Overview
BioSig Technologies is a medical device company with an advanced digital signal processing technology platform to deliver insights to the treatment of cardiovascular arrhythmias. Through collaboration with physicians, experts, and healthcare leaders across the field of electrophysiology (EP), we are committed to addressing healthcare’s biggest priorities — saving time, saving costs, and saving lives.
Our first product, the PURE EP™ System, is an FDA 510(k) cleared non-invasive class II device consisting of a unique combination of hardware and software designed to provide unprecedented signal clarity and precision for real-time visualization of intracardiac signals paving the way for personalized patient care. Integrating with existing systems in the EP lab, PURE EP™ is designed to accurately pinpoint even the most complex signals to maximize procedural success and efficiency.
By capturing critical cardiac signals—even the most complex, the PURE EP™ System is designed to enhance clinical decision-making and improve clinical workflow for all types of arrhythmias - even the most challenging procedures for cardiac arrhythmias, like ventricular tachycardia (VT) and atrial fibrillation (AF).
Our owned patent portfolio now includes 36 (issued/allowed) issued utility patents (24 utility patents where BioSig is at least one of the applicants). Twenty five additional U.S. and foreign utility patent applications are pending covering various aspects of our PURE EP System for recording, measuring, calculating and displaying of electrocardiograms during cardiac ablation procedures (25 U.S. and foreign utility patent applications where either BioSig, Mayo, or both is at least one of the applicants). We also have one U.S. patent and one U.S. Pending application directed to artificial intelligence (AI). We also have 30 issued worldwide design patents, which cover various features of our display screens and graphical user interface for enhanced visualization of biomedical signals (30 design patents where BioSig is at least one of the applicants). Finally, we have licenses to 12 (issued/allowed) patents and 9 additional worldwide utility patent applications from Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research that are pending (12 issued/allowed patents and 9 applications where only Mayo is the applicant). These patents and applications are generally directed to electroporation and stimulation.
Reverse Stock Split
On January 31, 2024, the Company filed a Reverse Stock Split Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, effective February 2, 2024. Pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split Amendment, the Company effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Authorized common and preferred stock was not adjusted because of the reverse stock split. Unless the context expressly dictates otherwise, all references to share and per share amounts referred to herein give effect to the reverse stock split.
Notices of Delisting
On March 5, 2024, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company has not regained compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because the Company’s common stock did not meet the minimum bid price of $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, and the Company is not eligible for a second 180 day cure period under Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(2) because the Company does not comply with the $5,000,000 minimum stockholders’ equity initial listing requirement for The Nasdaq Capital Market, and that accordingly, Nasdaq would delist the Company’s common stock unless the Company requested an appeal of this determination. On March 11, 2024, the Company submitted a request for a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Hearings Panel”) to appeal the Staff’s delisting determination.
| 2 |
On March 12, 2024, the Company received a letter from the Staff stating that based upon the Staff’s review of the Company and pursuant to Listing Rule 5101, the Staff believes that the Company no longer has an operating business and is a “public shell,” and that the continued listing of its securities is no longer warranted, in view of work force reductions and resignations of members of the board of directors and officers.
The letter further stated that the Company no longer meets the requirement of Rule 5550(b)(2) to maintain a minimum Market Value of Listed Securities of $35 million, if none of the other standards set forth in Rule 5550(b) is met.
The Staff stated that the foregoing matters serve as an additional basis for delisting the Company’s common stock from The Nasdaq Capital Market, and that the Hearings Panel will consider this matter in rendering a determination regarding the Company’s continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
The Company appealed the foregoing determinations. The requested hearing before the Hearings Panel was held on May 7, 2024.
On May 6, 2024, the Company received a letter from the Staff stating that the Company has regained compliance with the bid price requirements in Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because the bid price of the common stock closed at or above $1.00 per share for a period of 20 consecutive business days, from April 8, 2024 to May 3, 2024.
On May 28, 2024, the Company was notified by Nasdaq that the Hearings Panel determined that the Company is not a public shell and granted the Company’s request for continued listing subject to, among other conditions, (i) the Company’s compliance with all applicable criteria for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, including the $2.5 million stockholders’ equity requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Equity Rule”), by June 6, 2024, (ii) on or before May 31, 2024, the Company must notify the Hearings Panel that it has completed the transactions described to the Hearings Panel to achieve compliance with the Equity Rule and (iii) on or before June 6, 2024, the Company must file a Form 8-K describing these transactions and indicating its post-transaction equity.
On June 10, 2024, the Company received formal notice that the Hearings Panel had determined to delist the Company’s common stock from Nasdaq due to the Company’s continued non-compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. As a result, trading in the Company’s common stock was suspended on The Nasdaq Capital Market effective with the open of business on June 12, 2024. The Company’s common stock commenced trading on the OTC Markets’ Pink Current Information tier under symbol “BSGM” effective with the open of trading on June 12, 2024.
On June 13, 2024, the Company submitted a request for reconsideration to appeal the Hearings Panel’s decision to delist the Company’s common stock from Nasdaq. On June 24, 2024, the Company received formal notice that the Hearings Panel declined to reconsider its decision. On June 25, 2024, the Company appealed the Hearing Panel’s June 10, 2024, determination in an effort to maintain the Company’s listing on Nasdaq. The Company is at present seeking approval for its common stock to trade on the OTC Market’s OTCQB trading platform.
Recent Developments
On May 1, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company sold to the investors an aggregate of 783,406 shares of the Company’s common stock at a purchase price of $1.4605 per share, and warrants to purchase up to 391,703 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.398 per share, that will become exercisable six months after the date of issuance and will expire five and one-half years following the date of issuance, in exchange for aggregate consideration of $1,144,164, including $634,999 in cash and $509,165 representing conversion of the principal balance of and accrued interest on a previously issued related party note payable. The note was not convertible by its terms, but the holder agreed to convert it into shares of common stock and warrants under the terms of the purchase agreement.
On June 5, 2024, Frederick D. Hrkac resigned as acting chief financial officer and principal accounting officer of the Company, effective as of the same date. Also on June 5, 2024, the Company and Ferdinand Groenewald entered into a consulting agreement (the “Agreement”) effective June 5, 2024, pursuant to which Mr. Groenewald will lead accounting and financial reporting activities of the Company. Mr. Groenewald will serve as the Company’s interim chief financial officer, principal accounting officer and vice president of finance. The Agreement will continue indefinitely until terminated by either party upon 30 days’ advance notice. The Agreement provides for compensation at a fixed rate of $15,000 per month and reimbursement by the Company for any usual and customary business expenses incurred by Mr. Groenewald in connection with performing services pursuant to the Agreement. In addition, the Agreement provides for the Company to indemnify Mr. Groenewald on terms customary for officers.

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks set forth under the section captioned “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus, and in the other reports that we file with the SEC and incorporate by reference into this prospectus, before deciding to invest in our common stock. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face.
If any of the events described in these risk factors actually occurs, or if additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial later materialize, then our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In that event, the trading price of our securities could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment in our securities. The risks discussed include forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus, and any documents we incorporate by reference, contain certain forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements contained in this prospectus and any documents we incorporate by reference, other than statements of historical facts, are forward-looking statements including statements regarding our strategy, future operations, future financial position, future revenue, projected costs, prospects, plans, objectives of management and expected market growth. These statements are often, but are not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “will,” and “would,” or the negative of these terms, or similar expressions. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in such statements, including, without limitation, the following:
| ● | our history of recurring losses and negative cash flows from operating activities and the uncertainty regarding the adequacy of our liquidity to pursue or complete our business objectives, and substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern; |
| ● | the results of ongoing and future clinical studies; |
| ● | our inability to successfully develop or commercialize our product candidates; |
| ● | market acceptance of existing and new products; |
| ● | our inability to carry out research, development and commercialization plans; |
| ● | our inability to complete preclinical testing and clinical trials as anticipated; |
| ● | changes in our relationship with key collaborators; |
| ● | our ability to adequately protect and enforce rights to intellectual property; |
| ● | our need to raise additional capital to meet our business requirements in the future and the difficulties in obtaining financing on commercially reasonable terms, or at all; |
| ● | intense competition in our industry, with competitors having substantially greater financial, technological, research and development, regulatory and clinical, manufacturing, marketing and sales, distribution and personnel resources than we do; |
| 5 |
| ● | entry of new competitors and products and potential technological obsolescence of our products; |
| ● | effect of healthcare legislation or reform measures that may substantially change the market for medical care or healthcare coverage in the U.S.; |
| ● | our failure to obtain regulatory approvals; |
| ● | adverse market and economic conditions; |
| ● | our de-listing from The Nasdaq Capital Market; |
| ● | our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely impacted by public health epidemics, including the COVID-19 outbreak; |
| ● | loss of one or more key executives; |
| ● | difficulties in securing and retaining regulatory approval to market our product and product candidates; and |
| ● | depth of the trading market in our common stock. |
These forward-looking statements are only predictions and we may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, so you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and operating results. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included in this prospectus that could cause actual future results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments we may make.
You should read this prospectus with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
All shares of common stock offered by this prospectus are being registered for the account of the selling stockholders and we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares. However, we will receive proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants if the Warrants are exercised for cash. We intend to use those proceeds, if any, for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Unless the context otherwise requires, as used in this prospectus, “selling stockholders” includes the selling stockholders listed below and donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares received after the date of this prospectus from the selling stockholders as gifts, pledges or other non-sale related transfers.
We have prepared this prospectus to allow the selling stockholders or their successors, assignees or other permitted transferees to sell or otherwise dispose of, from time to time, up to 1,680,631 shares of our common stock which are issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants.
May 2024 Securities Purchase Agreement
On May 29, 2024, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with the selling stockholders, pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell (i) in a registered direct offering to certain investors 1,570,683 shares of common stock at a price of $1.91 per share and (ii) in a concurrent private placement, the Warrants exercisable for an aggregate of up to 1,570,683 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $1.78 per share.

| 6 |
Pursuant to the terms of the securities purchase agreement, we are required within 30 days of the offering to file a registration statement on Form S-1 or other appropriate form registering the resale of the shares of common stock issued and issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants. We are required to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration to become effective within 60 days of the closing date of the offering (or within 90 days of the closing date of the offering in case of “full review” of such registration statement by the SEC), and to keep the registration statement effective at all times until no investor owns any Warrants or shares issuable upon exercise thereof.
Placement Agent Warrants
As part of the compensation to the Placement Agent in connection with the May 2024 Offering, pursuant to the Engagement Letter, we issued to designees of the Placement Agent unregistered Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 109,948 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.3875. These Warrants are exercisable immediately and will expire five years from the commencement of the sales pursuant to the May 2024 Offering.
The resale of the common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants issued to the Placement Agent is being registered in this registration statement.
Relationship with the Selling Stockholders
The Selling Stockholders have not had any material relationships with our officers, directors, or affiliates over the past three years, except as described below.
The Placement Agent has been engaged in investment banking, advisory and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us for which it has received customary compensation. The Placement Agent acted as the placement agent in connection with the May 2024 Offering and our registered direct offering in November 2023, and it received compensation for such offerings.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED
The following summary of the rights of our capital stock is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, each amended to date, copies of which are filed as exhibits to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 16, 2024, and the forms of securities, copies of which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, which are incorporated by reference herein.
Authorized Capital Stock
We have authorized 201,000,000 shares of capital stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 200,000,000 are shares of common stock and 1,000,000 are shares of “blank check” preferred stock, of which 200 are authorized as Series A Preferred Stock, 600 are authorized as Series B Preferred Stock, 4,200 are authorized as Series C Preferred Stock, 1,400 are authorized as Series D Preferred Stock, 1,000 are authorized as Series E Preferred Stock and 200,000 are authorized as Series F Junior Participating Preferred Stock. As of June 25, 2024, there were 15,110,846 shares of common stock outstanding, 105 shares of Series C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding and no shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, Series E Convertible Preferred Stock or Series F Junior Participating Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. The authorized and unissued shares of common stock and the authorized and undesignated shares of preferred stock are available for issuance without further action by our stockholders, unless such action is required by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange on which our securities may be listed. Unless approval of our stockholders is so required, our board of directors does not intend to seek stockholder approval for the issuance and sale of our common stock or preferred stock.
Common Stock
The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by stockholders. Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably dividends as may be declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available for that purpose. We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future but intend to retain our capital resources for reinvestment in our business. Any future disposition of dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon, among other things, our future earnings, operating and financial condition, capital requirements, and other factors.
Each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote, either in person or by proxy, at meetings of stockholders. The holders are not permitted to vote their shares cumulatively. Accordingly, the stockholders of our common stock who hold, in the aggregate, more than fifty percent of the total voting rights can elect all of our directors and, in such event, the holders of the remaining minority shares will not be able to elect any of such directors. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes) on any matter other than the election of directors that is presented to stockholders at a duly called or convened meeting at which a quorum is present is sufficient to authorize, affirm, ratify or consent to such act or action, except as otherwise provided by our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws, the rules or regulations of any stock exchange applicable to us, or applicable law or pursuant to any regulation applicable to us or our securities.
Holders of our common stock have no preemptive rights or other subscription rights, conversion rights, redemption or sinking fund provisions. Subject to the rights of the holders of our preferred stock, upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of our 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.
The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Securities Transfer Corporation. The transfer agent’s address is 2901 N Dallas Parkway Suite 380 Plano, Texas 75093. Our common stock is traded on the OTC Markets’ Pink Current Information tier under symbol “BSGM”.
The selling stockholders, including their pledgees, donees, transferees, distributees, beneficiaries or other successors in interest may, from time to time, offer some or all of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus by the selling stockholders. However, we will receive proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants if the Warrants are exercised for cash. We intend to use those proceeds, if any, for working capital purposes. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus.
| 10 |
The selling stockholders may sell all or a portion of the shares of common stock beneficially owned by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the shares of common stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the selling stockholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions. The shares of common stock may be sold on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the time of sale, in the over-the-counter market or in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market and in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at privately negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block transactions.
The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares:
| ● | ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; |
| ● | block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
| ● | purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; |
| ● | an over-the-counter distribution; |
| ● | an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
| ● | privately negotiated transactions; |
| ● | short sales effected after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part; |
| ● | through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; |
| ● | broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; |
| ● | a combination of any such methods of sale; or |
| ● | any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act, amending the list of the selling stockholders to include the selling stockholders’ pledgees, transferees, or other successors in interest as selling stockholder under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
In connection with the sale of shares of our common stock, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these shares to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these shares. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
| 11 |
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. If the selling stockholders effect certain transactions by selling shares of common stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders or commissions from purchasers of the shares of common stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal. Such commissions will be in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction will not be in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with applicable FINRA rules; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with applicable FINRA rules.
The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. The selling stockholders reserve the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.
The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided that they meet the criteria and conforms to the requirements of that rule.
The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. The selling stockholders are subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.
To the extent required pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the purchase price and public offering price, the names of any agent, dealer or underwriter, and any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.
In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states, the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.
The selling stockholders and any other person participating in a sale of the common stock registered under this prospectus will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, to the extent applicable, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholders and any other participating person. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
The validity of the securities offered by this prospectus will be passed upon by Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel, LLP, New York, New York.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Set forth below is a description of certain provisions of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended to date (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) and Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended to date (the “Bylaws”), and the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). This description is intended as a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws and the DGCL.
Limitation on Liability of Directors
Article IX of the Certificate of Incorporation limits the personal liability of directors to the Company or the Company’s stockholders for monetary damages for acts or omissions occurring in their capacity as directors, to the fully extent permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware and any other applicable law, as such laws currently exist and to such greater extent as they may provide in the future.
Indemnification and Insurance
Section 145 of the DGCL provides, in general, that a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, as we are, may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (other than a derivative action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. In the case of a derivative action, a Delaware corporation may indemnify any such person against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification will be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person will have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any other court in which such action was brought determines such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses.
The Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors, officers, employees and agents to the extent and in the manner permitted by the provisions of the DGCL, as amended from time to time, subject to any permissible expansion or limitation of such indemnification, as may be set forth in any stockholders’ or directors’ resolution or by contract. Any repeal or modification of these provisions approved by our stockholders will be prospective only and will not adversely affect any limitation on the liability of any of our directors or officers existing as of the time of such repeal or modification.
We are also permitted to apply for insurance on behalf of any director, officer, employee or other agent for liability arising out of his actions, whether or not the DGCL would permit indemnification.

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;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
Provided, however, that:
Paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) 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 SEC 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, 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) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
(i) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from a form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in the form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act, shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(ii) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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.
(5) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(6) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has 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. 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 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
