Company Overview
Our business strategy combines concepts from fractional jet and charter jet programs with innovations in artificial intelligence, also referred to herein is "AI." Our purposeful enhancement of price discovery has the potential to produce fairer and more inclusive results for aircraft owners and travelers alike.
We formed the Company on June 4, 2018. We developed and, in September 2019, launched our booking platform represented by our iOS app JetToken, which originally functioned as a prospecting and quoting platform to arrange private jet travel with third party carriers. Following our acquisition of HondaJets, we began selling jet cards and fractional ownership interests in our aircraft. In 2023, we launched an AI-enhanced booking app called CharterGPT. Beginning in 2023, we launched our Jet.AI Operator Platform to provide a B2B software platform for SaaS products. Currently we offer the following SaaS software to aircraft owners and operators generally:
| ● | Reroute AI: recycles aircraft waiting to return to base into prospective new charter bookings to destinations within specific distances; and | |
| ● | DynoFlight: enables aircraft operators to estimate aircraft emissions then purchase carbon removal credits via our DynoFlight API. |
We have also established a specific version of a private jet by-the-seat booking tool for the Las Vegas Golden Knights and Cirrus Aviation via 380 Software LLC. 380 Software LLC is a by-the-seat charter joint venture between us and Cirrus Aviation.
Our strategy involves expanding our fleet of aircraft with larger aircraft capable of traveling longer distances, developing a national jet card program based on third party aircraft, further enhancing the AI functionality of Charter GPT, and expanding upon our B2B software offerings.

The Business Combination
On August 10, 2023, Jet.AI Inc., a Delaware corporation (f/k/a Oxbridge Acquisition Corp.), consummated a "Business Combination" pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated February 24, 2023, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of May 11, 2023, by and among Oxbridge Acquisition Corp. ("Oxbridge"), the merger subsidiaries identified below and Jet Token. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, Oxbridge redomiciled as a Delaware corporation and was renamed Jet.AI, Inc., and promptly thereafter, (a) OXAC Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Oxbridge ("First Merger Sub") merged with and into Jet Token with Jet Token surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Jet.AI Inc.; and (b) Jet Token merged with and into Summerlin Aviation LLC (f/k/a OXAC Merger Sub II, LLC), a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Oxbridge ("Second Merger Sub") (each merger and all other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the "Business Combination").
The Business Combination resulted in certain securities of Oxbridge and Jet Token being converted into securities of the Company. As a result of the Business Combination and certain actions taken by the Company following the Business Combination, Jet.AI Inc. has one class of common stock, listed on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol "JTAI".
The Selling Stockholder Transaction
General
On March 28, 2024, Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") and certain other transaction documents described below with the Selling Stockholder in connection with a private placement which closed on March 29, 2024 (the "Closing Date"), which we collectively refer to as the "Selling Stockholder Transaction".
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to the Selling Stockholder (a) 150 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, which are convertible into shares of Common Stock, (b) the Warrant to purchase up to 1,500 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $10,000 per share, and (c) 1,111 shares of Common Stock (as adjusted to give effect to the 1-for-225 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding Common Stock effected by the Company on November 12, 2024).
At the initial closing the Company received gross proceeds of approximately $1.5 million, net including customary placement fees and reimbursement of certain amounts payable to Maxim as placement agent and other expenses payable by the Company in connection with the Selling Stockholder Transaction. This amount excludes the proceeds from subsequent exercise of the Warrant. The Company used net proceeds received at the initial closing and subsequent exercises of the Warrant effected as of the date of this prospectus, and, intends to use the proceeds that may result from future exercises of the Warrant by the Selling Stockholder, for working capital, capital expenditures, product development, and other general corporate purposes. The Company has not allocated specific amounts of net proceeds for any of these purposes.
Series B Preferred Stock
On March 28, 2024, we filed a Certificate of Designations of the Series B Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which provides for the issuance of up to 5,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock (the "Certificate of Designations"). The Series B Preferred Stock ranks pari passu with the Company's Series A Preferred Stock and its Series A-1 Preferred Stock and senior to all other capital stock of the Company.
Each share of Series B Preferred Stock converts into a number of shares of our Common Stock, subject to certain limitations, including a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99% (calculated in accordance with the rules promulgated under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act")), which can be adjusted to a beneficial ownership limitation of 9.99% upon 61 days prior written notice by the Selling Stockholder. From time to time the Selling Stockholder may convert Series B Preferred Stock into Common Stock which it may liquidate and thereafter receive additional shares of Common Stock pursuant to subsequent conversions of its Series B Preferred Stock. Although the beneficial ownership limitation imposes a legally binding limitation on the Selling Stockholder's beneficial ownership at any point in time, it does not prohibit the Selling Stockholder from, over time, receiving shares of Common Stock upon separate conversions of its shares of Series B Preferred Stock that, in the aggregate and over a period of time, exceed the beneficial ownership limitation.
Subject to the limitations set forth in the preceding paragraph and provided there is an effective registration statement covering the Selling Stockholder's resale of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock, the shares of Series B Preferred Stock will automatically convert into shares of Common Stock on or prior to the tenth trading day after the issuance date of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a share of Series B Preferred Stock is calculated by dividing the conversion amount per share of Series B Preferred Stock by the then conversion price. The conversion amount is equal to the stated value of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock, which is $10,000, plus any additional amounts and late charges calculated in accordance with the Certificate of Designations. The conversion price is equal to 90% (or, in the case of a delisting, 80%) of the lowest daily volume weighted average price of our Common Stock over a period beginning on the trading day after we deliver shares of Common Stock upon such conversion to the Selling Stockholder and ending on the trading day on which the aggregate dollar trading volume of our Common Stock exceeds seven times the applicable conversion amount, subject to a five-trading day minimum period for such calculation, and subject to certain adjustments.
| 2 |
If certain defined "triggering events" defined in the Certificate of Designations occur, such as a breach of the registration rights agreement entered into with the Selling Stockholder on March 29, 2024 (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), suspension of trading of the Common Stock, or our failure to convert the Series B Preferred Stock into Common Stock when a conversion right is exercised, then we may be required to redeem the Series B Preferred Stock for cash at 110% of its stated value.
The foregoing description of the Series B Preferred Stock does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Designations, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.5 to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part and is incorporated herein by reference.
Other Transaction Documents and Subsequent Agreements
The Warrant exercise price was initially set at $10,000 per share of Series B Preferred Stock, subject to adjustment for certain events, such as stock splits, issuance of additional shares as a dividend or otherwise. If the Warrant is exercised in full for cash, the Company would receive total gross proceeds of approximately $15.0 million from those exercises. As of the date of this prospectus, the Selling Stockholder has partially exercised the Warrant for a total of 150 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $1.5 million. The Company cannot predict when or if additional exercises of the Warrant will be effected. At any time when the Warrant is exercisable for less than 1,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, the Company has the right to redeem all or a portion of the Warrant by paying to the Selling Stockholder in cash $100 per share of Series B Preferred Stock that would otherwise be issuable pursuant to the Warrant.
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to submit to its stockholders a proposal to approve the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with Nasdaq Rules at a special meeting of stockholders at the earliest practicable date after the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement, but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date. At its annual meeting of stockholders, which took place on September 24, 2024, the Company sought stockholder approval for the potential issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Selling Stockholder Transaction in an amount that, upon issuance, could result in the issuance of shares of Common Stock in an amount in excess of 20% of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock at a price less than the "minimum price" as defined by and in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d). The Company's stockholders approved such potential issuance at the annual meeting. The Securities Purchase Agreement obligates the Company to reserve no less than 200% of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock outstanding, using an alternate conversion method. In order to meet that obligation, the Company sought stockholder approval to amend its certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to 200,000,000 at its annual meeting of stockholders. The Company received such approval on September 24, 2024.
Additionally, the Company entered into the Registration Rights Agreement, which, among other things, obligated the Company to register the resale of the 1,111 shares of Common Stock (as adjusted to give effect to the 1-for-225 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding Common Stock effected by the Company on November 12, 2024), the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the 150 shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued at the initial closing, and shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant. The Company was required to prepare and file a registration statement with the SEC no later than 30 days following the filing of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "Form 10-K") but in no event later than May 15, 2024 (the "Filing Failure", and such deadline, the "Filing Deadline"), and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement and any amendment declared effective no later than the earlier of the (a) 60th calendar day following the filing of the Form 10-K (or, if such registration statement is subject to a full review by the SEC, the 100th calendar day after such filing) and (b) 2nd business day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that such registration statement will not be reviewed or will not be subject to further review (the "Effectiveness Deadline"). The Company filed a registration statement on Form S-1 pursuant to the foregoing obligation by the Filing Deadline. Because this registration statement was not declared effective by the SEC by the Effectiveness Deadline, the Company was obligated to pay to the Selling Stockholder a fee of $100,000 (the "Effectiveness Fee"). On September 3, 2024, the Company issued to the Selling Stockholder 444 shares of Common Stock (as adjusted to give effect to the 1-for-225 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding Common Stock effected by the Company on November 12, 2024) in lieu of paying the Effectiveness Fee in cash.
| 3 |
On September 24, 2024, the Company and the Selling Stockholder entered into a letter agreement (the "Letter Agreement") that set forth certain understandings and agreements among the Company and the Selling Stockholder. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Selling Stockholder agreed to refrain from taking action to protect its legal rights under the transaction documents, related to certain actions and transactions identified in the Letter Agreement that the Company had undertaken or effected prior to the date of the Letter Agreement. As consideration for the waiver, the Company agreed to a release of the Selling Stockholder and its affiliates and issued an additional 50 shares of Series B Preferred Stock to the Selling Stockholder.
On October 10, 2024, the Company and the Selling Stockholder entered into a second letter agreement (the "Second Letter Agreement") that set forth certain understandings and agreements among the Company and the Selling Stockholder. Pursuant to the Second Letter Agreement, the Selling Stockholder agreed to refrain from taking action to protect its legal rights under the transaction documents, related to certain actions and transactions identified in the Second Letter Agreement. Such actions include the Company's filing of an amendment to the registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-281911) with the SEC and a registered direct offering. As consideration for the waiver, the Company agreed to change the Conversion Measurement Period (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) for the 200 shares of Series B Preferred Stock then held by the Selling Stockholder to begin on March 28, 2024 and to end in accordance with the Certificate of Designations.
On October 18, 2024, the Company and the Selling Stockholder entered into a third letter agreement (the "Third Letter Agreement") that set forth certain understandings and agreements among the Company and the Selling Stockholder. Pursuant to the Third Letter Agreement, the Selling Stockholder agreed to refrain from taking action to protect its legal rights under the transaction documents, related to certain actions and transactions identified in the Third Letter Agreement. Such actions include the Company's actions related to a transaction that may be effected utilizing the registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-281578). As consideration for the waiver, the Company agreed to change the Conversion Measurement Period (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) for the first 200 shares of Series B Preferred Stock that the Selling Stockholder acquired upon exercise of the Warrant to begin on March 28, 2024 and to end in accordance with the Certificate of Designations.
The Company has also agreed to, among other things, indemnify the Selling Stockholder, its members, managers, directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, representatives and persons who control the Selling Stockholder under the registration statement from certain liabilities and pay all fees and expenses (excluding any underwriting discounts and selling commissions) incident to the Company's obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement.
The securities issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement were not registered under the Securities Act and were offered pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
Copies of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Voting Agreement, the Warrant, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Letter Agreement, the Second Letter Agreement, and the Third Letter Agreement are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 4.5, 10.3, 10.5, 10.6, and 10.7, respectively, to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. The above summary of such agreements and documents does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreements and are incorporated herein by reference herein.
Conversions of Series B Preferred Stock; Partial Warrant Exercises
Starting in October 2024, and through the date of this prospectus, the Selling Stockholder has converted in full the 150 shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued to the Selling Stockholder at the initial closing, and the 50 additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued to the Selling Stockholder in connection with the Letter Agreement. Those conversions, in total, resulted in the issuance of 131,647 shares of Common Stock (as adjusted to give effect to the 1-for-225 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding Common Stock effected by the Company on November 12, 2024).
| 4 |
On October 28, 2024 the Selling Stockholder partially exercised the Warrant, for 150 additional shares of Series B Stock, resulting in total proceeds to the Company of $1.5 million. As a result, as of the date of this prospectus, if the remaining portion of the Warrant is exercised in full it would result in the Company receiving gross proceeds of $13.5 million.
Nasdaq Compliance
Our Common Stock is currently listed on Nasdaq under the symbol "JTAI". On December 1, 2023, the Company received a notification letter (the "Initial Notice Letter") from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff of Nasdaq notifying the Company that its amount of stockholders' equity has fallen below the $10 million required minimum for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(A) (the "Minimum Stockholders' Equity Requirement"). The Company's stockholders' deficit as of December 31, 2023 was $(3,963,039). The Initial Notice Letter also noted that as of September 30, 2023, the Company did not meet The Nasdaq Global Market alternative listing criteria for the "Market Value" standard or the "Total Assets / Total Revenues" standard. On August 14, 2024, the Nasdaq Hearings Panel granted the Company's request to transfer the Company's securities from The Nasdaq Global Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market effective as of the opening of trading on August 16, 2024.
On April 14, 2024, the Company received an additional notification letter from Nasdaq (the "Second Notice Letter") stating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), as the minimum bid price of the Company's Common Stock has been below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days (the "Minimum Bid Price Requirement"). The notification of noncompliance had no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company's Common Stock on Nasdaq. The Company had 180 calendar days, or until October 14, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. To regain compliance, the minimum bid price of the Company's Common Stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during this 180-calendar day grace period. Although the Company did not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by October 14, 2024, it was eligible for an additional 180-calendar day compliance period because it elected to transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company's failure to regain compliance during this period could result in delisting. The Company effected a reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock at a ratio of 225-for-1 on November 12, 2024 to, in part, cause the Company to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
On May 30, 2024, the Company received an additional notification letter from Nasdaq (the "Third Notice Letter") stating that the Company had not regained compliance with the Minimum Stockholders' Equity Requirement for continued listing discussed in the Initial Notice Letter, which it was required to meet by May 29, 2024 pursuant to its compliance plan. The Third Notice Letter notified the Company that, unless the Company requested an appeal hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the "Panel") by June 6, 2024, trading of the Company's Common Stock would be suspended at the opening of business on June 10, 2024, and a Form 25-NSE would be filed with the SEC, which would remove the Company's securities from listing and registration on Nasdaq (such notification, the "Delisting Notice").
As directed in the Third Notice Letter, the Company timely requested a hearing before the Panel to appeal the Delisting Notice. The Delisting Notice had no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company's Common Stock. The Company's hearing request stayed the suspension of trading on the Company's securities, and the Company's securities continued to trade on Nasdaq. On August 14, 2024, in connection the implementation of the Company's compliance plan, the Nasdaq Hearings Panel granted the Company's request to transfer the Company's securities from The Nasdaq Global Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market effective as of August 16, 2024. Further the Nasdaq Hearings Panel granted the Company's request to have until November 26, 2024 to demonstrate compliance with its previously submitted plan, a deadline that the Company believes to be attainable. The Company is working diligently to cure the deficiencies set forth in the Delisting Notice and plans to regain compliance with the continued listing requirements as soon as practicable.
Although the Company believes it will be able to achieve compliance with Nasdaq's continued listing requirements, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with all such requirements, or maintain compliance with any other listing requirements within the time frame required by Nasdaq or at all, particularly if the Company's stock price trades below $1.00 for a sustained period. Nasdaq's determination that we fail to meet the continued listing standards of Nasdaq may result in our securities being delisted from Nasdaq as set forth in the Delisting Notice.

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Shares offered by the Selling Stockholder, except with respect to amounts received by us upon exercise of the Warrant. We will receive up to an aggregate of approximately $15.0 million from the exercise of the Warrant, assuming the exercise in full of the Warrant.

We expect to use proceeds from future exercises of the Warrant, if any, for general corporate and working capital purposes. The exercise price of the Warrant is $10,000 per share of Series B Preferred Stock, subject to adjustment for certain events. See "Use of Proceeds" on page 9 for additional information. |

RISK FACTORS
Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Please see the risk factors under the heading "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, on file with the SEC, and those risk factors identified in reports subsequently filed with the SEC, including our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. Before you invest in our securities, you should carefully consider these risks as well as other information we include or incorporate by reference into this prospectus. All of these risk factors are incorporated herein in their entirety. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business operations. The occurrence of any of these risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment in the offered securities. The discussion of risks includes or refers to forward-looking statements; you should read the explanation of the qualifications and limitations on such forward-looking statements discussed elsewhere in this prospectus. For more information, see "Where You Can Find More Information."

Risks Related to This Offering
The Selling Stockholder may choose to sell the Shares at prices below the current market price of our Common Stock.
The Selling Stockholder is not restricted as to the prices at which it may sell or otherwise dispose of the Shares covered by this prospectus. Sales or other dispositions of the Shares below the then-current market price of the Common Stock could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.
Resales of our Common Stock in the public market by our stockholders as a result of this offering may cause the market price of our Common Stock to fall.
We are registering Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock issued, or issuable, as part of the Selling Stockholder Transaction. Sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales might occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. The issuance of new shares of Common Stock could result in resales of our Common Stock by our current stockholders concerned about the potential ownership dilution of their holdings. Furthermore, in the future, we may issue additional shares of Common Stock or other equity or debt securities exercisable or convertible into Common Stock. Any such issuance could result in substantial dilution to our existing stockholders and could cause our stock price to decline.
We will have broad discretion as to the proceeds that we receive from the cash exercise by any holder of the Warrant, and we may not use the proceeds effectively.
We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares by the Selling Stockholder pursuant to this prospectus. In total, we may receive up to approximately $15.0 million in aggregate gross proceeds from cash exercises of the Warrant and to the extent that we receive such proceeds, we intend to use the net proceeds from cash exercises of the Warrant for working capital and general corporate purposes. To date, the Selling Stockholder has partially exercised the Warrant for 150 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, resulting in additional gross proceeds to the Company of $1.5 million. Our management will have broad discretion in the application of such proceeds, including for any of the purposes described in the section entitled "Use of Proceeds," and we could spend the proceeds in ways our stockholders may not agree with or that do not yield a favorable return, if at all. You will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether such proceeds are being used in a manner agreeable to you. You will be relying on the judgment of our management concerning these uses and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. The failure of our management to apply these funds effectively could result in unfavorable returns and uncertainty about our prospects, each of which could cause the price of our Common Stock to decline.
You may experience future dilution as a result of issuance of certain of the securities issued in connection with the Selling Stockholder Transaction, future equity offerings by us and other issuances of our Common Stock or other securities. In addition, the issuance of such securities and future equity offerings and other issuances of our Common Stock or other securities may adversely affect our Common Stock price.
The Shares will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. As a result, a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock may be sold in the public market following this offering. If there are significantly more shares of our Common Stock offered for sale than buyers are willing to purchase, then the market price of our Common Stock may decline to a market price at which buyers are willing to purchase the offered Common Stock and sellers remain willing to sell our Common Stock. The issuance of the Shares or any future sales of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could also adversely affect the price of our Common Stock. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of those shares of Common Stock or the availability of those shares for sale will have on the market price of our Common Stock.
In addition, in order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of our Common Stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our Common Stock at prices that may not be the same as the price per share as prior issuances of Common Stock. We may not be able to sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is equal to or greater than the price per share previously paid by investors, and investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock in future transactions may be higher or lower than the prices per share. In addition, the exercise price of the Warrant for the Warrant Shares may be lesser or greater than the price per share previously paid by certain investors. You will incur dilution upon exercise of any outstanding stock options, warrants or upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock under our stock incentive programs. In addition, the issuance of the Shares and any future sales of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the price of our Common Stock. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of those shares of Common Stock or the availability of those shares for sale will have on the market price of our Common Stock.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The Selling Stockholder identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their Shares or other Company securities after the date on which they provided us with information regarding such securities. Moreover, the Shares identified below include only the Shares being registered for resale and may not incorporate all shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company deemed to be beneficially held by the Selling Stockholder.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Selling Stockholder, which as used in this prospectus includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling Shares or interests in Shares received after the date of this prospectus from the Selling Stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Shares covered hereby on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the Shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling the Shares, unless it is contractually bound not to:
| ● | ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; |
| 10 |
| ● | 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 Stockholder to sell a specified number of Shares 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 Stockholder may also sell the Shares 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 Stockholder may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of the Shares, 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 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.
In connection with the sale of the Shares or interests therein, the Selling Stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Shares in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholder may also sell Shares short and deliver these Shares to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the Shares to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these Shares. The Selling Stockholder 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).
The Selling Stockholder and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the Shares 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 purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Stockholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Shares.
The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the Shares. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholder against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
| 11 |
We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the Shares may be resold by the Selling Stockholder without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, without the requirement for us to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the Shares have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The Shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the Shares covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
Compliance with the Exchange Act, including Regulation M
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the Shares 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 Stockholder 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 Stockholder or any other person.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Under Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL"), a corporation has the power to indemnify its directors and officers under certain prescribed circumstances and, subject to certain limitations, against certain costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, to which any of them is a party by reason of his being a director or officer of the corporation if it is determined that he acted in accordance with the applicable standard of conduct set forth in such statutory provision. In addition, a corporation may advance expenses incurred by a director or officer in defending a proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking from such person to repay any amount so advanced if it is ultimately determined that such person is not eligible for indemnification. The registrant's certificate of incorporation provides that, pursuant to the DGCL, the registrant's directors shall not be liable for monetary damages to the fullest extent authorized under applicable law. This provision in the registrant's certificate of incorporation does not eliminate the duty of care, and in appropriate circumstances equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware law. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director's duty of loyalty, for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or knowing violations of the law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the director, and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under Delaware law. The provision also does not affect a director's responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.
Article VI of the registrant's bylaws provides that the registrant will indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, 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, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a "Proceeding") (other than an action by or in the right of the registrant) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the registrant, or is or was a director or officer of the registrant serving at the request of the registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such 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 registrant, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person's conduct was unlawful.
In addition to the above, the registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of the registrant's directors and officers. These indemnification agreements provide the registrant's directors and officers with the same indemnification and advancement of expenses as described above and provide that our directors and officers will be indemnified to the fullest extent authorized by any future Delaware law that expands the permissible scope of indemnification. The registrant also has directors' and officers' liability insurance, which provides coverage against certain liabilities that may be incurred by the registrant's directors and officers in their capacities as directors and officers of the registrant.

Item 17. Undertakings.
| (a) | 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.

(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)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(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 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)(1)(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;
(5) 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;
(6) 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.
