PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

This summary provides an overview of selected information contained elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. This summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing in our securities. You should carefully read the prospectus, the information incorporated by reference and the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part in their entirety before investing in our securities, including the information discussed under “Risk Factors” in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference and our financial statements and related notes that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

 

Overview of the Company

 

U.S. Gold Corp. is a gold, copper and precious metals development and exploration company pursuing exploration opportunities primarily in Wyoming, Nevada and Idaho. While we are an exploration and development company that owns certain mining leases and other mineral rights comprising the CK Gold Project in Wyoming, the Keystone Project in Nevada and the Challis Gold Project in Idaho, most of our recent activity has focused on moving the CK Gold Project along the development pathway. Our CK Gold Project’s property contains proven and probable mineral reserves and accordingly is classified as a development stage property, as defined in subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC. None of our other properties contain proven and probable mineral reserves and all activities are exploratory in nature. We do not currently have any revenue-producing activities.

 

Recent Developments

 

On December 23, 2025, we entered into the Purchase Agreements with certain investors for the sale and issuance in a non-brokered private placement of an aggregate of 1,922,159 shares of our Common Stock, at a purchase price of $16.25 per share. In addition, we agreed to issue to these investors the Warrants, which have an exercise price of $23.00 per share and will expire two years thereafter.

 

Corporate Information

 

Our principal executive offices are located at 1910 E. Idaho Street, Suite 102-Box 604, Elko, NV 89801 and our telephone number is (800) 557-4550. Our web site address is www.usgoldcorp.com. Information on our website is not incorporated in this prospectus and is not part of this prospectus, unless otherwise stated.

 

U.S. Gold Corp., formerly known as Dataram Corporation, was originally incorporated in the State of New Jersey in 1967 and was subsequently re-incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 30, 2015. Effective June 26, 2017, the Company changed its name to U.S. Gold Corp. from Dataram Corporation.

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. Our business is influenced by many factors that are difficult to predict, involve uncertainties that may materially affect actual results and are often beyond our control. You should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, filed with the SEC on July 29, 2025, as amended on October 10, 2025, and supplemented by our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which are each incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and other information in our consolidated financial statements, all of which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus, before deciding to invest in our Common Stock. Additional risks and uncertainties, including those of which we are currently unaware or that are currently deemed immaterial, may also adversely affect our business, financial condition, cash flows, prospects and the price of our Common Stock. Please also read carefully the section below entitled “Forward-Looking Statements.”

 

4

 

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus, including the documents that we incorporate by reference, contains predictive or “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements concern our anticipated results and developments in our operations in future periods, planned exploration and development of our properties, plans related to our business and other matters that may occur in the future. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management. These statements include, but are not limited to, comments regarding:

 

The timing, process, and outcome of permitting, construction, and development activities at the CK Gold Project;
The assumptions and projections contained in our updated CK Gold Project prefeasibility study, including estimated mineral resources and mineral reserves, mine life, projected operating and capital costs, projected production, internal rate of return and Net Present Value calculations, and the possibility of upside potential at the project;
The planned extensions of our leases;
Our planned expenditures during our fiscal year ending April 30, 2026;
Future exploration plans and expectations related to our properties;
Our ability to fund our business through April 30, 2026 with our current cash reserves based on our currently planned activities;
Our anticipation of future environmental and regulatory impacts; and
Our business and operating strategies.

 

We use the words “anticipate,” “continue,” “likely,” “estimate,” “expect,” “may,” “could,” “will,” “project,” “should,” “believe” and similar expressions (including negative and grammatical variations) to identify forward-looking statements. Statements that contain these words discuss our future expectations and plans, or state other forward-looking information. Although we believe the expectations and assumptions reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that these expectations and assumptions will prove to be correct. Our actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors described in this prospectus, including:

 

Unfavorable results from our exploration activities;
Decreases in gold, copper or silver prices;
Whether we are able to raise the necessary capital required to continue our business on terms acceptable to us or at all, and the likely negative effect of volatility in metals prices or unfavorable exploration results;
Whether we will be able to begin to mine and sell minerals successfully or profitably at any of our current properties at current or future metals prices;
Potential delays in our exploration activities or other activities to advance properties towards mining resulting from environmental consents or permitting delays or problems, accidents, problems with contractors, disputes under agreements related to exploration properties, unanticipated costs and other unexpected events;
Our ability to retain key management and mining personnel necessary to successfully operate and grow our business;
Economic and political events affecting the market prices for gold, copper, silver, and other minerals that may be found on our exploration properties;
Volatility in the market price of our Common Stock; and
The factors set forth under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, filed with the SEC on October 10, 2025.

 

You should read this prospectus and the documents that we reference herein completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we currently expect. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus and any document incorporated by reference is accurate as of its date only. Because the risk factors referred to above could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which factors will arise. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. We qualify all of the information presented in this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement and any document incorporated herein by reference, and particularly our forward-looking statements, by these cautionary statements.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

All shares of our Common Stock offered by this prospectus are being registered for the accounts of the selling stockholders, and we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares of Common Stock. 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 general corporate purposes. The selling stockholders will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses incurred by them for brokerage, accounting, tax or legal services or any other expenses incurred by the selling stockholders in disposing of shares of our Common Stock. We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of our Common Stock covered by this prospectus, including all registration and filing fees, and fees and expenses for our counsel and our independent registered public accountants.

 

6

 

 

DETERMINATION OF THE OFFERING PRICE

 

The offering price of our shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants is determined by reference to their exercise price of $23.00 per share of Common Stock. We would expect to receive approximately $22,104,771 in gross proceeds assuming the cash exercise of all the Warrants at the applicable exercise price. However, the Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis under certain circumstances. If all the Warrants are so exercised, we would not receive any gross proceeds from the cashless exercise of the Warrants. Also, we will not receive any of the proceeds from the disposition and/or resale of the shares of any Common Stock by the selling stockholders or their transferees, including the disposition and/or resale of any shares obtained upon exercise of the Warrants.

 

We cannot currently determine the price or prices at which shares of our Common Stock may be sold by the selling stockholders under this prospectus.

 

7

 

 

MARKET INFORMATION FOR COMMON STOCK AND DIVIDEND POLICY

 

Market Information

 

Our Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “USAU.”

 

As of January 31, 2026, we had approximately 16,455,121 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding held of record by approximately 104 holders of record. Because many of our shares of Common Stock are held by brokers and other institutions on behalf of stockholders, we are unable to estimate the total number of beneficial owners of our Common Stock represented by these record holders.

 

Dividends

 

We have never paid cash dividends to the holders of our Common Stock and currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends to the holders of our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. Investors should not purchase our Common Stock with the expectation of receiving cash dividends. Any future determination to declare dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements, general business conditions, and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant.

 

8

 

 

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES BEING REGISTERED

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future but intend to retain our capital resources for reinvestment in our business.

CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

 

The following is a general summary of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations of the purchase, ownership, and disposition of our Common Stock. This summary does not describe all of the potential tax considerations that may be relevant in light of a prospective investor’s particular circumstances. For example, it does not address special classes of holders of our Common Stock, such as banks, thrifts, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, passive foreign investment companies, insurance companies, dealers in securities or currencies, tax-exempt investors, pension plans, tax-qualified retirement plans, or governmental organizations, foreign entities that are treated as stapled to a domestic entity pursuant to Section 269B of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), U.S. expatriates and former citizens or long-term residents of the United States or United States expatriated entities, or Non-U.S. Holders who have elected to mark securities to market or that hold our common stock as part of a “straddle,” “hedge,” or other risk reduction strategy or as part of a “conversion transaction,” or other integrated investment. This summary is limited to investors that acquire (i) Shares from the investors to whom they were issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreements and (ii) Warrant Shares from the investors to whom they were issued upon exercise of the Warrants, and hold such Shares and Warrant Shares as a capital asset within the meaning of the Code Section 1221 (generally, property held for investment purposes). Further, it does not include any description of any alternative minimum tax consequences, estate, gift, or generation-skipping tax consequences, or consequences under the tax laws of any state or local jurisdiction or of any foreign jurisdiction that may be applicable to holders of shares of our Common Stock. This summary is based on the Code, the U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, and administrative and judicial decisions, all as in effect on the date hereof, and all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations, possibly on a retroactive basis. There can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) will not challenge one or more of the descriptions of the tax consequences described herein, and we have not sought, nor will we seek, a ruling from the IRS with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of shares of our Common Stock.

 

As used in this prospectus, the term “Non-U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of our Common Stock that is not for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

 

an individual who is a citizen or resident (as determined under the Code) of the United States for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

 

a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in, or under the laws of, the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia;

 

an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

 

a trust, if either (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more United States persons (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (ii) such trust has made a valid election under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

 

If an entity or arrangement that is classified as a partnership (or other “pass-through” entity) for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds our Common Stock, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such entity and the partners (or other owners) of such entity generally will depend on the activities of the entity and the status of such partners (or owners). This summary does not address the tax consequences to any such partner (or owner). Partners (or other owners) of entities or arrangements that are classified as partnerships or as “pass-through” entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences arising from and relating to the purchase, ownership, and disposition of our Common Stock.

 

WE URGE ALL PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND NON-U.S. INCOME, ESTATE AND OTHER TAX CONSIDERATIONS OF ACQUIRING, HOLDING AND DISPOSING OF OUR COMMON STOCK.

 

10

 

 

Taxation of Non-U.S. Holders

 

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to Non-U.S. Holders of the ownership and disposition of the shares of Common Stock.

 

Distributions

 

Distributions on shares of our Common Stock will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. If a distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits, the excess will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital and will reduce (but not below zero) the Non-U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such shares of our Common Stock, and any remaining excess will be treated as gain realized from the sale or exchange of the shares of our Common Stock, the treatment of which is described below under the section entitled “—Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Shares of Common Stock.”

 

Subject to the discussion below under “—Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”),” dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder generally will be subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at the rate of 30%, or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. If a dividend is effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if an applicable tax treaty requires, is also attributable to a U.S. “permanent establishment” maintained by such Non-U.S. Holder), the dividend will not be subject to any withholding tax, provided certain certification requirements are satisfied (as described below), and subject to the discussion below under “—Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”).” Instead, such dividends will be subject to U.S. federal income tax imposed on net income on the same basis that applies to U.S. persons generally. A corporate Non-U.S. Holder under certain circumstances also may be subject to an additional branch profits tax equal to 30%, or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty, on a portion of its effectively connected earnings and profits for the taxable year.

 

To claim the benefit of a tax treaty or to claim exemption from withholding on the grounds that income is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, a Non-U.S. Holder must provide a properly executed form, generally on IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or any appropriate successor or replacement forms), as applicable, certifying that it is not a U.S. person as defined under the Code and that it is entitled to benefits under the treaty or, if such Non-U.S. Holder’s common stock is held through certain foreign intermediaries or foreign partnerships, by satisfying the applicable certification and documentation requirements or Form W-8ECI for effectively connected income, or such successor forms as the IRS designates, prior to the payment of dividends.

 

These forms must be periodically updated. Non-U.S. Holders generally may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS.

 

A Non-U.S. Holder eligible for a reduced rate of or exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their entitlement to benefits under an applicable income tax treaty and the specific manner of claiming the benefits of the treaty.

 

Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Shares of Common Stock

 

Subject to the discussions below under “—Information Reporting and Backup Withholding Tax” and “—Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”),” a Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the sale, exchange or other disposition of shares of our Common Stock purchased in this offering unless:

 

the gain is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business of the Non-U.S. Holder (and, if an applicable tax treaty requires, is also attributable to a U.S. “permanent establishment” maintained by such Non-U.S. Holder),

 

in the case of a Non-U.S. Holder who is an individual, such holder is present in the United States for a period or periods aggregating 183 or more days (as calculated for U.S. federal income tax purposes) during the taxable year of the disposition, and certain other conditions are satisfied, or

 

we are or have been a “United States real property holding corporation,” or “USRPHC,” as defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, at any time during the shorter of (i) the five-year period ending on the date of disposition and (ii) the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period for its shares of our Common Stock.

 

Gain described in the first bullet point above will be subject to tax at generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rates in the same manner as gain is taxable to U.S. Holders, unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise. If such Non-U.S. Holder is a foreign corporation, such gain may also be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.

 

11

 

 

An individual Non-U.S. Holder described in the second bullet point above generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a flat rate of 30% (or at a reduced rate under an applicable income tax treaty) on any gain recognized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of our Common Stock, which may be offset by certain U.S.-source capital losses (even though such individual is not considered a resident of the United States).

 

With respect to the third bullet point above, a U.S. corporation is generally a USRPHC if the fair market value of its “United States real property interests” equals or exceeds 50% of the fair market value of its real property and trade or business assets. We believe that we currently are, and expect to remain for the foreseeable future, a USRPHC. However, so long as our Common Stock is regularly traded on an established securities market, under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations, a Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of shares of our Common Stock, unless the Non-U.S. Holder has owned, directly or by attribution, more than 5% of our Common Stock during the shorter of the five-year period preceding the disposition or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period for the shares of our Common Stock (a “greater than 5% stockholder”). If our Common Stock ceases to be regularly traded on an established securities market, all Non-U.S. Holders would be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a sale or other taxable disposition of our Common Stock, and a purchaser may be required to withhold and remit to the IRS 15% of the purchase price, unless an exception applies.

 

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding Tax

 

Payments of dividends on our common stock and the payment of the proceeds from the sale of our Common Stock effected at a U.S. office of a broker will generally not be subject to information reporting, provided the applicable withholding agent does not have actual knowledge or reason to know the Non-U.S. Holder is a United States person and the Non-U.S. Holder either certifies its non-U.S. status, such as by furnishing a valid IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E or other documentation upon which it may rely to treat the payments as made to a non-U.S. person in accordance with Treasury Regulations or otherwise establishes an exemption.

 

However, we are required to file information returns with the IRS in connection with any distribution on our common stock paid to the Non-U.S. Holder, regardless of whether any tax was actually withheld. Copies of information returns that are filed with the IRS may also be made available under the provisions of an applicable treaty or agreement to the tax authorities of the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder resides or is established.

 

Payment of the proceeds from the sale of our Common Stock effected at a foreign office of a broker generally will not be subject to information reporting or backup withholding. However, a sale of our common stock by a Non-U.S. Holder that is effected at a foreign office of a broker will be subject to information reporting and backup withholding if (i) the proceeds are transferred to an account maintained by the Non-U.S. Holder in the United States, (ii) the payment of proceeds or the confirmation of the sale is mailed to the Non-U.S. Holder at a U.S. address, or (iii) the sale has some other specified connection with the United States as provided in the Treasury Regulations, unless, in each case, the broker does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the holder is a United States person and the documentation requirements described above are met or the Non-U.S. Holder otherwise establishes an exemption.

 

In addition, a sale of our Common Stock will be subject to information reporting if it is effected at a foreign office of a broker that is (i) a United States person, (ii) a “controlled foreign corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (iii) a foreign person 50% or more of whose gross income is effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business for a specified three-year period or (iv) a foreign partnership, if at any time during its tax year (a) one or more of its partners are “U.S. persons,” as defined in the Treasury Regulations, who in the aggregate hold more than 50% of the income or capital interest in the partnership or (b) such foreign partnership is engaged in the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, in each case unless the broker does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the holder is a United States person and the documentation requirements described above are met or an exemption is otherwise established. Backup withholding will apply if the sale is subject to information reporting and the broker has actual knowledge that the holder is a United States person.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”)

 

Certain rules may require withholding at a rate of 30% on dividends in respect of our Common Stock (but not on payments of gross proceeds from the sale, exchange, or other disposition of our common stock) held by or through certain foreign financial institutions (including investment funds), unless such institution (i) enters into, and complies with, an agreement with the Treasury Department to report, on an annual basis, information with respect to interests in, and accounts maintained by, the institution to the extent such interests or accounts are held by certain U.S. persons and by certain non-U.S. entities that are wholly or partially owned by U.S. persons and to withhold on certain payments or (ii) complies with an intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country to report such information to its local tax authority, which will exchange such information with the U.S. authorities. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify these requirements. Accordingly, the entity through which our Common Stock is held will affect the determination of whether such withholding is required. Similarly, dividends in respect of our Common Stock held by an investor that is a non-financial non-U.S. entity that does not qualify under certain exemptions will be subject to withholding at a rate of 30%, unless such entity either (i) certifies that such entity does not have any “substantial United States owners” or (ii) provides certain information regarding the entity’s “substantial United States owners,” which we or the applicable withholding agent will in turn provide to the Treasury Department.

 

Withholding under FATCA generally applies to payments of dividends on our shares and to payments of gross proceeds from a sale or other disposition of our shares. Withholding agents may, however, rely on proposed U.S. Treasury Regulations that would no longer require FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds. A withholding agent such as a broker will determine whether or not to implement gross proceeds FATCA withholding.

 

If a dividend payment is subject to withholding both under FATCA and the withholding tax rules discussed above in the section entitled “Distributions”, the withholding under FATCA may be credited against, and therefore reduce, such other withholding tax. Non-U.S. Holders of shares should consult their own tax advisors regarding these requirements and whether they may be relevant to their ownership and disposition of the shares.

 

Under certain circumstances, a Non-U.S. Holder will be eligible for refunds or credits of withholding taxes imposed under FATCA by filing a United States federal income tax return. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the effect of FATCA on their ownership and disposition of our shares.

 

Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the possible implications of FATCA tax on an investment in our Common Stock.

 

THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX DISCUSSION SET FORTH ABOVE IS INCLUDED FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY AND MAY NOT BE APPLICABLE DEPENDING UPON AN INVESTOR’S PARTICULAR SITUATION. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO ALL TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF OUR COMMON STOCK, INCLUDING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES UNDER STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN AND OTHER TAX LAWS, THE APPLICATION OF ANY INCOME TAX TREATIES TO ITS PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES AND THE POSSIBLE EFFECTS OF ANY CHANGES THEREIN.

December 2025 Offering

In addition, the Company agreed to issue to these investors, the Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 961,079 shares of Common Stock. The Warrants have an exercise price of $23.00 per share and will expire two years thereafter. The terms of such Warrants preclude a holder thereof from exercising such holder’s Warrants, and the Company from giving effect to such exercise, if after giving effect to the issuance of Common Stock upon such exercise, the holder (together with the holder’s affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or at the election of the applicable investors, 9.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Common Stock upon such exercise.

 

The Common Stock and Warrants were offered in a private placement under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering 2,883,238 shares of Common Stock, which are comprised of (i) 1,922,159 shares of Common Stock issued to the selling stockholders in connection with a private placement and (ii) 961,079 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants to permit the resale of these shares by the holders of such shares from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We are registering them pursuant to contractual provisions entered into in connection with the private placement. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the selling stockholders of the shares of Common Stock. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the Common Stock.

 

Each selling stockholder of the shares of Common Stock and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of Common Stock covered hereby on NASDAQ or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares of Common Stock are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

privately negotiated transactions;

 

settlement of short sales;

 

in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares of Common Stock at a stipulated price per security;

 

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

 

a combination of any such methods of sale; or

 

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The selling stockholders may also sell shares of Common Stock under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

 

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

 

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

 

18

 

 

The selling stockholders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the 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 Common Stock from time to time pursuant to this prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending, if necessary, the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholder also may transfer and donate the Common Stock in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares of Common Stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares of Common Stock purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each selling stockholder has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.

 

Under the securities laws of some states, the Common Stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the Common Stock may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.

 

There can be no assurance that any selling stockholder will sell any or all of the Common Stock registered pursuant to the Registration Statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the shares of Common Stock. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the Common Stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the selling stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the Common Stock by the selling stockholders or any other person.

NRS Section 78.7502(2) further provides that a corporation 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 or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor 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 corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise or as a manager of a limited liability company, against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if such person: (i) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138; or (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Indemnification pursuant to NRS 78.7502 may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

 

To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (1) and (2) of NRS Section 78.7502, as described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation shall indemnify him or her against expenses including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense.

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(a) (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 the 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% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Filing Fee Tables” or “Calculation of Registration Fee” table, as applicable, 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 the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) above 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 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 of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

 

(i) Each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. 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 first use, 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 date of first use.

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