
Because the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates was less than $700 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter and our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year prior to such date, we qualify as a “smaller reporting company” as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company if either (i) the market value of our shares held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million or (ii) the market value of our shares held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million and our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year prior to the determination date. As a smaller reporting company, we may provide less public disclosure than larger public companies, including the inclusion of only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations disclosure. While we are a smaller reporting company, we are also not required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as long as we are considered a non-accelerated filer or our annual revenues are less than $100 million. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive as a result of our reliance on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result of any choice we make to reduce disclosure, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and the market price for our common stock may be more volatile.

The Securities We May Offer
We may offer shares of our common stock and preferred stock, various series of debt securities, and/or warrants or rights to purchase any of such securities, either individually or as units in combination, up to a total aggregate offering price of $100,000,000 from time to time in one or more offerings under this prospectus, together with any applicable prospectus supplement and any related free writing prospectus, at prices and on terms to be determined by market conditions at the time of the relevant offering. This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer.

Risks Relating to our Industry
The 2018 Farm Bill, which federally legalized hemp and hemp products, was amended in a way that would severely restrict or prohibit the Company’s hemp-derived THC products.
The 2018 Farm Bill, which is the legal basis for our entry into the hemp-derived THC product market, legally defined hemp as Cannabis Sativa L. containing less than 0.3% delta-9-THC on a dry weight basis, effectively legalizing hemp in the United States. Most recently, the 2026 Appropriations Act), enacted on November 12, 2025, includes a provision (section 781) to amend the definition of hemp in the 2018 Farm Bill to effectively eliminate currently commercialized hemp-derived THC products, including our products, although the change does not become effective for 365 days from the date of enactment. Efforts are underway to repeal, replace, or delay this amendment, but whether any change will occur is uncertain. This creates significant uncertainty for our business of selling hemp-derived THC products. It is unclear, for example, if states that have expressly allowed the commercialization of such products will continue to do so in spite of the changes to federal law. If the 365-day grace period expires without a legislative change, it will have a material adverse effect on us, including our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In that event, the market price of our common stock could decline.
States are passing their own laws regulating, restricting, or prohibiting hemp-derived THC products, creating a difficult regulatory patchwork within which to operate.
State and local authorities have been active over the last few years, implementing their own laws regulating the cultivation, manufacturing, testing, marketing, and sale of both intoxicating and non-intoxicating hemp products. Some states ban these products altogether. Other state laws permit hemp-derived THC products but impose new regulatory frameworks containing licensing and labeling requirements, age gates, amount and potency restrictions, allowable types of products, and restrictions on where the products may be sold. The varied state regulatory framework for hemp products poses risks to manufacturing, marketing, selling, and shipping hemp-derived THC products around the country, whether wholesale or direct to consumers via online or brick-and-mortar retail locations. Additionally, hemp legislation is pending at the state level around the country, creating additional risk to the sale and transport of products already produced under existing laws. Unforeseen regulatory obstacles or compliance costs related to state laws may hinder our ability to successfully compete in some markets for such products. Further, states in which we currently sell our hemp-derived THC products could decide in the future to ban these products altogether, particularly given the 2026 Appropriations Act. If these regulatory changes occur, the revenue streams we expect to receive from our businesses and assets would be at risk and, as a result, such changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Hemp-derived THC products are not permitted under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
The Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has taken the position that ingestible products over which it has jurisdiction, including foods, beverages, and dietary supplements, that contain cannabinoids such as THC, including hemp-derived delta-9-THC, are not permitted under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (“FDCA”). The FDA has not evaluated THC as a food ingredient, and therefore does not consider it to be GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) for use in foods, including beverages. The FDA has also found that because THC is in certain drugs approved by the FDA, it cannot be used in foods/beverages or dietary supplements. The FDA has articulated its intention to focus enforcement on products claiming to prevent, diagnose, mitigate, treat, or cure diseases, and/or manufacturers who target products toward children. The FDA has issued warnings about products that resemble candy or other items appealing to children, emphasizing that such products could pose a risk of unintentional ingestion and potential harm due to the presence of cannabinoids. Thus far, such enforcement has been limited to sending warning letters to a relatively small number of companies. The FDA may decide in the future to increase enforcement activities, regardless of whether a company has made health claims related to its products or markets to children, which could impact the Company’s offering of hemp-derived THC beverages and materially impact operations and revenue.
The FDA could issue new regulations that prohibit or strictly limit the sale of hemp-derived THC products.
The FDA has previously declined to issue regulations for the manufacture and sale of hemp-derived THC products. For example, in 2023, the FDA denied three citizen petitions asking the FDA to conduct rulemaking to allow the marketing of cannabidiol (“CBD”), another hemp-derived cannabinoid, as dietary supplements. In conjunction with these denials, the FDA has publicly stated that a new regulatory pathway should be created by Congress to regulate CBD and other cannabinoid products. Legislation passed on November 12, 2025 directs the FDA to create and maintain lists of allowable and prohibited cannabinoids and other regulations further defining what items will qualify as a container for purposes of measuring cannabinoid content. The FDA could also decide to further regulate hemp products based on this new directive. New FDA regulations could materially and negatively impact our operations and revenue. New FDA regulations could also require us to make financial investments in additional compliance mechanisms which could impact our profitability and the market price for our common stock.
Other federal agencies may take enforcement actions against companies selling hemp-derived THC products.
The Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and FDA frequently collaborate on enforcement where their jurisdictions overlap, particularly in regulating the advertising, labeling, and promotion of food, cosmetics, medical devices, and over-the-counter drugs. In the CBD market, the FTC has joined the FDA in issuing warning letters to companies who lacked competent and reliable scientific evidence supporting their advertisements, thereby violating the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 41 et seq. The FTC has also independently issued warning letters to CBD companies for making exaggerated or misleading claims without sufficient scientific backing. While FTC enforcement actions related to CBD were historically limited to warnings, in December 2020, the agency initiated its first formal enforcement action against six CBD companies for allegedly making unsupported health claims, leading to settlement agreements that required those companies to cease such claims and pay monetary judgments. In 2023 and 2024, the FTC sent cease and desist letters to companies marketing hemp-derived THC products that it determined appealed to children. Although we do not intend to make any unsubstantiated claims regarding its products, the FTC may disagree with our assessment of our claims. The regulatory landscape and potential for future FTC enforcement actions could pose an ongoing risk to our offering of hemp-derived THC products, especially if our products are targeted by the FTC, or the FTC and FDA together, in the future for any reason.

Hemp-derived THC products are federally illegal if they exceed 0.3% delta-9-THC on a dry weight basis.
Hemp-derived THC products which exceed a delta-9-THC concentration of 0.3% on a dry weight basis are federally illegal under the Controlled Substances Act (the “CSA”). The CSA classifies cannabis as an illegal Schedule I drug, meaning it is considered to have a high potential for abuse and no accepted medical use.
Any failure by us or our partners to keep the delta-9-THC in our hemp-derived THC products below 0.3% on a dry weight basis, either in the manufacturing process or in the final product, could subject us to action by regulatory authorities and/or to lawsuits by consumers. In addition, the approval of medical and recreational marijuana by many states has created a situation in which it may be difficult or impossible for regulators and courts to determine whether the delta-9-THC levels reflected in consumers’ blood tests are the result of hemp-derived THC products or marijuana products. This may result in regulatory actions or lawsuits. Certain hemp-derived THC products may, over time, gradually increase their delta-9-THC or total THC concentration, and this may ultimately cause such products to exceed the applicable concentration level, making such products illegal in certain jurisdictions. If any of these situations occur, we may be subject to regulatory action or lawsuits that could have a material adverse effect on us.
We are subject to regulations that could impact its ability to sell our product internationally.
We currently sell certain of our products in Canada and may conduct sales in other international markets in the future. Doing so would subject us to the laws, regulations, and international treaties of the countries where we operate or engage in trade. Failure to adhere to existing or evolving regulations in any jurisdiction could materially impact our business. There is also a risk that authorities in these jurisdictions may determine that we were or are not in compliance with local laws. If our past or present activities are found to violate such laws or regulations, we could face enforcement actions, including civil or criminal penalties, fines, damages, operational restrictions or restructuring, asset seizures, and the denial of regulatory approvals.
Third parties with whom we do business may perceive themselves as being exposed to reputational risk because of their relationship with us due to our hemp- and limited cannabis-related licensing activities and may, as a result, refuse to do business with us.
The third parties with whom we do business may perceive that they are exposed to reputational risk because of our hemp- or limited cannabis-related business activities. Any third-party service provider could suspend or withdraw its services if it perceives that the potential risks exceed the potential benefits of providing such services to us. Specifically, while we have banking relationships and believe that the services we rely on can be procured from other institutions, we may, in the future, have difficulty maintaining existing or securing new bank accounts or clearing services. Our failure to establish or maintain business relationships could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We face competition from the illicit market as well as larger competitors and licensed medical and adult-use cannabis dispensaries.
The U.S. cannabis and hemp industries are, and are expected to continue to be, competitive. A number of other companies engage in, and may in the future engage in, cannabis or hemp-related businesses, operate businesses in competition with us, and purchase businesses and assets or make investments that we will also seek to purchase or make. We face and expect to continue to face competition from state-licensed medical and adult-use dispensaries as well as the illicit market.
Large chain stores, manufacturers, retailers, beverage, and other consumer products companies that also recognize the potential for financial success through acquisitions and investment in the hemp-derived THC industry could strategically acquire competitors or invest in creating their own brands. In doing so, these larger competitors could produce and sell competing products at a lower price and establish a larger brand presence than we have. We may not have the personnel, products, marketing, and distribution capabilities, and/or financial resources to compete effectively against such larger competitors.
We also face competition from the illicit market and illegal dispensaries and cultivation operations that are unlicensed, not regulated and that are selling cannabis or hemp products. Any inability or unwillingness of law enforcement authorities to enforce existing laws prohibiting the unlicensed production and sale of cannabis or hemp products could result in increased competition for us. Additionally, illicit products may be unsafe, and negative press caused by such products could impact our products with consumers who may not distinguish between responsible suppliers like the Company and illicit operators. Any or all these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Inconsistent public opinion and perception of the cannabis and hemp industries may hinder market growth and state regulation, which would adversely impact our growth plans and current operations and result in an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Public opinion and support for cannabis and hemp-derived THC products has traditionally been inconsistent and varies from state to state. While public opinion and support has historically been increasing in the U.S. for legalizing cannabis and for continued access to hemp-derived THC products, it remains a controversial issue subject to differing opinions surrounding the level of legalization. Inconsistent public opinion and perception of cannabis and hemp hinders growth of the cannabis and hemp industries, which could have a material adverse effect on our business plans, financial condition, and results of operations.
Consumer perception of our products may be significantly influenced by scientific research or findings, regulatory investigations, litigation, media attention, and other publicity regarding the consumption of cannabis and hemp-derived THC products. There can be no assurance that future scientific research, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention, or other research findings or publicity will be favorable to the cannabis or hemp markets or any particular product, or consistent with earlier publicity. Future research reports, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention, or other publicity that is perceived as less favorable than, or questions earlier research reports, findings, or publicity, could have a material adverse effect on the demand for our products. Our dependence upon consumer perceptions means that such adverse reports, whether or not accurate or with merit, could ultimately have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows. Further, adverse publicity reports or other media attention regarding the safety, efficacy, and quality of cannabis or hemp-derived THC products in general, or our products specifically, or associating the consumption of cannabis or hemp-derived THC products with illness or other negative effects or events, could have such a material adverse effect. A failure or alleged failure of quality control processes and procedures could result in negative consumer perception of our products or legal claims against us. Adverse publicity reports or other media attention could arise even if the adverse effects associated with such products resulted from consumers’ failure to consume such products appropriately or as directed.
Hemp-derived THC products may be shown to have negative health and/or safety impacts upon consumers.
The health and safety impacts of hemp-derived THC products have not yet been established via traditional scientific and/or clinical studies. The FDA appears to believe that certain hemp-derived THC products may have significant adverse health impacts upon human beings, especially in regard to potential liver toxicity or liver damage. If the FDA, scientific research and/or clinical studies ultimately demonstrate negative health and/or safety impacts of hemp-derived THC products upon consumers, then our business and the trading price of our Common Stock may be materially adversely affected.
We face exposure to fraudulent or illegal activity, and our reputation may be negatively impacted by improper conduct by our business partners, employees, or agents.
We face exposure to the risk that employees, independent contractors or consultants may engage in fraudulent or other illegal activities. Misconduct by these parties could be intentional, reckless and/or negligent conduct. There may be disclosure of unauthorized activities that violate government regulations, manufacturing standards, health care laws, abuse laws, and other financial reporting laws. Further, it may not always be possible for us to identify and deter misconduct by our employees and other third parties, and the precautions taken by us to detect and prevent these activities may not always be effective. As a result, we could face potential penalties and litigation.
Furthermore, we cannot provide assurance that our internal controls and compliance systems will protect us from acts committed by our employees, agents, or business partners, including Green Thumb, in violation of U.S. federal or state or local laws. Any improper acts or allegations could damage our reputation and subject us to civil or criminal investigations and related shareholder lawsuits, could lead to substantial civil and criminal monetary and non-monetary penalties, and could cause us to incur significant legal and investigatory fees.
10
We face risks due to industry immaturity or limited comparable, competitive, or established industry best practices.
As a relatively new industry, there are relatively few operators in the hemp-derived beverage industry whose business models we can follow or build upon. Similarly, there is no or limited information about comparable companies available for potential investors to review in making a decision about whether to invest in us.
Shareholders and investors should consider, among other factors, our prospects for success in light of the risks and uncertainties encountered by companies, like us, that are in their early stages. For example, unanticipated expenses and problems or technical difficulties may occur, which may result in material delays in the operation of our business. We may fail to successfully address these risks and uncertainties or successfully implement our operating strategies. If we fail to do so, it could materially harm our business to the point of having to cease operations and could impair the value of our common stock to the extent that investors may lose their entire investment.
The cannabis and hemp industries could face strong opposition from other industries.
We believe that established businesses in other industries may have a strong economic interest in opposing the development of the cannabis and hemp industries. Cannabis and hemp may be seen by companies in other industries as an attractive alternative to their products, such as alcohol, and as an alternative to various commercial pharmaceuticals. Many industries that could view the emerging cannabis and hemp industries as economic threats are well established, with vast economic and federal and state lobbying resources. It is reported that companies within these industries may have played a role in the recent federal legislation to reverse the 2018 Farm Bill’s legalization of certain hemp products, and it is possible these industries play similar roles in anti-cannabis efforts. Any inroads these companies make in halting or impeding legislative initiatives that would be beneficial to the cannabis and hemp industries could have a detrimental impact on some of our customers and, in turn, on our operations.
Our business depends in part on client licensing.
Our business is partly dependent on certain of our customers obtaining various licenses from various municipalities and state licensing agencies. There can be no assurance that any or all licenses necessary for our customers to operate their businesses will be obtained, retained, or renewed. If a licensing body were to determine that a customer of ours had violated applicable rules and regulations, there is a risk the license granted to that customer could be revoked, which could adversely affect our revenue streams from such clients. There can be no assurance that our existing customers will be able to retain their licenses going forward, or that we would be able to acquire new customers to sell our products in those markets.
We face risks related to our insurance coverage and uninsurable risks.
Our business is subject to a number of risks and hazards generally, including adverse environmental conditions, accidents, labor disputes, and changes in the regulatory environment. Such occurrences could result in damage to assets, personal injury or death, environmental damage, delays in operations, monetary losses, and possible legal liability.
Although we intend to continue to maintain insurance to protect against certain risks in such amounts as we consider to be reasonable, our insurance will not cover all the potential risks associated with our operations. We may also be unable to maintain insurance to cover these risks at economically feasible premiums, particularly given changes to federal law under the 2026 Appropriations Act. Insurance coverage may not continue to be available or may not be adequate to cover any resulting liability. Moreover, insurance against certain hazards encountered in our operations may not be generally available on acceptable terms. We might also become subject to liability for pollution or other hazards which we may not be insured against or which we may elect not to insure against because of premium costs or other reasons. Losses from these events may cause us to incur significant costs that could have a material adverse effect upon our financial performance and results of operations.
We participate in an evolving industry.
The hemp and cannabis industries are still new industries, and many aspects of these industries’ development and evolution cannot be accurately predicted. While we have attempted to identify many risks specific to the hemp and cannabis industries, you should carefully consider that there are other risks that cannot be foreseen or are not described in this report, which could materially and adversely affect our business and financial performance. We expect that the hemp and cannabis markets and our business will continue to evolve in ways that are difficult to predict. Our long-term success may depend on our ability to successfully adjust our strategy to meet the changing market dynamics. If we are unable to successfully adapt to changes in the hemp and cannabis industries, our operations could be adversely affected.

SECURITIES WE MAY OFFER
This prospectus contains summary descriptions of the securities we may offer from time to time. These summary descriptions are not meant to be complete descriptions of each security. The particular terms of any security will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we sell securities described herein, we will provide prospective investors with a supplement to this prospectus that will contain specific information about the terms of that offering, including the specific amounts, prices and terms of the securities offered.
We may sell the securities to or through underwriters, dealers or agents, directly to purchasers or through a combination of any of these methods of sale or as otherwise set forth below under “Plan of Distribution.” We, as well as any agents acting on our behalf, reserve the sole right to accept and to reject in whole or in part any proposed purchase of securities. Any prospectus supplement will set forth the names of any underwriters, dealers, agents or other entities involved in the sale of securities described in that prospectus supplement and any applicable fee, commission or discount arrangements with them.
The following description of our common stock and preferred stock, together with the additional information we include in any applicable prospectus supplements, summarizes the material terms and provisions of the common stock and preferred stock that we may offer under this prospectus. The following description of our capital stock does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, our certificate of incorporation, as amended, and amended and restated bylaws, which are exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and by applicable law. The terms of our common stock and preferred stock may also be affected by Nevada law.
Authorized Capital Stock
Our authorized capital stock consists of 35,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 3,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. The only equity securities currently outstanding are shares of common stock. As of December 12, 2025, there were 2,149,128 shares of common stock outstanding, warrants outstanding to purchase 10,892,115 shares of our common stock (including 10,852,037 pre-funded warrants), 75 shares of common stock subject to outstanding stock options, 126,750 shares of common stock subject to unvested restricted stock units, and 3,382,451 shares of common stock underlying convertible notes, account for interest through maturity.
Common Stock
Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws do not provide for cumulative voting rights.
Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding preferred stock, the holders of our outstanding shares of common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our Board out of legally available funds. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities, subject to the satisfaction of any liquidation preference granted to the holders of any outstanding shares of preferred stock.
Holders of our common stock have no preemptive, conversion or subscription rights, and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock. The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of our preferred stock that are outstanding or that we may designate and issue in the future.
14
Listing
Our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “RYM.” On December 11, 2025, the closing price for our common stock, as reported on The Nasdaq Capital Market was $16.11 per share.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
The transfer agent for our Common Stock is Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc., 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717.
Undesignated Preferred Stock
Our Board is authorized to issue up to 3,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series without shareholder approval. Our Board may determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences, of each series of preferred stock.
The purpose of authorizing our Board to issue preferred stock in one or more series and determine the number of shares in the series and its rights and preferences is to eliminate delays associated with a shareholder vote on specific issuances. Examples of rights and preferences that the Board may fix are:
| ● | dividend rights; |
| ● | dividend rates; |
| ● | conversion rights; |
| ● | voting rights; |
| ● | terms of redemption; and |
| ● | liquidation preferences. |
The existence of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock may enable our Board to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise. For example, if in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, our Board were to determine that a takeover proposal is not in the best interests of us or our stockholders, our Board could cause shares of preferred stock to be issued without stockholder approval in one or more private offerings or other transactions that might dilute the voting or other rights of the proposed acquirer, stockholder or stockholder group. The rights of holders of our common stock described above, will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of any preferred stock that we may designate and issue in the future. The issuance of shares of preferred stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of shares of common stock. The issuance may also adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of these holders and may have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of us.
We will incorporate by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement, which includes this prospectus, the form of any certificate of designations that describes the terms of the series of preferred stock we are offering. This description and the applicable prospectus supplement will include:
| ● | the title and stated value; |
| ● | the number of shares authorized; |
| ● | the liquidation preference per share; |
| ● | the purchase price; |
| ● | the dividend rate, period and payment date, and method of calculation for dividends; |
| ● | whether dividends will be cumulative or non-cumulative and, if cumulative, the date from which dividends will accumulate; |
| ● | the procedures for any auction and remarketing, if any; |
15
| ● | the provisions for a sinking fund, if any; |
| ● | the provisions for redemption or repurchase, if applicable, and any restrictions on our ability to exercise those redemption and repurchase rights; |
| ● | any listing of the preferred stock on any securities exchange or market; |
| ● | whether the preferred stock will be convertible into our common stock, and, if applicable, the conversion price, or how it will be calculated, and the conversion period; |
| ● | whether the preferred stock will be exchangeable into debt securities, and, if applicable, the exchange price, or how it will be calculated, and the exchange period; |
| ● | voting rights, if any, of the preferred stock; |
| ● | preemptive rights, if any; |
| ● | restrictions on transfer, sale or other assignment, if any; |
| ● | whether interests in the preferred stock will be represented by depositary shares; |
| ● | a discussion of any material United States federal income tax considerations applicable to the preferred stock; |
| ● | the relative ranking and preferences of the preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs; |
| ● | any limitations on issuance of any class or series of preferred stock ranking senior to or on a parity with the series of preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs; and |
| ● | any other specific terms, preferences, rights or limitations of, or restrictions on, the preferred stock. |
When we issue shares of preferred stock under this prospectus, the shares will fully be paid and nonassessable and will not have, or be subject to, any preemptive or similar rights.

Our articles of incorporation and bylaws contain certain provisions that may have anti-takeover effects, making it more difficult for or preventing a third party from acquiring control of our company or changing our Board and management. The holders of our Common Stock do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of our directors, which makes it more difficult for minority stockholders to be represented on the Board. Our articles of incorporation allow our Board to issue additional shares of our Common Stock and new series of preferred stock without further approval of our stockholders. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of our Company by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger, or otherwise.

Anti-takeover Effects of Nevada Law
Business Combinations
The “business combination” provisions of Sections 78.411 to 78.444, inclusive, of the Nevada Revised Statutes, or NRS, generally prohibit a Nevada corporation with at least 200 stockholders of record, a “resident domestic corporation,” from engaging in various “combination” transactions with an “interested stockholder” unless certain conditions are met or the corporation has elected in its articles of incorporation to not be subject to these provisions. We have not elected to opt out of these provisions and if we meet the definition of resident domestic corporation, now or in the future, our company will be subject to these provisions.
A “combination” is generally defined to include (a) a merger or consolidation of the resident domestic corporation or any subsidiary of the resident domestic corporation with the interested stockholder or affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder; (b) any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer, or other disposition, in one transaction or a series of transactions, by the resident domestic corporation or any subsidiary of the resident domestic corporation to or with the interested stockholder or affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder having: (i) an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of the assets of the resident domestic corporation, (ii) an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of all outstanding shares of the resident domestic corporation, or (iii) 10% or more of the earning power or net income of the resident domestic corporation; (c) the issuance or transfer in one transaction or series of transactions of shares of the resident domestic corporation or any subsidiary of the resident domestic corporation having an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the resident domestic corporation to the interested stockholder or affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder; and (d) certain other transactions with an interested stockholder or affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder.
An “interested stockholder” is generally defined as a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns (or within two years, did own) 10% or more of a corporation’s voting stock. An “affiliate” of the interested stockholder is any person that directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries is controlled by or is under common control with the interested stockholder. An “associate” of an interested stockholder is any (a) corporation or organization of which the interested stockholder is an officer or partner or is directly or indirectly the beneficial owner of 10% or more of any class of voting shares of such corporation or organization; (b) trust or other estate in which the interested stockholder has a substantial beneficial interest or as to which the interested stockholder serves as trustee or in a similar fiduciary capacity; or (c) relative or spouse of the interested stockholder, or any relative of the spouse of the interested stockholder, who has the same home as the interested stockholder.
If applicable, the prohibition is for a period of two years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the combination meets all of the requirements of the resident domestic corporation’s articles of incorporation and the combination or transaction by which the person first became an interested stockholder is approved by the Board prior to the date the interested stockholder obtained such status; or the combination is approved by the Board and thereafter is approved at a meeting of the stockholders by the affirmative vote of stockholders representing at least 60% of the outstanding voting power held by disinterested stockholders. The prohibition extends beyond the expiration of the two-year period, unless the combination meets all of the requirements of the resident domestic corporation’s articles of incorporation and (a) the combination or transaction by which the person first became an interested stockholder was approved by the Board before the person became an interested stockholder; (b) the combination is approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power held by disinterested stockholders at a meeting called for that purpose no earlier than two years after the date the person first became an interested stockholder; or (c) if the consideration to be paid to all stockholders other than the interested stockholder is, generally, at least equal to the highest of: (i) the highest price per share paid by the interested stockholder within the three years immediately preceding the date of the announcement of the combination or in the transaction in which it became an interested stockholder, whichever is higher, plus compounded interest and less dividends paid, (ii) the market value per share of common shares on the date of announcement of the combination and the date the interested stockholder acquired the shares, whichever is higher, plus compounded interest and less dividends paid, or (iii) for holders of preferred stock, the highest liquidation value of the preferred stock, plus accrued dividends, if not included in the liquidation value. With respect to (i) and (ii) above, the interest is compounded at the rate for one-year United States Treasury obligations from time to time in effect.
17
The business combination provisions do not apply to a person after the expiration of four years after the person first became an interested stockholder.
Applicability of the Nevada business combination statute would discourage parties interested in taking control of our company if they cannot obtain the approval of our Board. These provisions could prohibit or delay a merger or other takeover or change in control attempt and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire our company even though such a transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their stock at a price above the prevailing market price.
Control Share Acquisitions
The “control share” provisions of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793, inclusive, of the NRS, apply to “issuing corporations” that are Nevada corporations with at least 200 or more stockholders of record, at least 100 of whom have had addresses in Nevada appearing on the stock ledger of the corporation at all times during the 90 days immediately preceding the determination date, and that conduct business directly or indirectly in Nevada, unless the corporation has elected to not be subject to these provisions.
The control share statute prohibits an acquirer of shares of an issuing corporation, under certain circumstances, from voting its shares of a corporation’s stock after crossing certain ownership threshold percentages, unless the acquirer obtains approval of the target corporation’s disinterested stockholders. The statute specifies three thresholds: (a) one-fifth or more but less than one-third, (b) one-third but less than a majority, and (c) a majority or more, of the outstanding voting power. Generally, once a person acquires shares in excess of any of the thresholds, those shares and any additional shares acquired within 90 days thereof become “control shares” and such control shares are deprived of the right to vote until disinterested stockholders restore the right. These provisions also provide that if control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person has acquired a majority or more of all voting power, all other stockholders who do not vote in favor of authorizing voting rights to the control shares are entitled to demand payment for the fair value of their shares in accordance with statutory procedures established for dissenters’ rights.
A corporation may elect to not be governed by, or “opt out” of, the control shares provisions by making an election in its articles of incorporation or bylaws, provided that the opt-out election must be in place on the 10 day following the date an acquiring person has acquired a controlling interest, that is, crossing any of the three thresholds described above. We have not opted out of these provisions and will be subject to the control share provisions of the NRS if we meet the definition of an issuing corporation upon an acquiring person acquiring a controlling interest unless we later opt out of these provisions and the opt out is in effect on the 10 day following such occurrence.
The effect of the Nevada control share statute is that the acquiring person, and those acting in association with the acquiring person, will obtain only such voting rights in the control shares as are conferred by a resolution of the stockholders at an annual or special meeting. The Nevada control share law, if applicable, could have the effect of discouraging takeovers of our company.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES
We may offer debt securities which may be senior or subordinated. We refer to senior debt securities and subordinated debt securities collectively as debt securities. Each series of debt securities may have different terms. The following description summarizes the general terms and provisions of the debt securities. We will describe the specific terms of the debt securities and the extent, if any, to which the general provisions summarized below apply to any series of debt securities in the prospectus supplement relating to the series and any applicable free writing prospectus that we authorize to be delivered.
We may issue senior debt securities from time to time, in one or more series under a senior indenture to be entered into between us and a senior trustee to be named in a prospectus supplement, which we refer to as the senior trustee. We may issue subordinated debt securities from time to time, in one or more series, under a subordinated indenture to be entered into between us and a subordinated trustee to be named in a prospectus supplement, which we refer to as the subordinated trustee. The forms of senior indenture and subordinated indenture are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Together, the senior indenture and the subordinated indenture are referred to as the indentures and, together, the senior trustee and the subordinated trustee are referred to as the trustees. This prospectus briefly outlines some of the provisions of the indentures. The following summary of the material provisions of the indentures is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the indentures, including definitions of certain terms used in the indentures. Wherever we refer to particular sections or defined terms of the indentures, those sections or defined terms are incorporated by reference in this prospectus or the applicable prospectus supplement. You should review the indentures that are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part for additional information. As used in this prospectus, the term “debt securities” includes the debt securities being offered by this prospectus and all other debt securities issued by us under the indentures.
General
The indentures:
| ● | do not limit the amount of debt securities that we may issue; |
| ● | allow us to issue debt securities in one or more series; |
| ● | do not require us to issue all of the debt securities of a series at the same time; and |
| ● | allow us to reopen a series to issue additional debt securities without the consent of the holders of the debt securities of such series. |
Unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, the senior debt securities will be unsubordinated obligations and will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. Payments on the subordinated debt securities will be subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of our senior indebtedness, as described under “—Subordination” and in the applicable prospectus supplement.
Each indenture provides that we may, but need not, designate more than one trustee under an indenture. Any trustee under an indenture may resign or be removed and a successor trustee may be appointed to act with respect to the series of debt securities administered by the resigning or removed trustee. If two or more persons are acting as trustee with respect to different series of debt securities, each trustee shall be a trustee of a trust under the applicable indenture separate and apart from the trust administered by any other trustee. Except as otherwise indicated in this prospectus, any action described in this prospectus to be taken by each trustee may be taken by each trustee with respect to, and only with respect to, the one or more series of debt securities for which it is trustee under the applicable indenture.
The prospectus supplement for each offering will provide the following terms, where applicable:
| ● | the title of the debt securities and whether they are senior or subordinated; |
| ● | any limit upon the aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of that series; |
| ● | the date or dates on which the principal of the debt securities of the series is payable; |
| ● | the price at which the debt securities will be issued, expressed as a percentage of the principal and, if other than the principal amount thereof, the portion of the principal amount thereof payable upon declaration of acceleration of the maturity thereof or, if applicable, the portion of the principal amount of such debt securities that is convertible into another security of ours or the method by which any such portion shall be determined; |
| ● | the rate or rates at which the debt securities of the series shall bear interest or the manner of calculation of such rate or rates, if any; |
| ● | the date or dates from which interest will accrue, the interest payment dates on which such interest will be payable or the manner of determination of such interest payment dates, the place(s) of payment, and the record date for the determination of holders to whom interest is payable on any such interest payment dates or the manner of determination of such record dates; |
| ● | the right, if any, to extend the interest payment periods and the duration of such extension; |
| ● | the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which and the terms and conditions upon which debt securities of the series may be redeemed, converted or exchanged, in whole or in part; |
19
| ● | our obligation, if any, to redeem or purchase debt securities of the series pursuant to any sinking fund, mandatory redemption, or analogous provisions (including payments made in cash in satisfaction of future sinking fund obligations) or at the option of a holder thereof and the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which, and the terms and conditions upon which, debt securities of the series shall be redeemed or purchased, in whole or in part, pursuant to such obligation; |
| ● | the form of the debt securities of the series including the form of the Certificate of Authentication for such series; |
| ● | if other than minimum denominations of one thousand U.S. dollars ($1,000) or any integral multiple of $1,000 thereof, the denominations in which the debt securities of the series shall be issuable; |
| ● | whether the debt securities of the series shall be issued in whole or in part in the form of a global debt security or global debt securities; the terms and conditions, if any, upon which such global debt security or global debt securities may be exchanged in whole or in part for other individual debt securities; and the depositary for such global debt security or global debt securities; |
| ● | whether the debt securities will be convertible into or exchangeable for common stock or other securities of ours or any other Person and, if so, the terms and conditions upon which such debt securities will be so convertible or exchangeable, including the conversion or exchange price, as applicable, or how it will be calculated and may be adjusted, any mandatory or optional (at our option or the holders’ option) conversion or exchange features, and the applicable conversion or exchange period; |
| ● | any additional or alternative events of default to those set forth in the indenture; |
| ● | any additional or alternative covenants to those set forth in the indenture; |
| ● | the currency or currencies including composite currencies, in which payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such debt securities shall be payable (if other than the currency of the United States of America), which unless otherwise specified shall be the currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public or private debts; |
| ● | if the principal of (and premium, if any), or interest, if any, on such debt securities is to be payable, at our election or at the election of any holder thereof, in a coin or currency other than that in which such debt securities are stated to be payable, then the period or periods within which, and the terms and conditions upon which, such election may be made; |
| ● | whether interest will be payable in cash or additional debt securities at our or the holders’ option and the terms and conditions upon which the election may be made; |
| ● | the terms and conditions, if any, upon which we will pay amounts in addition to the stated interest, premium, if any and principal amounts of the debt securities of the series to any holder that is not a “United States person” for federal tax purposes; |
| ● | additional or alternative provisions, if any, related to defeasance and discharge of the offered debt securities than those set forth in the indenture; |
| ● | the applicability of any guarantees; |
| ● | any restrictions on transfer, sale or assignment of the debt securities of the series; and |
| ● | any other terms of the debt securities (which may supplement, modify or delete any provision of the indenture insofar as it applies to such series). |
20
We may issue debt securities that provide for less than the entire principal amount thereof to be payable upon declaration of acceleration of the maturity of the debt securities. We refer to any such debt securities throughout this prospectus as “original issue discount securities.”
We will provide you with more information in the applicable prospectus supplement regarding any deletions, modifications, or additions to the events of default or covenants that are described below, including any addition of a covenant or other provision providing event risk or similar protection.
Payment
Unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, the principal of, and any premium or make-whole amount, and interest on, any series of the debt securities will be payable by mailing a check to the address of the person entitled to it as it appears in the applicable register for the debt securities or by wire transfer of funds to that person at an account maintained within the United States.
All monies that we pay to a paying agent or a trustee for the payment of the principal of, and any premium, or interest on, any debt security will be repaid to us if unclaimed at the end of two years after the obligation underlying payment becomes due and payable. After funds have been returned to us, the holder of the debt security may look only to us for payment, without payment of interest for the period which we hold the funds.
Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets
The indentures provide that we may, without the consent of the holders of any outstanding debt securities, (i) consolidate with, (ii) sell, lease or convey all or substantially all of our assets to, or (iii) merge with or into, any other entity provided that:
| ● | either we are the continuing entity, or the successor entity, if other than us, assumes the obligations (a) to pay the principal of, and any premium, and interest on, all of the debt securities and (b) to duly perform and observe all of the covenants and conditions contained in the applicable indenture; and in the event the debt securities are convertible into or exchangeable for common stock or other securities of ours, such successor entity will, by such supplemental indenture, make provision so that the holders of debt securities of that series shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion or exchange of such debt securities the number of securities or property to which a holder of the number of common stock or other securities of ours deliverable upon conversion or exchange of those debt securities would have been entitled had such conversion or exchange occurred immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition; and |
| ● | an officers’ certificate and legal opinion covering such conditions are delivered to each applicable trustee. |
Events of Default, Notice and Waiver
Unless the applicable prospectus supplement states otherwise, when we refer to “events of default” as defined in the indentures with respect to any series of debt securities, we mean:
| ● | default in the payment of any installment of interest on any debt security of such series continuing for 90 days unless such date has been extended or deferred; |
| ● | default in the payment of principal of, or any premium on, any debt security of such series when due and payable unless such date has been extended or deferred; |
| ● | default in the performance or breach of any covenant or warranty in the debt securities or in the indenture by us continuing for 90 days after written notice described below; |
| ● | bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, or court appointment of a receiver, liquidator or trustee of us; and |
| ● | any other event of default provided with respect to a particular series of debt securities. |
21
If an event of default (other than an event of default described in the fourth bullet point above) occurs and is continuing with respect to debt securities of any series outstanding, then the applicable trustee or the holders of 25% or more in principal amount of the debt securities of that series will have the right to declare the principal amount of, and accrued interest on, all the debt securities of that series to be due and payable. If an event of default described in the fourth bullet point above occurs, the principal amount of, and accrued interest on, all the debt securities of that series will automatically become and will be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or the holders of the debt securities. However, at any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the applicable trustee, the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of outstanding debt securities of such series or of all debt securities then outstanding under the applicable indenture may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:
| ● | we have deposited with the applicable trustee all required payments of the principal, any premium, interest and, to the extent permitted by law, interest on overdue installment of interest, plus applicable fees, expenses, disbursements and advances of the applicable trustee; and |
| ● | all events of default, other than the non-payment of accelerated principal, or a specified portion thereof, and any premium, have been cured or waived. |
The indentures provide that holders of debt securities of any series may not institute any proceedings, judicial or otherwise, with respect to such indenture or for any remedy under the indenture, unless the trustee fails to act for a period of 90 days after the trustee has received a written request to institute proceedings in respect of an event of default from the holders of 25% or more in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series, as well as an offer of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the trustee. However, this provision will not prevent any holder of debt securities from instituting suit for the enforcement of payment of the principal of, and any premium, and interest on, such debt securities at the respective due dates thereof.
The indentures provide that, subject to provisions in each indenture relating to its duties in the case of a default, a trustee has no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers at the request or direction of any holders of any series of debt securities then outstanding under the indenture, unless the holders have offered to the trustee reasonable security or indemnity. The holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series or of all debt securities then outstanding under an indenture shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the applicable trustee, or of exercising any trust or power conferred upon such trustee. However, a trustee may refuse to follow any direction which:
| ● | is in conflict with any law or the applicable indenture; |
| ● | may involve the trustee in personal liability; or |
| ● | may be unduly prejudicial to the holders of debt securities of the series not joining the proceeding. |
Within 120 days after the close of each fiscal year, we will be required to deliver to each trustee a certificate, signed by one of our several specified officers, stating whether or not that officer has knowledge of any default under the applicable indenture. If the officer has knowledge of any default, the notice must specify the nature and status of the default.
22
Modification of the Indentures
Subject to certain exceptions, the indentures may be amended with the consent of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of all series affected by such amendment (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange for the debt securities of such series).
We and the applicable trustee may make modifications and amendments of an indenture without the consent of any holder of debt securities for any of the following purposes:
| ● | to cure any ambiguity, defect, or inconsistency in the applicable indenture or in the Securities of any series; |
| ● | to comply with the covenant described above under “—Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets”; |
| ● | to provide for uncertificated debt securities in addition to or in place of certificated debt securities; |
| ● | to add events of default for the benefit of the holders of all or any series of debt securities; |
| ● | to add the covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions relating to us for the benefit of the holders of all or any series of debt securities (and if such covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions are to be for the benefit of less than all series of debt securities, stating that such covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions are expressly being included solely for the benefit of such series), to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and the continuance, of a default in any such additional covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions an event of default, or to surrender any right or power in the applicable indenture conferred upon us; |
| ● | to add to, delete from, or revise the conditions, limitations, and restrictions on the authorized amount, terms, or purposes of issue, authentication, and delivery of debt securities, as set forth in the applicable indenture; |
| ● | to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any holder of notes under the applicable indenture in any material respect; |
| ● | to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of the debt securities of any series as provided in the applicable indenture, to establish the form of any certifications required to be furnished pursuant to the terms of the applicable indenture or any series of debt securities under the applicable indenture, or to add to the rights of the holders of any series of debt securities; |
| ● | to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment under the applicable indenture by a successor trustee or to appoint a separate trustee with respect to any series; |
| ● | to comply with any requirements of the SEC or any successor in connection with the qualification of the indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, or the Trust Indenture Act; or |
| ● | to conform the applicable indenture to this “—Description of Debt Securities” or any other similarly titled section in any prospectus supplement or other offering document relating to a series of debt securities. |
Subordination
Payment by us of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on any series of subordinated debt securities issued under the subordinated indenture will be subordinated to the extent set forth in an indenture supplemental to the subordinated indenture relating to such series.
23
Discharge, Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance
Unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, the indentures allow us to discharge our obligations to holders of any series of debt securities issued under any indenture when:
| ● | either (i) all securities of such series have already been delivered to the applicable trustee for cancellation; or (ii) all securities of such series have not already been delivered to the applicable trustee for cancellation but (a) have become due and payable, (b) will become due and payable within one year, or (c) if redeemable at our option, are to be redeemed within one year, and we have irrevocably deposited with the applicable trustee, in trust, funds in such currency or currencies, or governmental obligations in an amount sufficient to pay the entire indebtedness on such debt securities in respect of principal and any premium, and interest to the date of such deposit if such debt securities have become due and payable or, if they have not, to the stated maturity or redemption date; or |
| ● | we have paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable. |
Unless otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, the indentures provide that, upon our irrevocable deposit with the applicable trustee, in trust, of an amount, in such currency or currencies in which such debt securities are payable at stated maturity, or government obligations, or both, applicable to such debt securities, which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in accordance with their terms will provide money in an amount sufficient to pay the principal of, and any premium or make-whole amount, and interest on, such debt securities, and any mandatory sinking fund or analogous payments thereon, on the scheduled due dates therefor, the issuing company shall be released from its obligations with respect to such debt securities under the applicable indenture or, if provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, its obligations with respect to any other covenant, and any omission to comply with such obligations shall not constitute an event of default with respect to such debt securities.
The applicable prospectus supplement may further describe the provisions, if any, permitting such defeasance or covenant defeasance, including any modifications to the provisions described above, with respect to the debt securities of or within a particular series.
Conversion Rights
The terms and conditions, if any, upon which the debt securities are convertible into common stock or other securities of ours will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. The terms will include whether the debt securities are convertible into shares of common stock or other securities of ours, the conversion price, or manner of calculation thereof, the conversion period, provisions as to whether conversion will be at the issuing company’s option or the option of the holders, the events requiring an adjustment of the conversion price and provisions affecting conversion in the event of the redemption of the debt securities and any restrictions on conversion.
Governing Law
The indentures and the debt securities will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, except to the extent that the Trust Indenture Act is applicable.
24
The following description, together with the additional information we may include in any applicable prospectus supplements, summarizes the material terms and provisions of the warrants that we may offer under this prospectus and the related warrant agreements and warrant certificates. While the terms summarized below will apply generally to any warrants that we may offer, we will describe the particular terms of any series of warrants in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. If we indicate in the prospectus supplement, the terms of any warrants offered under that prospectus supplement may differ from the terms described below. Specific warrant agreements will contain additional important terms and provisions and will be incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement, which includes this prospectus.
General
We may issue warrants for the purchase of common stock, preferred stock and/or debt securities in one or more series. We may issue warrants independently or together with common stock, preferred stock and/or debt securities, and the warrants may be attached to or separate from these securities.
We will evidence each series of warrants by warrant certificates that we will issue under a separate warrant agreement. We will enter into the warrant agreement with a warrant agent. We will indicate the name and address of the warrant agent in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to a particular series of warrants.
We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the series of warrants, including:
| ● | the offering price and aggregate number of warrants offered; |
| ● | the currency for which the warrants may be purchased; |
| ● | if applicable, the designation and terms of the securities with which the warrants are issued and the number of warrants issued with each such security or each principal amount of such security; |
| ● | if applicable, the date on and after which the warrants and the related securities will be separately transferable; |
| ● | in the case of warrants to purchase debt securities, the principal amount of debt securities purchasable upon exercise of one warrant and the price at, and currency in which, this principal amount of debt securities may be purchased upon such exercise; |
| ● | in the case of warrants to purchase common stock or preferred stock, the number of shares of common stock or preferred stock, as the case may be, purchasable upon the exercise of one warrant and the price at which these shares may be purchased upon such exercise; |
| ● | the effect of any merger, consolidation, sale or other disposition of our business on the warrant agreement and the warrants; |
| ● | the terms of any rights to redeem or call the warrants; |
| ● | any provisions for changes to or adjustments in the exercise price or number of securities issuable upon exercise of the warrants; |
| ● | the periods during which, and places at which, the warrants are exercisable; |
| ● | the manner of exercise; |
| ● | the dates on which the right to exercise the warrants will commence and expire; |
| ● | the manner in which the warrant agreement and warrants may be modified; |
| ● | federal income tax consequences of holding or exercising the warrants; |
| ● | the terms of the securities issuable upon exercise of the warrants; and |
| ● | any other specific terms, preferences, rights or limitations of or restrictions on the warrants. |
25
We may issue units comprised of shares of common stock, shares of preferred stock, debt securities and warrants in any combination. We may issue units in such amounts and in as many distinct series as we wish. This section outlines certain provisions of the units that we may issue. If we issue units, they will be issued under one or more unit agreements to be entered into between us and a bank or other financial institution, as unit agent. The information described in this section may not be complete in all respects and is qualified entirely by reference to the unit agreement with respect to the units of any particular series. The specific terms of any series of units offered will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. If so described in a particular supplement, the specific terms of any series of units may differ from the general description of terms presented below. We urge you to read any prospectus supplement related to any series of units we may offer, as well as the complete unit agreement and unit certificate that contain the terms of the units. If we issue units, forms of unit agreements and unit certificates relating to such units will be incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement, which includes this prospectus.
Each unit that we may issue will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any time before a specified date. The applicable prospectus supplement may describe:
| ● | the designation and terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether and under what circumstances those securities may be held or transferred separately; |
| ● | any provisions of the governing unit agreement; |
| ● | the price or prices at which such units will be issued; |
| ● | the applicable United States federal income tax considerations relating to the units; |
| ● | any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units; and |
| ● | any other terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units. |
The provisions described in this section, as well as those described under “Description of Capital Stock,” “Description of Debt Securities” and “Description of Warrants” will apply to the securities included in each unit, to the extent relevant and as may be updated in any prospectus supplements.
Issuance in Series
We may issue units in such amounts and in as many distinct series as we wish. This section summarizes terms of the units that apply generally to all series. Most of the financial and other specific terms of a particular series of units will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
Unit Agreements
We will issue the units under one or more unit agreements to be entered into between us and a bank or other financial institution, as unit agent. We may add, replace or terminate unit agents from time to time. We will identify the unit agreement under which each series of units will be issued and the unit agent under that agreement in the applicable prospectus supplement.
26
The following provisions will generally apply to all unit agreements unless otherwise stated in the applicable prospectus supplement:
Modification without Consent
We and the applicable unit agent may amend any unit or unit agreement without the consent of any holder:
| ● | to cure any ambiguity, including modifying any provisions of the governing unit agreement that differ from those described below; |
| ● | to correct or supplement any defective or inconsistent provision; or |
| ● | to make any other change that we believe is necessary or desirable and will not adversely affect the interests of the affected holders in any material respect. |
We do not need any approval to make changes that affect only units to be issued after the changes take effect. We may also make changes that do not adversely affect a particular unit in any material respect, even if they adversely affect other units in a material respect. In those cases, we do not need to obtain the approval of the holder of the unaffected unit; we need only obtain any required approvals from the holders of the affected units.
Modification with Consent
We may not amend any particular unit or a unit agreement with respect to any particular unit unless we obtain the consent of the holder of that unit, if the amendment would:
| ● | impair any right of the holder to exercise or enforce any right under a security included in the unit if the terms of that security require the consent of the holder to any changes that would impair the exercise or enforcement of that right; or |
| ● | reduce the percentage of outstanding units or any series or class the consent of whose holders is required to amend that series or class, or the applicable unit agreement with respect to that series or class, as described below. |
Any other change to a particular unit agreement and the units issued under that agreement would require the following approval:
| ● | If the change affects only the units of a particular series issued under that agreement, the change must be approved by the holders of a majority of the outstanding units of that series; or |
| ● | If the change affects the units of more than one series issued under that agreement, it must be approved by the holders of a majority of all outstanding units of all series affected by the change, with the units of all the affected series voting together as one class for this purpose. |
These provisions regarding changes with majority approval also apply to changes affecting any securities issued under a unit agreement, as the governing document.
In each case, the required approval must be given by written consent.
Unit Agreements Will Not Be Qualified under Trust Indenture Act
No unit agreement will be qualified as an indenture, and no unit agent will be required to qualify as a trustee, under the Trust Indenture Act. Therefore, holders of units issued under unit agreements will not have the protections of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to their units.
Mergers and Similar Transactions Permitted; No Restrictive Covenants or Events of Default
The unit agreements will not restrict our ability to merge or consolidate with, or sell our assets to, another corporation or other entity or to engage in any other transactions. If at any time we merge or consolidate with, or sell our assets substantially as an entirety to, another corporation or other entity, the successor entity will succeed to and assume our obligations under the unit agreements. We will then be relieved of any further obligation under these agreements.
The unit agreements will not include any restrictions on our ability to put liens on our assets, nor will they restrict our ability to sell our assets. The unit agreements also will not provide for any events of default or remedies upon the occurrence of any events of default.
27
Governing Law
The unit agreements and the units will be governed by Nevada law.
Form, Exchange and Transfer
We will issue each unit in global—i.e., book-entry—form only. Units in book-entry form will be represented by a global security registered in the name of a depositary, which will be the holder of all the units represented by the global security. Those who own beneficial interests in a unit will do so through participants in the depositary’s system, and the rights of these indirect owners will be governed solely by the applicable procedures of the depositary and its participants. We will describe book-entry securities, and other terms regarding the issuance and registration of the units in the applicable prospectus supplement.
Each unit and all securities comprising the unit will be issued in the same form.
If we issue any units in registered, non-global form, the following will apply to them. The units will be issued in the denominations stated in the applicable prospectus supplement. Holders may exchange their units for units of smaller denominations or combined into fewer units of larger denominations, as long as the total amount is not changed.
| ● | Holders may exchange or transfer their units at the office of the unit agent. Holders may also replace lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated units at that office. We may appoint another entity to perform these functions or perform them ourselves. |
| ● | Holders will not be required to pay a service charge to transfer or exchange their units, but they may be required to pay for any tax or other governmental charge associated with the transfer or exchange. The transfer or exchange, and any replacement, will be made only if our transfer agent is satisfied with the holder’s proof of legal ownership. The transfer agent may also require an indemnity before replacing any units. |
| ● | If we have the right to redeem, accelerate or settle any units before their maturity, and we exercise our right as to less than all those units or other securities, we may block the exchange or transfer of those units during the period beginning 15 days before the day we mail the notice of exercise and ending on the day of that mailing, in order to freeze the list of holders to prepare the mailing. We may also refuse to register transfers of or exchange any unit selected for early settlement, except that we will continue to permit transfers and exchanges of the unsettled portion of any unit being partially settled. We may also block the transfer or exchange of any unit in this manner if the unit includes securities that are or may be selected for early settlement. |
Only the depositary will be entitled to transfer or exchange a unit in global form, since it will be the sole holder of the unit.
Payments and Notices
In making payments and giving notices with respect to our units, we will follow the procedures as described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
28
We may sell the securities offered through this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement, if required, in any of the following ways: (i) to or through underwriters or dealers, (ii) directly to purchasers, including our affiliates, (iii) through agents, (iv) in an “at the market offering,” within the meaning of Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act or (v) through a combination of any of these methods or any other method permitted by law. The securities may be distributed at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, market prices prevailing at the time of sale, prices related to the prevailing market prices, or negotiated prices, either:
| ● | on or through the facilities of The Nasdaq Capital Market or any other securities exchange or quotation or trading service on which such securities may be listed, quoted or traded at the time of sale; and/or |
| ● | to or through a market maker otherwise than on The Nasdaq Capital Market or such other securities exchanges or quotation or trading services. |
In addition, we may issue the securities as a dividend or distribution or in a subscription rights offering to our existing security holders.
We may directly solicit offers to purchase securities, or agents may be designated to solicit such offers. In the prospectus supplement relating to such offering, we will name any agent that could be viewed as an underwriter under the Securities Act and describe any commissions that we must pay to any such agent. Any such agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment or, if indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, on a firm commitment basis. This prospectus may be used in connection with any offering of our securities through any of these methods or other methods described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
Each prospectus supplement will describe the method of distribution of the securities and any applicable restrictions.
The prospectus supplement with respect to the securities of a particular series will describe the terms of the offering of the securities, including the following:
| ● | the name of the agent or any underwriters; |
| ● | the public offering or purchase price; |
| ● | any discounts and commissions to be allowed or paid to the agent or underwriters; |
| ● | all other items constituting underwriting compensation; |
| ● | any discounts and commissions to be allowed or paid to dealers; and |
| ● | any exchanges on which the securities will be listed. |
If any underwriters or agents are used in the sale of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered, we will enter into an underwriting agreement, sales agreement or other agreement with them at the time of sale to them, and we will set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to such offering the names of the underwriters or agents and the terms of the related agreement with them.
In connection with the offering of securities, we may grant to the underwriters an option to purchase additional securities with an additional underwriting commission, as may be set forth in the accompanying prospectus supplement. If we grant any such option, the terms of such option will be set forth in the prospectus supplement for such securities.
If a dealer is used in the sale of the securities in respect of which the prospectus is delivered, we will sell such securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer, who may be deemed to be an “underwriter” as that term is defined in the Securities Act, may then resell such securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by such dealer at the time of resale.
29
If we offer securities in a subscription rights offering to our existing security holders, we may enter into a standby underwriting agreement with dealers, acting as standby underwriters. We may pay the standby underwriters a commitment fee for the securities they commit to purchase on a standby basis. If we do not enter into a standby underwriting arrangement, we may retain a dealer-manager to manage a subscription rights offering for us.
Agents, underwriters, dealers and other persons may be entitled under agreements which they may enter into with us to indemnification by us against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and may be customers of, engage in transactions with or perform services for us in the ordinary course of business.
If so indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will authorize underwriters or other persons acting as our agents to solicit offers by certain institutions to purchase securities from us pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on the date stated in the prospectus supplement. Each contract will be for an amount not less than, and the aggregate amount of securities sold pursuant to such contracts shall not be less nor more than, the respective amounts stated in the prospectus supplement. Institutions with whom the contracts, when authorized, may be made include commercial and savings banks, insurance companies, pension funds, investment companies, educational and charitable institutions and other institutions, but shall in all cases be subject to our approval. Delayed delivery contracts will not be subject to any conditions except that:
| ● | the purchase by an institution of the securities covered under that contract shall not at the time of delivery be prohibited under the laws of the jurisdiction to which that institution is subject; and |
| ● | if the securities are also being sold to underwriters acting as principals for their own account, the underwriters shall have purchased such securities not sold for delayed delivery. The underwriters and other persons acting as our agents will not have any responsibility in respect of the validity or performance of delayed delivery contracts. |
Offered securities may also be offered and sold, if so indicated in the prospectus supplement, in connection with a remarketing upon their purchase, in accordance with a redemption or repayment pursuant to their terms, or otherwise, by one or more remarketing firms, acting as principals for their own accounts or as agents for us. Any remarketing firm will be identified and the terms of its agreement, if any, with us and its compensation will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Remarketing firms may be deemed to be underwriters in connection with their remarketing of offered securities.
Certain agents, underwriters and dealers, and their associates and affiliates, may be customers of, have borrowing relationships with, engage in other transactions with, or perform services, including investment banking services, for us or one or more of our respective affiliates in the ordinary course of business.
Certain underwriters may use this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement for offers and sales related to market-making transactions in the securities. These underwriters may act as principal or agent in these transactions, and the sales will be made at prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of sale. Any underwriters involved in the sale of the securities may qualify as “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. In addition, the underwriters’ commissions, discounts or concessions may qualify as underwriters’ compensation under the Securities Act and the rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”).
In order to facilitate the offering of the securities, any underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the securities or any other securities the prices of which may be used to determine payments on such securities. Specifically, any underwriters may overallot in connection with the offering, creating a short position for their own accounts. In addition, to cover overallotments or to stabilize the price of the securities or of any such other securities, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, the securities or any such other securities in the open market. Finally, in any offering of the securities through a syndicate of underwriters, the underwriting syndicate may reclaim selling concessions allowed to an underwriter or a dealer for distributing the securities in the offering if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed securities in transactions to cover syndicate short positions, in stabilization transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities above independent market levels. Any such underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may end any of these activities at any time.
30
We may engage in at the market offerings into an existing trading market in accordance with Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act. In addition, we may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement so indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by us or borrowed from us or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of stock, and may use securities received from us in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of stock. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and, if not identified in this prospectus, will be named in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment). In addition, we may otherwise loan or pledge securities to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the securities short using this prospectus and an applicable prospectus supplement. Such financial institution or other third party may transfer its economic short position to investors in our securities or in connection with a concurrent offering of other securities.
Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. The applicable prospectus supplement may provide that the original issue date for your securities may be more than two scheduled business days after the trade date for your securities. Accordingly, in such a case, if you wish to trade securities on any date prior to the second business day before the original issue date for your securities, you will be required, by virtue of the fact that your securities initially are expected to settle in more than two scheduled business days after the trade date for your securities, to make alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.
The securities may be new issues of securities and may have no established trading market. The securities may or may not be listed on a national securities exchange. We can make no assurance as to the liquidity of or the existence of trading markets for any of the securities.
The specific terms of any lock-up provisions in respect of any given offering will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
Any underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with us, or perform services for us, in the ordinary course of business for which they receive compensation.
The anticipated date of delivery of offered securities will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to each offer.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our current directors and executive officers. These agreements require us to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted under Nevada law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to us, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. We also intend to enter into indemnification agreements with our future directors and executive officers.
We are a Nevada corporation and generally governed by the Nevada Private Corporations Code, Title 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, or NRS.
Section 78.138 of the NRS provides that, unless the corporation’s articles of incorporation provide otherwise, a director or officer will not be individually liable unless it is proven that (i) the director’s or officer’s acts or omissions constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties, and (ii) such breach involved intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of the law. Our articles of incorporation provide the personal liability of our directors is eliminated to the fullest extent permitted under the NRS.
Section 78.7502 of the NRS permits a Nevada corporation to indemnify its directors and officers against expenses, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with a threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, if the officer or director (i) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138, or (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner the officer or director reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, if a criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct of the officer or director was unlawful.
Section 78.7502 of the NRS precludes indemnification by the corporation if the officer or director has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court determines that in view of all the circumstances, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses.
II-1
Discretionary indemnification pursuant to Section 78.7502 may be made as authorized upon determination that the indemnification is proper under the circumstances. Such determination may be made by (i) the stockholders; (ii) the board of directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit, or proceeding; or (iii) independent legal counsel if ordered by a majority of the quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit, or proceeding or if a quorum of directors who were not parties to the action, suit, or proceeding cannot be obtained.
Section 78.751 of the NRS requires a Nevada corporation to indemnify its officers and directors to the extent such person is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any actual or threatened civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action, suit, or proceeding or any claim, issue, or matter therein, including an action by or in the right of the corporation, if such person is or was serving as an officer or director of the corporation or, at the request of the corporation, as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. Such indemnification shall be for expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the person, including attorney’s fees, in connection with defending any such action, suit, or proceeding.
Unless otherwise restricted by the articles of incorporation, bylaws, or an agreement made by the corporation, Section 78.751 of the NRS provides that a corporation may pay expenses as incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit, or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the officer or director to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such officer or director is not entitled to be indemnified by the company. Section 78.751 of the NRS further permits the corporation to grant its directors and officers additional rights of indemnification under its articles of incorporation, bylaws, or other agreement, including the requirement of mandatory advance payment of expenses.
Section 78.752 of the NRS provides that a Nevada company may purchase and maintain insurance or make other financial arrangements on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the company, or is or was serving at the request of the company as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, for any liability asserted against him and liability and expenses incurred by him in his capacity as a director, officer, employee, or agent, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the company has the authority to indemnify him against such liability and expenses.
Our bylaws implement the indemnification provisions permitted by Chapter 78 of the NRS by providing that we shall indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS against expense, liability, and loss reasonably incurred or suffered by them in connection with their service as an officer or director. Our bylaws require the payment of costs and expenses incurred with respect to any proceeding to which a person is made a party as a result of being a director or officer in advance of final disposition of such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification. We may purchase and maintain liability insurance, or make other arrangements for such obligations or otherwise, to the extent permitted by the NRS.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling our company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Item 16. Exhibits
A list of exhibits filed with this registration statement on Form S-3 is set forth on the Exhibit Index and 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 Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
(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 (a)(l)(i), (a)(l)(ii) and (a)(l)(iii) of this section 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 Securities and Exchange Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 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 of 1933 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)(l)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 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 that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; 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;
II-3
(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, the undersigned registrant undertakes that 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 of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) 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; and
(7) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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.
(8) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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.
(9) To file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under subsection (a) of Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission under Section 305(b)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act.
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 Securities Act of 1933 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 Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue;
