VERB Verb Technology Company Inc

Description of the Common Stock Purchase Agreement

On January 12, 2022, we entered into the Common Stock Purchase Agreement with the Investor pursuant to which we have the right, but not the obligation, to sell to the Investor up to the Total Commitment, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth therein. As consideration for the Investor’s commitment to purchase shares of Common Stock upon the terms of and subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in agreement, concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to the Investor 607,287 Commitment Shares. The Company has also agreed to reimburse the Investor for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the Equity Offering (including its legal fees and expenses), up to a maximum of $50,000.

Purchase and Sale of Common Stock

Upon the initial satisfaction of the conditions to our right to commence sales of our Common Stock to the Investor set forth in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement (such event, the “Commencement”), we will have the right, but not the obligation, from time to time at our sole discretion over the 36-month period from and after the date of the Commencement (the “Commencement Date”), subject to earlier termination as set forth in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, to direct the Investor to make dollar volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) purchases of our Common Stock as further described under the agreement (each, a “VWAP Purchase”) by delivering a VWAP Purchase notice on any trading day. We may not deliver any VWAP Purchase notice to the Investor unless at least three trading days has elapsed since the date on which the most recent prior notice for a VWAP Purchase was delivered by us to the Investor.

The purchase price of the shares of Common Stock that we elect to sell to the Investor pursuant to a VWAP Purchase will be determined by reference to the lowest daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock during the three-consecutive-trading-day period immediately following the date on which we timely deliver the applicable VWAP Purchase notice for such VWAP Purchase to the Investor (the “VWAP Purchase Valuation Period”) as set forth in the agreement, less a fixed 6.0% discount. There is no upper limit on the price per share that the Investor could be obligated to pay for the Common Stock under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement. The purchase price per share of Common Stock to be sold in a VWAP Purchase will be equitably adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction occurring during the applicable VWAP Purchase Valuation Period, respectively, used to compute the purchase price per share for such purchase, provided that the Investor’s maximum financial commitment in any single VWAP Purchase shall not exceed $25,000,000.

From and after Commencement, we will control the timing and amount of any sales of Common Stock to the Investor. Actual sales of shares of our Common Stock to the Investor under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by us from time to time, including, among other things, market conditions, the trading price of the common stock, and determinations by the Company as to the appropriate sources of funding for the Company and its operations. We may ultimately decide to sell to the Investor all, some, or none of the shares of our common stock that may be available for us to sell pursuant to the agreement.

Beneficial Ownership Limitation

The Common Stock Purchase Agreement also prohibits us from directing the Investor to purchase any shares of our Common Stock if those shares, when aggregated with all other shares of our Common Stock then beneficially owned by the Investor (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rule 13d-3 thereunder) would result in the Investor beneficially owning more than 4.99% of our issued outstanding Common Stock (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). The Beneficial Ownership Limitation may be raised or lowered to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% at the option of the Investor, except that any change will only be effective upon 61-days’ prior written notice to us.

Exchange Cap

Under applicable Nasdaq rules, in no event may we issue to the Investor under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement more than 14,747,065 shares of our common stock (including the Commitment Shares), which number of shares equals the Exchange Cap, unless we obtain stockholder approval to issue shares of Common Stock in excess of the Exchange Cap, or unless the average per share purchase price paid by the Investor for all shares of Common Stock sold under the agreement equals or exceeds the Base Price (as defined in the agreement), in which case the Exchange Cap limitation will not apply under applicable Nasdaq rules.

Proceeds

Because the purchase price per share to be paid by the Investor for the shares of Common Stock that we may elect to sell under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, if any, will fluctuate based on the market prices of our Common Stock during the applicable VWAP Purchase Valuation Period for each VWAP Purchase made, as of the date of this prospectus it is not possible for us to predict the number of shares of Common Stock that we will sell to the Investor thereunder, the actual purchase price per share to be paid by the Investor for such shares, or the actual gross proceeds to be raised by us from those sales, if any.

As of January 12, 2022, there were 74,342,653 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding, which includes the 607,287 Commitment Shares we issued to the Investor, but excludes the shares of Common Stock we may, in our sole discretion, sell to the Investor from time to time from and after the Commencement Date pursuant to the agreement. Further, although the Common Stock Purchase Agreement provides that we may issue and sell up to an aggregate of $50,000,000 of our Common Stock to the Investor, only 14,747,065 shares of our Common Stock (representing the maximum number of shares we may issue and sell under the agreement in light of the Exchange Cap limitation) may be sold to the Investor and are being registered for resale under this prospectus, which includes the Commitment Shares. If all of the shares offered under this prospectus were issued and outstanding as of January 12, 2022, such shares would represent approximately 16.67% of the total number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding as of January 12, 2022.

If, after the Commencement Date, we elect to sell to the Investor all of the shares of Common Stock (in addition to the Commitment Shares) that are available for sale by us to the Investor under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement and that are being registered for resale under this prospectus, depending on the market prices of our Common Stock during the applicable VWAP Purchase Valuation Period for each VWAP Purchase made pursuant to the agreement, the actual gross proceeds from the sale of all such shares may be substantially less than the $50,000,000 Total Commitment less the $750,000 value of the Commitment Shares available to us under the agreement.

If it becomes necessary for us to issue and sell to the Investor more shares than are being registered for resale under this prospectus in order to receive aggregate gross proceeds equal to the Total Commitment of $50,000,000, we must first (i) obtain stockholder approval to issue shares of Common Stock in excess of the Exchange Cap in accordance with applicable Nasdaq rules, unless the average per share purchase price paid by the Investor for all shares of Common Stock sold under the agreement equals or exceeds the Base Price (as defined in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement), in which case the Exchange Cap limitation will not apply under applicable Nasdaq rules, and (ii) file with the SEC one or more additional registration statements to register under the Securities Act the resale by the Investor of any such additional shares of our Common Stock we wish to sell from time to time under the agreement, which the SEC must declare effective, in each case before we may elect to sell any additional shares of our Common Stock to the Investor under the agreement. Any issuance and sale by us under the agreement of a substantial amount of shares of Common Stock in addition to the 14,747,065 shares of our Common Stock being registered for resale hereunder could cause additional substantial dilution to our stockholders. The number of shares of our Common Stock ultimately offered for sale by the Investor is dependent upon the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, we ultimately sell to the Investor under the agreement.

The proceeds from sales, if any, under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, will depend on the frequency and prices at which we sell shares of Common Stock to the Investor. To the extent we sell shares under the agreement, we plan to use any proceeds therefrom for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including the promotion, marketing, and expansion of the Company’s MARKET platform.

Conditions Precedent to Commencement and For Delivery of VWAP Purchase Notices

Our right to deliver VWAP Purchase notices to the Investor under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, and the Investor’s obligation to accept VWAP Purchase notices delivered by us, are subject to (i) the initial satisfaction, at the Commencement, and (ii) the satisfaction, on the applicable VWAP Purchase Exercise Date for each VWAP Purchase after the Commencement Date, of the conditions precedent thereto set forth in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, which conditions include the following:

Covenants

The Common Stock Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, conditions and indemnification obligations of the parties. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in such agreements were made only for purposes of such agreements and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreements, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.

Restrictions

There are no restrictions on future financings, rights of first refusal, participation rights, penalties or liquidated damages in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, other than a prohibition on entering into a “Variable Rate Transaction,” as defined in the agreement. The Investor has agreed not to cause, or engage in any manner whatsoever, any direct or indirect short selling or hedging of the Common Stock during the term of the agreement.

Termination

The Common Stock Purchase Agreement will automatically terminate upon the earliest of (i) the expiration of the 36-month period following the Commencement Date, (ii) the Investor’s purchase of the Total Commitment worth of Common Stock, or (iii) the occurrence of certain other events set forth in the agreement.

We have the right to terminate the agreement at any time after Commencement, at no cost or penalty, upon five trading days’ prior written notice to the Investor.

The Investor has the right to terminate the agreement upon five trading days’ prior written notice to us, but only upon the occurrence of certain events, including:

No termination of the Common Stock Purchase Agreement by us or by the Investor will become effective prior to the first trading day immediately following the applicable settlement date related to any pending VWAP Purchase that has not been fully settled in accordance with the terms and conditions of the agreement, and will not affect any of our respective rights and obligations under the agreement with respect to any pending VWAP Purchase, and both we and the Investor have agreed to complete our respective obligations with respect to any such VWAP Purchase under the agreement.

Existing Stockholders; Dilution

The issuance of our Common Stock to the Investor pursuant to the Common Stock Purchase Agreement will not affect the rights or privileges of our existing stockholders, except that the economic and voting interests of each of our existing stockholders will be diluted. Although the number of shares of our Common Stock that our existing stockholders own will not decrease, the shares of our Common Stock owned by our existing stockholders will represent a smaller percentage of our total outstanding shares of our Common Stock after any such issuance. There are substantial risks to our stockholders as a result of the sale and issuance of Common Stock to the Investor under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement. For additional information, refer to the sections of this prospectus supplement entitled “Risk Factors” and “Dilution.”

The Note Offering

We are offering pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement the Notes in the aggregate original principal amount of $6,300,000, which shall be convertible into shares of our Common Stock. The Notes are being sold pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

The following is a description of the material terms of the Notes and the Securities Purchase Agreement. It does not purport to be complete. This summary is subject to and is qualified by reference to all the provisions of the Notes and the Securities Purchase Agreement, including the definitions of certain terms used therein. We urge you to read these documents because they, and not this description, define your rights as a holder of the Notes. You may request copies of your Note, the Securities Purchase Agreement, and ancillary documents related to the Note Offering as set forth under the section entitled “Where You Can Find Additional Information.”

Description of the Notes; Ranking

At the closing of the Note Offering, we will issue the Notes as a senior secured obligation of the Company under the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Notes will be issued at a 5.0% original issue discount, and will be issued in certificated form and not as global securities. The Notes will be senior to all other indebtedness of the Company and of any of our subsidiaries (subject to certain permitted liens).

Maturity Date

Unless earlier converted or redeemed, the Notes will mature on January 12, 2023, the one-year anniversary of its issuance date (the “Maturity Date”), provided, each holder of a Note may, at its option, extend the Maturity Date of its Note if (i) an event of default under the Note has occurred and is continuing (or any event shall have occurred and be continuing that with the passage of time and the failure to cure would result in an event of default under the Notes), or (ii) for a period of 20 business days after the consummation of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement) if certain events occur.

We are required to pay, on the Maturity Date, all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest and accrued and unpaid late charges on such principal and interest, if any.

Principal

On the 120-day anniversary of the issuance date and each 30-day anniversary of the issuance date thereafter, we shall pay in cash to the holders of the Notes the Mandatory Prepayment Amount (as defined in the Notes) through the Maturity Date.

Interest

The Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 6.0% per annum except upon the occurrence (and during the continuance) of an event of default (see the section entitled “Events of Default” below). After the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, the Notes will accrue interest at the rate of 18.0% per annum. The interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and twelve 30-day months, and shall be payable in arrears on the first trading day of each calendar month commencing with the calendar month ending 120 days after the closing date or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Note. If the holder elects to convert or redeem all or any portion of the Notes prior to the Maturity Date, all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount being converted or redeemed will also be payable. If we elect to redeem all or any portion of the Notes prior to the Maturity Date, all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount will also be payable.

Late Charges

We are required to pay a late charge of 18.0% on any amount of principal or other amounts that are not paid when due.

Conversion

Fixed Conversions at Option of Holder

A Note holder may convert all, or any part, of the outstanding principal and interest of its Note, at any time at such holder’s option, into shares of our Common Stock at the initial fixed conversion price of $3.00, which is subject to proportional adjustment upon the occurrence of any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, or similar transaction. All of the shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration upon issuance.

Voluntary Adjustment Right

Subject to the rules and regulations of Nasdaq, we have the right, at any time with the written consent of the a Note holder, to lower the fixed conversion price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by our board of directors.

Adjusted Conversion Price at Option of Holder

If we sell or enter into any agreement to issue or sell, any Common Stock, options or convertible securities that are issuable pursuant to such agreement or convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock at a price which varies or may vary with the market price of the shares of Common Stock, including by way of one or more reset(s) to a Variable Price, a Note holder may convert all, or any part, of the outstanding principal and interest of the Note, at any time at such holder’s option, into shares of our Common Stock at the Variable Price.

Alternate Event-of-Default Optional Conversion

If an event of default has occurred under a Note, the holder may alternatively elect to convert the Note at an Alternate Conversion Price equal to 90% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price of our Common Stock during the ten trading days immediately prior to such conversion.

Beneficial Ownership Limitation on Conversion

A Note may not be converted and shares of Common Stock may not be issued under the Note if, after giving effect to the conversion or issuance, the holder of Note (together with its affiliates, if any) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock (the “Note Blocker”). The Note Blocker may be raised or lowered to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% at the option of the holder of Note, except that any change will only be effective upon 61-days’ prior written notice to us.

Fundamental Transactions

The Notes prohibit us from entering specified fundamental transactions (including, without limitation, mergers, business combinations and similar transactions) unless we (or our successor) is a public company that assumes in writing all of our obligations under the Notes.

Change-of-Control Redemption Right

In connection with a change of control of the Company, the holders of the Notes may require us to redeem in cash all, or any portion, of the Notes at a 10.0% redemption premium to the greater of the face value, the equity value of our Common Stock underlying the Notes and the equity value of the change of control consideration payable to the holder of our Common Stock underlying the Notes.

The equity value of our Common Stock underlying the Notes is calculated using the greatest closing sale price of our Common Stock during the period immediately preceding the consummation or the public announcement of the change of control and ending the date the holder gives notice of such redemption.

The equity value of the change of control consideration payable to the holder of our Common Stock underlying the Notes is calculated using the aggregate cash consideration per share of our Common Stock to be paid to the holders of our Common Stock upon the change of control.

Covenants

The Notes contain a variety of obligations on our part not to engage in specified activities, which are typical for transactions of this type, as well as the following covenants:

Events of Default

The Notes contain standard and customary events of default including but not limited: (i) the suspension from trading or the failure to list our Common Stock within certain time periods; (ii) failure to make payments when due under the Note; and (iii) bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company.

If an event of default occurs, the holders may require us to redeem all or any portion of the Notes (including all accrued and unpaid interest and late charges thereon), in cash, at a 10.0% redemption premium to the greater of the face value and the equity value of our Common Stock underlying the Notes.

The equity value of our Common Stock underlying the Notes is calculated using the greatest closing sale price of our Common Stock on any trading day immediately preceding such event of default and the date we make the entire payment required.

Subsequent Placement Option Redemption Right of Holder

If we consummate a subsequent public or private offering of securities of the Company, including, without limitation, any equity security or any equity-linked or related security, any convertible securities, any debt, any preferred stock or any purchase rights (each referred to herein as a subsequent placement), the holders of Notes may require us to use up to 15.0% of the gross proceeds of such subsequent placement to redeem in cash all, or any portion, of the Notes.

Company Optional Redemption Rights

At any time no event of default exists, we may redeem all or any portion of the Notes outstanding in cash a 10.0% redemption premium to the greater of the face value and the equity value of our Common Stock underlying the Note.

The equity value of our Common Stock underlying the Notes is calculated using the greatest closing sale price of our Common Stock on any trading day during the period commencing on the date immediately preceding such date we notify the applicable holder of such redemption election and the date we make the entire payment required.

The Company may deliver no more than one such redemption notice during any 20-trading-day period.

Changes to the Notes

The Notes may not be changed or amended without the prior written consent of the holder of such Note.

Reports

We have agreed to send the following to each Investor during the Reporting Period (as such terms are defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement):

Calculations in Respect of the Note

We will be responsible for making all calculations called for under the Notes. These calculations include, but are not limited to, determinations of the prices of our Common Stock, the conversion price of the Note, accrued interest payable on the Note, the number of shares of our Common Stock issuable in connection with payments of principal, and interest under the Note. We will make all these calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, our calculations will be final and binding on the holder of the Note.

Form, Denomination and Registration

The Notes will be issued (i) in certificated form and (ii) in minimum denominations of $1,000 principal amount and whole multiples of $1,000.

Governing Law

The Notes will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of New York without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following is a summary of all material characteristics of our capital stock as set forth in our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or Articles of Incorporation, and our Amended and Restated Bylaws, or Bylaws. The summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to our Articles of Incorporation and our Bylaws, and to the provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes, or the NRS. We encourage you to review complete copies of our Articles of Incorporation and our Bylaws. You can obtain copies of these documents by following the directions outlined in “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation of Certain Information by Reference” elsewhere in this prospectus.

Authorized Capital Stock

Our authorized capital stock consists of 200,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, and 15,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of which 6,000 shares have been designated Series A Preferred Stock. As of January 14, 2021, we had 48,392,483 shares of common stock outstanding and 1,856 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding.

Common Stock

All outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and nonassessable. The following summarizes the rights of holders of our common stock:

Preferred Stock

All of the preferred stock authorized in our articles of incorporation is undesignated. Our board of directors is authorized, without further approval from our stockholders, to create one or more series of preferred stock, and to designate the rights, privileges, preferences, restrictions, and limitations of any given series of preferred stock. Accordingly, our board of directors may, without stockholder approval, issue shares of preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of restricting dividends payable to holders of our common stock, diluting the voting power of our common stock, impairing the liquidation rights of our common stock, or delaying or preventing a change in control of us, all without further action by our stockholders. The following is a summary of the terms and conditions of the Series A Preferred Stock.

Series A Preferred Stock

The rights and preferences of the Series A Preferred Stock are outlined below.

Rank and Liquidation Preference

Shares of Series A Preferred Stock rank prior to our common stock as to distribution of assets upon liquidation events, which include a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, whether voluntary or involuntary. The liquidation preference of each share of Series A Preferred Stock is equal to $1,000.00, or the Stated Value, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock and any other fees or liquidated damages then due and owing under the Certificate of Designation of Rights, Preferences, and Restrictions of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, or the Certificate of Designations. If the assets are insufficient to pay in full such amounts, then the entire assets to be distributed to the holders of our Series A Preferred Stock shall be distributed pro rata among the holders of our Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full.

Dividend Rights

The holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive lawful dividends as may be declared by our board of directors.

Optional Conversion Rights

Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder into shares of our common stock at any time. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into the number of shares of common stock as calculated by dividing the Stated Value of such share of Series A Preferred Stock by the conversion price. The conversion price was initially $1.55 per share of Series A Preferred Stock, which conversion price was subsequently adjusted to $1.10 per share and is subject to further adjustment; therefore, each share of Series A Preferred Stock was initially convertible into approximately 645 shares of common stock and after adjustment of the conversion price to $1.10 per share, each share of Series A convertible stock is now convertible into approximately 909 shares of common stock, which number is equal to the quotient of the Stated Value of the Series A Preferred Stock of $1,000.00 divided by the conversion price of $1.10 per share of Series A Preferred Stock. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares are to be issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock. As to any fraction of share that the holder of Series A Preferred Stock would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon conversion, we shall, at our election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the conversion price, or round up to the next whole share.

The holders of Series A Preferred Stock cannot convert the Series A Preferred Stock if, after giving effect to the conversion, the number of shares of our common stock beneficially held by the holder (together with such holder’s affiliates) would be in excess of 4.99% (or, upon election by a holder prior to the issuance of any shares, 9.99% of the number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of any shares of common stock issuance upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock held by the holder).

We are also prevented from issuing shares of our common stock upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock or exercise of the August Warrants (as defined below), which, when aggregated with any shares of our common stock issued on or after the issuance date and prior to such conversion date or exercise date, as applicable (i) in connection with any conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock issued pursuant to that certain securities purchase agreement entered into on August 14, 2019 by and among us and the investors thereto, or SPA, (ii) in connection with the exercise of any August Warrants issued pursuant to the SPA, and (iii) in connection with the exercise of any warrants issued to any registered broker-dealer as a fee in connection with the issuance of the securities pursuant to the SPA, would exceed 4,459,725 shares of common stock, or 19.99% Cap. This prohibition will terminate upon the approval by our stockholders of a release from such 19.99% Cap.

Mandatory Conversion Rights

In the event the closing price on The Nasdaq Capital Market is 100% greater than the then-base conversion price on each trading day for any twenty trading days during a consecutive thirty trading day period, we may, within one trading day after the later of stockholder approval to issue a number of shares of common stock in excess of the 19.99% Cap and the date that the conversion shares registration statement filed by us with the SEC declared effective, notify each holder of Series A Preferred Stock that all or part of such holder’s Series A Preferred Stock, plus all liquidated damages and other amounts due, were converted into shares of common stock. Any mandatory conversion will be made into the number of shares of common stock determined on the same basis as the optional conversion rights above.

Conversion Price Adjustments

The conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock is subject to certain customary adjustments, including upon certain subsequent equity sales and rights offerings. The conversion price is also subject to downward adjustments if we issue shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock, other than specified excluded securities, at per share prices less than the then-base conversion price. In this event, the conversion price shall be reduced to then-base conversion price.

The conversion price is also subject to adjustment if we issue rights, options, or warrants to holders of common stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of common stock at a price per share that is lower than the volume weighted average price on the date for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, option, or warrants. In this event, the conversion price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the denominator is the number of shares of common stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights, options, or warrants plus the number of additional shares of common stock offered for subscription or purchase, and the numerator shall be the number of shares of common stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights, options, or warrants plus the number of shares that the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered would purchase at such volume weighted average price.

If we distribute to holders of common stock evidences of our indebtedness or assets, including cash and cash dividends, or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, subject to certain limitations, then the conversion price shall be adjusted by multiplying the conversion price then in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the volume weighted average price determined as of the record date, and of which the numerator shall be the volume weighted average price on such record date less the then fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness or rights or warrants so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of our common stock as determined by our board of directors in good faith.

In the event of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined below) while the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to receive, for each share of common stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of our Series A Preferred Stock that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of us, if we are the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration receivable as a result of the Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of common stock for which the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction. A “Fundamental Transaction” is defined as any time while the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding (a) we, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions shall effect any merger or consolidation of us with or into another person, (b) we, directly or indirectly, effect any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance, or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets in one or a series of related transactions, (c) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer, or exchange offer (whether by us or another person) is completed pursuant to which holders of our common stock are permitted to sell, tender, or exchange their shares for other securities, cash, or property and has been accepted by the holders of a majority of the outstanding common stock, (d) we, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effect any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of our common stock or any compulsory share exchange, pursuant to which the common stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (e) we, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummate a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, or scheme of arrangement) with another person, whereby such other person acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of common stock (not including any shares of common stock held by the other person or other persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination).

Voting Rights and Protective Provisions

The holders of Series A Preferred Stock have no voting rights. However, we cannot, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock:

As long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, unless the holders of at least 75% in Stated Value of the then-outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock have otherwise given prior written consent, we cannot, directly or indirectly:

Reservation of Shares

We initially were required to reserve 3,245,162 shares of common stock for issuance upon conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and are required to maintain a sufficient number of reserved shares of common stock to allow for the conversion of all shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

Undesignated Preferred Stock

The ability to authorize undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to acquire us. These and other provisions may have the effect of deferring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of us.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Nevada Law and Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws

Some provisions of Nevada law, our articles of incorporation, and our bylaws contain provisions that could make the following transactions more difficult: an acquisition of us by means of a tender offer; an acquisition of us by means of a proxy contest or otherwise; or the removal of our incumbent officers and directors. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish or could deter transactions that stockholders may otherwise consider to be in their best interest or in our best interests, including transactions that provide for payment of a premium over the market price for our shares.

These provisions, summarized below, are intended to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits of the increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure us outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging these proposals because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

Undesignated Preferred Stock. The ability of our board of directors, without action by the stockholders, to issue up to 14,994,000 shares of preferred stock, which was previously authorized but remain undesignated, other than the Series A Preferred Stock, with voting or other rights or preferences as designated by our board of directors could impede the success of any attempt to change control of us. These and other provisions may have the effect of deferring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of us.

Stockholder Meetings. Our bylaws provide that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by our president, by all of the directors provided that there are no more than three directors, or if more than three, by any three directors, or by the holder of a majority of our capital stock.

Stockholder Action by Written Consent. Our bylaws allow for any action that may be taken at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders to be taken without a meeting and without prior notice, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.

Stockholders Not Entitled to Cumulative Voting. Our bylaws do not permit stockholders to cumulate their votes in the election of directors. Accordingly, the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors can elect all of the directors standing for election, if they choose, other than any directors that holders of our preferred stock may be entitled to elect.

Nevada Business Combination Statutes. The “business combination” provisions of Sections 78.411 to 78.444, inclusive, of the NRS, generally prohibit a Nevada corporation with at least 200 stockholders from engaging in various “combination” transactions with any interested stockholder for a period of two years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the transaction is approved by the board of directors prior to the date the interested stockholder obtained such status or the combination is approved by the board of directors and thereafter is approved at a meeting of the stockholders by the affirmative vote of stockholders representing at least 60% of the outstanding voting power held by disinterested stockholders, and extends beyond the expiration of the two-year period, unless:

A “combination” is generally defined to include mergers or consolidations or any sale, lease exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer, or other disposition, in one transaction or a series of transactions, with an “interested stockholder” having: (a) an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of the assets of the corporation, (b) an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of all outstanding shares of the corporation, (c) 10% or more of the earning power or net income of the corporation, and (d) certain other transactions with an interested stockholder or an affiliate or associate of an interested stockholder.

In general, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns (or within two years, did own) 10% or more of a corporation’s voting stock. The statute could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change in control attempts and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire us even though such a transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their stock at a price above the prevailing market price.

Nevada Control Share Acquisition Statutes. The “control share” provisions of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793, inclusive, of the NRS apply to “issuing corporations” that are Nevada corporations with at least 200 stockholders, including at least 100 stockholders of record who are Nevada residents, and that conduct business directly or indirectly in Nevada. The control share statute prohibits an acquirer, under certain circumstances, from voting its shares of a target corporation’s stock after crossing certain ownership threshold percentages, unless the acquirer obtains approval of the target corporation’s disinterested stockholders. The statute specifies three thresholds: one-fifth or more but less than one-third, one-third but less than a majority, and a majority or more, of the outstanding voting power. Generally, once an acquirer crosses one of the above thresholds, those shares in an offer or acquisition and acquired within 90 days thereof become “control shares” and such control shares are deprived of the right to vote until disinterested stockholders restore the right. These provisions also provide that if control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person has acquired a majority or more of all voting power, all other stockholders who do not vote in favor of authorizing voting rights to the control shares are entitled to demand payment for the fair value of their shares in accordance with statutory procedures established for dissenters’ rights.

A corporation may elect to not be governed by, or “opt out” of, the control share provisions by making an election in its articles of incorporation or bylaws, provided that the opt-out election must be in place on the 10th day following the date an acquiring person has acquired a controlling interest, that is, crossing any of the three thresholds described above. We have not opted out of the control share statutes, and will be subject to these statutes if we are an “issuing corporation” as defined in such statutes.

The effect of the Nevada control share statutes is that the acquiring person, and those acting in association with the acquiring person, will obtain only such voting rights in the control shares as are conferred by a resolution of the stockholders at an annual or special meeting. The Nevada control share law, if applicable, could have the effect of discouraging takeovers of us.

Amendment of Charter Provisions. The amendment of any of the above provisions would require approval by holders of at least a majority of the total voting power of all of our outstanding voting stock.

The provisions of Nevada law, our articles of incorporation, and our bylaws could have the effect of discouraging others from attempting hostile takeovers and, as a consequence, they may also inhibit temporary fluctuations in the market price of our common stock that often result from actual or rumored hostile takeover attempts. These provisions may also have the effect of preventing changes in the composition of our board of directors and management. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that stockholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interests.

Outstanding Warrants

Listed Common Stock Purchase Warrants

Exercisability. The warrants are exercisable immediately upon issuance and at any time for the five-year period from the date of issuance. The warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of shares of our common stock purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise as discussed below).

Cashless Exercise. In the event that a registration statement covering shares of our common stock underlying the warrants is not available for the resale of such shares of our common stock underlying the warrants, the holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise the warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of our common stock determined according to the formula set forth in the warrant. In no event will we be required to make any cash payments or net cash settlement to the registered holder in lieu of issuing shares of our common stock underlying the warrants.

Exercise Price. The initial exercise price per-whole share of our common stock purchasable upon exercise of the warrants is $3.443, or 110% of the effective offering price. The exercise price is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits stock combinations, reclassifications, or similar events affecting our common stock and also upon any distribution of assets, including cash, stock, or other property to our stockholders.

Transferability. Subject to applicable laws, the warrants may be transferred at the option of the holders upon surrender of the warrants together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.

Exchange Listing. The warrants are listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “VERBW.” Trading commenced at the open of the market on April 5, 2019. We cannot provide assurances that a trading market for the warrants will develop or be maintained.

Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while the warrants are outstanding, (a) we consolidate or merge with or into another corporation and we are not the surviving corporation, (b) we sell, lease, license, assign, transfer, convey, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets, (c) any purchase offer, tender offer, or exchange offer (whether by us or another individual or entity) is completed pursuant to which holders of shares of our common stock are permitted to sell, tender, or exchange their shares of our common stock for our other securities, cash, or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding shares of our common stock, (d) we effect any reclassification or recapitalization of shares of our common stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the shares of our common stock are converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash, or property, or (e) we consummate a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination with another person or entity whereby such other person or entity acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, each, a “Common Stock Purchase Warrant Fundamental Transaction,” then upon any subsequent exercise of the warrants, the holders thereof will have the right to receive the same amount and kind of securities, cash, or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Common Stock Purchase Warrant Fundamental Transaction if it had been immediately prior to such Common Stock Purchase Warrant Fundamental Transaction, the holder of the number of warrant shares then issuable upon exercise of the warrant, and any additional consideration payable as part of the Common Stock Purchase Warrant Fundamental Transaction.

Rights as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in the warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our common stock, the holder of the warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of our common stock, including any voting rights, until the holder exercises the warrant.

August 2019 Warrants

On August 14, 2019, we entered into the SPA with certain purchasers named therein, or the Preferred Purchasers, pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell to the Preferred Purchasers, in addition to shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, warrants, which we refer to as the August Warrants, to purchase up to approximately 3.87 million shares of our common stock. We closed the offering on August 14, 2019 and issued 5,030 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and granted the August Warrants exercisable for up to 3,245,162 shares of common stock in connection therewith. We received gross proceeds equal to $5,030,000.

Exercisability. The warrants are exercisable from and after six months after the date of issuance and at any time for the five-year period from the date of issuance. The warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of shares of our common stock purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise as discussed below).

Cashless Exercise. In the event that a registration statement covering shares of our common stock underlying the warrants is not available for the resale of such shares of our common stock underlying the warrants, the holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise the warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of our common stock determined according to the formula set forth in the warrant. In no event will we be required to make any cash payments or net cash settlement to the registered holder in lieu of issuing shares of our common stock underlying the warrants.

Exercise Price. The initial exercise price per-whole share of our common stock purchasable upon exercise of the warrants was $1.88. The exercise price is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications, or similar events affecting our common stock and also upon any distribution of assets, including cash, stock, or other property to our stockholders. If we or any subsidiary, at any time while the August Warrants are outstanding, sell or grant any option to purchase, or sell or grant any right to reprice or otherwise dispose of or issue any common stock or common stock equivalents at an effective price less than the exercise price then in effect, then the exercise price shall be reduced to the lower exercise price then in effect, subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, recapitalizations, and similar transactions and subject to certain exceptions. If we, at any time while the August Warrants are outstanding, issue rights, options, or warrants to all holders of common stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of common stock at a price per share less than the volume weighted average price on the record date mentioned below, then the exercise price shall be multiplied by a fraction, of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of common stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights, options, or warrants plus the number of additional shares of common stock offered for subscription or purchase, and of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of common stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights, options, or warrants plus the number of shares that the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered (assuming receipt by us in full of all consideration payable upon exercise of such rights, options or warrants) would purchase at such volume weighted average price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such rights, options, or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options, or warrants.

Transferability. Subject to applicable laws, the warrants may be transferred at the option of the holders upon surrender of the warrants together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.

Exchange Listing. Our August Warrants are not listed on any securities exchange or other trading system and we do not intend to apply for listing on any securities exchange or other trading system.

Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while the warrants are outstanding, (a) we consolidate or merge with or into another corporation and we are not the surviving corporation, (b) we sell, lease, license, assign, transfer, convey, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets, (c) any purchase offer, tender offer, or exchange offer (whether by us or another individual or entity) is completed pursuant to which holders of shares of our common stock are permitted to sell, tender, or exchange their shares of our common stock for our other securities, cash, or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding shares of our common stock, (d) we effect any reclassification or recapitalization of shares of our common stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the shares of our common stock are converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash, or property, or (e) we consummate a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination with another person or entity whereby such other person or entity acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, each, an “August Warrant Fundamental Transaction,” then upon any subsequent exercise of the warrants, the holders thereof will have the right to receive the same amount and kind of securities, cash, or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such August Warrant Fundamental Transaction if it had been immediately prior to such August Warrant Fundamental Transaction, the holder of the number of warrant shares then issuable upon exercise of the warrant, and any additional consideration payable as part of the August Warrant Fundamental Transaction. In the event of an August Warrant Fundamental Transaction, we or any successor entity shall, at the holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the August Warrant Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable August Warrant Fundamental Transaction), purchase the warrant from the holder by paying to the holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of the remaining unexercised portion of the warrant on the date of the consummation of such August Warrant Fundamental Transaction. For purposes of the August Warrants, “Black Scholes Value” means the value of the warrant based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg, L.P., or Bloomberg, determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable August Warrant Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable August Warrant Fundamental Transaction and the termination date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the 100-day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365-day annualization factor) as of the trading day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable August Warrant Fundamental Transaction (but in no event shall such expected volatility be greater than one hundred percent (100%)), (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the greater of (i) the sum of the price per share being offered in cash, if any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being offered in such August Warrant Fundamental Transaction and (ii) the greater of (x) the last volume weighted average price immediately prior to the public announcement of such August Warrant Fundamental Transaction and (y) the last volume weighted average price immediately prior to the consummation of such August Warrant Fundamental Transaction, and (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable August Warrant Fundamental Transaction and the termination date and (E) a zero cost of borrow. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five business days of the holder’s election (or, if later, on the effective date of the August Warrant Fundamental Transaction).

Rights as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in the warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our common stock, the holder of the warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of our common stock, including any voting rights, until the holder exercises the warrant.

February 2020 Warrants

In connection with our private placement of common stock in February 2020, the Preferred Purchasers who, as of February 7, 2020, continued to own shares of our Series A Preferred Stock (a) waived their respective rights, or the February 2020 Waiver, to participate in our private placement, and (b) declined to accept the price protection rights to which they otherwise were entitled as holders of shares of our Series A Preferred Stock. In connection with the February 2020 Waiver, we granted to each of our Preferred Purchasers who continued to own shares of our Series A Preferred Stock as of February 7, 2020 a five-year common stock purchase warrant, or February 2020 Warrants, the terms of which are substantially similar to the terms of our August Warrants, with the sole material differences being the grant date and the $1.55 per-share exercise price. The initial per-share exercise price of our August Warrants was $1.88 and, by virtue of our private placement, the per-share exercise price was modified to $1.10. Our February 2020 Warrants are not listed on any securities exchange or other trading system and we do not intend to apply for listing on any securities exchange or other trading system.

As of January 14, 2021, we had 13,311,251 shares of our common stock underlying outstanding warrants, having a weighted-average exercise price of approximately $2.49 per share.

SoloFire Exchange Agreement

In connection with our acquisition of Ascend Certification, LLC, dba SoloFire (“SoloFire”) on September 4, 2020, we entered into an Exchange Agreement with the prior owners of SoloFire whereby we agreed that on or after March 4, 2021, the prior owners of SoloFire can exchange their Class B interests in our acquisition subsidiary, Verb Acquisition Co., LLC, for up to an aggregate of 2,642,159 shares of our common stock.

Outstanding Options and Awards

As of January 14, 2021, we had 6,228,045 shares of our common stock underlying outstanding stock options, having a weighted-average exercise price of approximately $1.58 per share, and 2,811,508 restricted stock awards having a weighted-average grant date fair value of $1.32 issued under our Incentive Plan, respectively.

Choice of Forum

Our bylaws provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the state and federal courts in the State of Nevada shall be the exclusive forum for any litigation relating to our internal affairs, including, without limitation: (a) any derivative action brought on behalf of us, (b) any action asserting a claim for breach of fiduciary duty to us or our stockholders by any current or former officer, director, employee, or agent of us, or (c) any action against us or any current or former officer, director, employee, or agent of us arising pursuant to any provision of the NRS, the articles of incorporation, or the bylaws. For the avoidance of doubt, the exclusive forum provision described above does not apply to any claims arising under the Securities Act or Exchange Act. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder, and Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. See “Risk Factors— Risks Related to an Investment in Our Securities—Our bylaws contain an exclusive forum provision, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers, employees or agents.”

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

The following description, together with the additional information we include in any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, summarizes certain general terms and provisions of the debt securities that we may offer under this prospectus. When we offer to sell a particular series of debt securities, we will describe the specific terms of the series in a supplement to this prospectus. We will also indicate in the supplement to what extent the general terms and provisions described in this prospectus apply to a particular series of debt securities.

We may issue debt securities either separately, or together with, or upon the conversion or exercise of or in exchange for, other securities described in this prospectus. Debt securities may be our senior, senior subordinated or subordinated obligations and, unless otherwise specified in a supplement to this prospectus, the debt securities will be our direct, unsecured obligations and may be issued in one or more series.

The debt securities will be issued under an indenture between us and a third party to be identified therein as trustee. We have summarized select portions of the indenture below. The summary is not complete. The form of the indenture has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement and you should read the indenture for provisions that may be important to you. In the summary below, we have included references to the section numbers of the indenture so that you can easily locate these provisions. Capitalized terms used in the summary and not defined herein have the meanings specified in the indenture.

We may offer under this prospectus up to an aggregate principal amount of $75,000,000 in debt securities, or if debt securities are issued at a discount, or in a foreign currency, foreign currency units or composite currency, the principal amount as may be sold for an aggregate initial public offering price of up to $75,000,000. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities will represent direct, unsecured obligations of the Company and will rank equally with all of our other unsecured indebtedness.

General

The terms of each series of debt securities will be established by or pursuant to a resolution of our board of directors and set forth or determined in the manner provided in a resolution of our board of directors, in an officer’s certificate or by a supplemental indenture. (Section 2.2) We can issue an unlimited amount of debt securities under the indenture that may be issued in one or more series. Unless otherwise set forth in a resolution of our board of directors, a supplemental indenture or an officer’s certificate detailing the adopt of a series of debt securities, all securities in a series shall be identical. Debt securities may differ between series with respect to any term, provided, that all series of debt securities shall be equally and ratably entitled to the benefits of the indenture. (Section 2.1)

The following statements relating to the debt securities and the indenture are summaries, qualified in their entirety by reference to the detailed provisions of the indenture and the final form indenture as may be filed with a future prospectus supplement.

The prospectus supplement will set forth, to the extent required, the following terms of the debt securities in respect of which the prospectus supplement is delivered:

We may issue debt securities that provide for an amount less than their stated principal amount to be due and payable upon declaration of acceleration of their maturity pursuant to the terms of the indenture. We will provide you with information on the federal income tax considerations and other special considerations applicable to any of these debt securities in the applicable prospectus supplement.

If we denominate the purchase price of any of the debt securities in a foreign currency or currencies or a foreign currency unit or units, or if the principal of and any premium and interest on any series of debt securities is payable in a foreign currency or currencies or a foreign currency unit or units, we will provide you with information on the restrictions, elections, general tax considerations, specific terms and other information with respect to that issue of debt securities and such foreign currency or currencies or foreign currency unit or units in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Exchange and/or Conversion Rights

We may issue debt securities which can be exchanged for or converted into shares of our common stock or preferred stock. If we do, we will describe the terms of exchange or conversion in the prospectus supplement relating to these debt securities. (Section 2.2)

Transfer and Exchange

Each debt security will be represented by either one or more global securities registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company, or the Depositary, or a nominee of the Depositary (we will refer to any debt security represented by a global debt security as a book-entry debt security), or a certificate issued in definitive registered form (we will refer to any debt security represented by a certificated security as a certificated debt security) as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. Except as set forth under the heading “Global Debt Securities and Book-Entry System” below, book-entry debt securities will not be issuable in certificated form.

Certificated Debt Securities

You may transfer or exchange certificated debt securities in accordance with the terms of the indenture. (Section 2.4) You will not be charged a service charge for any transfer or exchange of certificated debt securities but may be required to pay an amount sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection with such transfer or exchange. (Section 2.7)

You may effect the transfer of certificated debt securities and the right to receive the principal of, premium and interest on certificated debt securities only by surrendering the certificate representing those certificated debt securities and either reissuance by us or the trustee of the certificate to the new holder or the issuance by us or the trustee of a new certificate to the new holder. (Section 2.7)

Global Securities

Each global debt security representing book-entry debt securities will be deposited with, or on behalf of, the Depositary, and registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary. Please see “Global Securities.”

No Protection in the Event of a Change of Control

Unless we state otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities will not contain any provisions which may afford holders of the debt securities protection in the event we have a change in control or in the event of a highly leveraged transaction (whether or not such transaction results in a change in control) which could adversely affect holders of debt securities.

Covenants

Unless otherwise indicated in this prospectus or the applicable prospectus supplement, our debt securities may not have the benefit of any covenant that limits or restricts our business or operations, the pledging of our assets or the incurrence by us of indebtedness. We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement any material covenants in respect of a series of debt securities. (Article 4)

Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets

We may not consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our properties and assets to any person, or a successor person, unless:

Defaults and Notice

Unless otherwise specified in the resolution of our board of directors, supplemental indenture or officer’s certificate establishing a series of debt securities, “Event of Default” means with respect to any series of debt securities, any of the following:

No Event of Default with respect to a particular series of debt securities necessarily constitutes an Event of Default with respect to any other series of debt securities. (Section 6.2) The occurrence of certain Events of Default or an acceleration under the indenture may constitute an event of default under certain indebtedness of ours or our subsidiary outstanding from time to time.

If an Event of Default with respect to debt securities of any series at the time outstanding (except as to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization) occurs and is continuing, then the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may, by a notice in writing to us (and to the trustee if given by the holders), declare to be due and payable immediately the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all debt securities of that series. In the case of an Event of Default resulting from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, the principal (or such specified amount) of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding debt securities will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or any holder of outstanding debt securities. At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to debt securities of any series has been made, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the trustee, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may rescind and annul the acceleration if all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of accelerated principal and interest, if any, with respect to debt securities of that series, have been cured or waived as provided in the indenture and such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree. (Section 6.2) We refer you to the prospectus supplement relating to any series of debt securities that are discount securities for the particular provisions relating to acceleration of a portion of the principal amount of such discount securities upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.

The trustee is entitled to be indemnified by holders of debt securities before proceeding to exercise any trust or power under the indenture at the request of such holders. (Section 6.6) The holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities of any series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceedings for any remedy available to the trustee for such series, or of exercising any trust or power conferred upon the trustee with respect to the debt securities of such series. (Section 6.5) However, the trustee may decline to follow any such direction that conflicts with law or the indenture, or that the trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the holders of the debt securities of such series not joining in such direction. (Section 6.5)

No holder of any debt security of any series will have any right to institute any proceeding or pursue any remedy, with respect to the indenture or a series of debt securities, unless:

No holder of debt securities under the indenture may use the indenture to prejudice the rights of another holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another holder of debt securities. (Section 6.6)

Notwithstanding any other provision in the indenture, the holder of any debt security will have an absolute and unconditional right to receive payment of the principal of, premium and any interest on that debt security on or after the due dates expressed in that debt security and to institute suit for the enforcement of payment. (Section 6.7)

The indenture requires us, within 120 days after the end of our fiscal year, to furnish to the trustee a statement as to compliance with the indenture. (Section 4.4) If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the securities of any series and if it is known to a responsible officer of the trustee, the trustee shall mail to each holder of the securities of that series notice of a Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs or, if later, after a responsible officer of the trustee has knowledge of such Default or Event of Default (except if such Default or Event of Default has been validly cured or waived before the trustee gives such notice). The indenture provides that the trustee may withhold notice to the holders of debt securities of any series of any Default or Event of Default (except in payment on any debt securities of that series) with respect to debt securities of that series if the trustee determines in good faith that withholding notice is in the interest of the holders of those debt securities. (Section 7.5)

Modification of the Indenture

We and the trustee may modify, amend or supplement the indenture or the debt securities of any series without the consent of any holder of any debt security:

We may also modify or supplement the indenture with the written consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each series affected by the modifications or supplement. The holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each such series affected by the modifications or supplement may waive compliance by us in a particular instance with any provision of the indenture or the debt securities of such affected series of debt securities without notice to any holder of our debt securities. We may not make any modification or amendment without the consent of the holders of each affected debt security then outstanding if that amendment will:

The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may on behalf of the holders of all the debt securities of such series waive any past default under the indenture with respect to that series and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of, premium or any interest on any debt security of that series (Section 6.4); provided, however, that the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from the acceleration. (Section 6.2)

Defeasance of Debt Securities and Certain Covenants in Certain Circumstances

Legal Defeasance. The indenture provides that, unless otherwise provided by the terms of the applicable series of debt securities, we may be discharged from any and all obligations in respect of the debt securities of any series (subject to certain exceptions). We will be so discharged upon the irrevocable deposit with the trustee, in trust, of money and/or U.S. government obligations or, in the case of debt securities denominated in a single currency other than U.S. Dollars, government obligations of the government that issued or caused to be issued such currency, that, through the payment of interest and principal in accordance with their terms, will provide money or U.S. government obligations in an amount sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants or investment bank to pay and discharge each installment of principal, premium and interest on and any mandatory sinking fund payments in respect of the debt securities of that series on the stated maturity of those payments in accordance with the terms of the indenture and those debt securities.

This discharge may occur only if, among other things, we have delivered to the trustee an opinion of counsel stating that we have received from, or there has been published by, the United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling or, since the date of execution of the indenture, there has been a change in the applicable United States federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the holders of the debt securities of that series will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, defeasance and discharge and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred. (Section 8.3)

Defeasance of Certain Covenants. The indenture provides that, unless otherwise provided by the terms of the applicable series of debt securities, upon compliance with certain conditions:

This is referred to as covenant defeasance. The conditions include:

No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees or Shareholders

None of our past, present or future directors, officers, employees or shareholders, as such, will have any liability for any of our obligations under the debt securities or the indenture or for any claim based on, or in respect or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. By accepting a debt security, each holder waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release is part of the consideration for the issue of the debt securities. However, this waiver and release may not be effective to waive liabilities under U.S. federal securities laws, and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy. (Section 10.9)

Governing Law

The indenture and the debt securities, including any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to the indenture or the securities, will be governed by the laws of the State of New York. (Section 10.8)

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

We may issue warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, preferred stock and/or debt securities in one or more series together with other securities or separately, as described in each applicable prospectus supplement. Below is a description of certain general terms and provisions of the warrants that we may offer. Particular terms of the warrants will be described in the applicable warrant agreements and the applicable prospectus supplement for the warrants.

The applicable prospectus supplement will contain, where applicable, the following terms of and other information relating to the warrants:

Holders of equity warrants will not be entitled:

Each warrant will entitle its holder to purchase the principal amount of debt securities or the number of shares of preferred stock or common stock at the exercise price set forth in, or calculable as set forth in, the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless we otherwise specify in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants at any time up to the specified time on the expiration date that we set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.

A holder of warrant certificates may exchange them for new warrant certificates of different denominations, present them for registration of transfer and exercise them at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement. Until any warrants to purchase debt securities are exercised, the holder of the warrants will not have any rights of holders of the debt securities that can be purchased upon exercise, including any rights to receive payments of principal, premium or interest on the underlying debt securities or to enforce covenants in the applicable indenture. Until any warrants to purchase common stock or preferred stock are exercised, the holders of the warrants will not have any rights of holders of the underlying common stock or preferred stock, including any rights to receive dividends or payments upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up on the common stock or preferred stock, if any.

Prospective purchasers of warrants should be aware that special United States federal income tax, accounting and other considerations may be applicable to instruments such as warrants. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe such considerations, to the extent they are material, as they apply generally to purchasers of such warrants.

DESCRIPTION OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS

We may issue subscription rights to purchase our common stock, preferred stock or debt securities. These subscription rights may be offered independently or together with any other security offered hereby and may or may not be transferable by the stockholder receiving the subscription rights in such offering. In connection with any offering of subscription rights, we may enter into a standby arrangement with one or more underwriters or other purchasers pursuant to which the underwriters or other purchasers may be required to purchase any securities remaining unsubscribed for after such offering.

The prospectus supplement relating to any subscription rights we offer, if any, will, to the extent applicable, include specific terms relating to the offering, including some or all of the following:

The descriptions of the subscription rights in this prospectus and in any prospectus supplement are summaries of the material provisions of the applicable subscription right agreements. These descriptions do not restate those subscription right agreements in their entirety and may not contain all the information that you may find useful. We urge you to read the applicable subscription right agreements because they, and not the summaries, define your rights as holders of the subscription rights. For more information, please review the forms of the relevant subscription right agreements, which will be filed with the SEC promptly after the offering of subscription rights and will be available as described in the section of this prospectus captioned “Where You Can Find More Information.”

GLOBAL SECURITIES

Unless we indicate differently in any applicable prospectus supplement, the securities initially will be issued in book-entry form and represented by one or more global notes or global securities, or, collectively, global securities. The global securities will be deposited with, or on behalf of, The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York, as depositary, or DTC, and registered in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC. Unless and until it is exchanged for individual certificates evidencing securities under the limited circumstances described below, a global security may not be transferred except as a whole by the depositary to its nominee or by the nominee to the depositary, or by the depositary or its nominee to a successor depositary or to a nominee of the successor depositary.

DTC has advised us that it is:

DTC holds securities that its participants deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among its participants of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in participants’ accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates. “Direct participants” in DTC include securities brokers and dealers, including underwriters, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, or DTCC. DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others, which we sometimes refer to as indirect participants, that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a direct participant, either directly or indirectly. The rules applicable to DTC and its participants are on file with the SEC.

Purchases of securities under the DTC system must be made by or through direct participants, which will receive a credit for the securities on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of the actual purchaser of a security, which we sometimes refer to as a beneficial owner, is in turn recorded on the direct and indirect participants’ records. Beneficial owners of securities will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchases. However, beneficial owners are expected to receive written confirmations providing details of their transactions, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the direct or indirect participants through which they purchased securities. Transfers of ownership interests in global securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of participants acting on behalf of beneficial owners. Beneficial owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the global securities, except under the limited circumstances described below.

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all global securities deposited by direct participants with DTC will be registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other nominee will not change the beneficial ownership of the securities. DTC has no knowledge of the actual beneficial owners of the securities. DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the direct participants to whose accounts the securities are credited, which may or may not be the beneficial owners. The participants are responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

So long as the securities are in book-entry form, you will receive payments and may transfer securities only through the facilities of the depositary and its direct and indirect participants. We will maintain an office or agency in the location specified in the prospectus supplement for the applicable securities, where notices and demands in respect of the securities and the indenture may be delivered to us and where certificated securities may be surrendered for payment, registration of transfer or exchange.

Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to direct participants, by direct participants to indirect participants and by direct participants and indirect participants to beneficial owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any legal requirements in effect from time to time.

Redemption notices will be sent to DTC. If less than all of the securities of a particular series are being redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each direct participant in the securities of such series to be redeemed.

Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (or such other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to the securities. Under its usual procedures, DTC will mail an omnibus proxy to us as soon as possible after the record date. The omnibus proxy assigns the consenting or voting rights of Cede & Co. to those direct participants to whose accounts the securities of such series are credited on the record date, identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy.

So long as securities are in book-entry form, we will make payments on those securities to the depositary or its nominee, as the registered owner of such securities, by wire transfer of immediately available funds. If securities are issued in definitive certificated form under the limited circumstances described below and unless if otherwise provided in the description of the applicable securities herein or in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will have the option of making payments by check mailed to the addresses of the persons entitled to payment or by wire transfer to bank accounts in the United States designated in writing to the applicable trustee or other designated party at least 15 days before the applicable payment date by the persons entitled to payment, unless a shorter period is satisfactory to the applicable trustee or other designated party.

Redemption proceeds, distributions and dividend payments on the securities will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit direct participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from us on the payment date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC records. Payments by participants to beneficial owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the account of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name.” Those payments will be the responsibility of participants and not of DTC or us, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions and dividend payments to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC, is our responsibility, disbursement of payments to direct participants is the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of payments to the beneficial owners is the responsibility of direct and indirect participants.

Except under the limited circumstances described below, purchasers of securities will not be entitled to have securities registered in their names and will not receive physical delivery of securities. Accordingly, each beneficial owner must rely on the procedures of DTC and its participants to exercise any rights under the securities and the indenture.

The laws of some jurisdictions may require that some purchasers of securities take physical delivery of securities in definitive form. Those laws may impair the ability to transfer or pledge beneficial interests in securities.

DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depositary with respect to the securities at any time by giving reasonable notice to us. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depositary is not obtained, securities certificates are required to be printed and delivered.

As noted above, beneficial owners of a particular series of securities generally will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in those securities. However, if:

we will prepare and deliver certificates for such securities in exchange for beneficial interests in the global securities. Any beneficial interest in a global security that is exchangeable under the circumstances described in the preceding sentence will be exchangeable for securities in definitive certificated form registered in the names that the depositary directs. It is expected that these directions will be based upon directions received by the depositary from its participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the global securities.

Euroclear and Clearstream

If so provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, you may hold interests in a global security through Clearstream Banking S.A., which we refer to as “Clearstream,” or Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System, which we refer to as “Euroclear,” either directly if you are a participant in Clearstream or Euroclear or indirectly through organizations which are participants in Clearstream or Euroclear. Clearstream and Euroclear will hold interests on behalf of their respective participants through customers’ securities accounts in the names of Clearstream and Euroclear, respectively, on the books of their respective U.S. depositaries, which in turn will hold such interests in customers’ securities accounts in such depositaries’ names on DTC’s books.

Clearstream and Euroclear are securities clearance systems in Europe. Clearstream and Euroclear hold securities for their respective participating organizations and facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between those participants through electronic book-entry changes in their accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates.

Payments, deliveries, transfers, exchanges, notices and other matters relating to beneficial interests in global securities owned through Euroclear or Clearstream must comply with the rules and procedures of those systems. Transactions between participants in Euroclear or Clearstream, on one hand, and other participants in DTC, on the other hand, are also subject to DTC’s rules and procedures.

Investors will be able to make and receive through Euroclear and Clearstream payments, deliveries, transfers and other transactions involving any beneficial interests in global securities held through those systems only on days when those systems are open for business. Those systems may not be open for business on days when banks, brokers and other institutions are open for business in the United States.

Cross-market transfers between participants in DTC, on the one hand, and participants in Euroclear or Clearstream, on the other hand, will be effected through DTC in accordance with the DTC’s rules on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by their respective U.S. depositaries; however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by the counterparty in such system in accordance with the rules and procedures and within the established deadlines (European time) of such system. Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its U.S. depositary to take DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for same-day fund settlement. Participants in Euroclear or Clearstream may not deliver instructions directly to their respective U.S. depositaries.

Due to time zone differences, the securities accounts of a participant in Euroclear or Clearstream purchasing an interest in a global security from a direct participant in DTC will be credited, and any such crediting will be reported to the relevant participant in Euroclear or Clearstream, during the securities settlement processing day (which must be a business day for Euroclear or Clearstream) immediately following the settlement date of DTC. Cash received in Euroclear or Clearstream as a result of sales of interests in a global security by or through a participant in Euroclear or Clearstream to a direct participant in DTC will be received with value on the settlement date of DTC but will be available in the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream cash account only as of the business day for Euroclear or Clearstream following DTC’s settlement date.

Other

The information in this section of this prospectus concerning DTC, Clearstream, Euroclear and their respective book-entry systems has been obtained from sources that we believe to be reliable, but we do not take responsibility for this information. This information has been provided solely as a matter of convenience. The rules and procedures of DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear are solely within the control of those organizations and could change at any time. Neither we nor the trustee nor any agent of ours or of the trustee has any control over those entities and none of us takes any responsibility for their activities.

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

Below is a description of certain general terms and provisions of the units that we may offer. Particular terms of the units will be described in the applicable unit agreements and the applicable prospectus supplement for the units. We urge you to read the applicable prospectus supplements related to the units that we sell under this prospectus, as well as the complete unit agreements that contain the terms of the units.

We may issue units comprised of our common stock, our preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, rights, purchase contracts, or any combination of such securities under this prospectus. Units may be issued in one or more series, independently or together with shares of our common stock, our preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, rights or purchase contracts, and the units may be attached to or separate from such securities. We may issue units directly or under a unit agreement to be entered into between us and a unit agent. We will name any unit agent in the applicable prospectus supplement. Any unit agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the units of a particular series and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders or beneficial owners of units. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the series of units, including the following:

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell the securities being offered by this prospectus separately or together:

In addition, we may issue the securities being offered by this prospectus as a dividend or distribution. We may effect the distribution of the securities from time to time in one or more transactions:

For example, we may engage in at-the-market offerings into an existing trading market in accordance with Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act. We may also sell securities through a rights offering, forward contracts or similar arrangements. In any distribution of subscription rights to stockholders, if all of the underlying securities are not subscribed for, we may then sell the unsubscribed securities directly to third parties or may engage the services of one or more underwriters, dealers or agents, including standby underwriters, to sell the unsubscribed securities to third parties.

The securities issued and sold under this prospectus will have no established trading market, other than our common stock, which is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Any shares of our common stock sold pursuant to this prospectus will be eligible for listing and trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to official notice of issuance. Any underwriters to whom securities are sold by us for public offering and sale may make a market in the securities, but the underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. The securities, other than our common stock, may or may not be listed on a national securities exchange or other trading market.

We will set forth in a prospectus supplement:

If we sell directly to institutional investors or others, they may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any resale of the securities. Unless otherwise indicated in a prospectus supplement, if we sell through an agent, such agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment. Any agent may be deemed to be an “underwriter” of the securities as that term is defined in the Securities Act. If a dealer is used in the sale of the securities, we or an underwriter will sell securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale.

To the extent permitted by and in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act, in connection with an offering an underwriter may engage in over-allotments, stabilizing transactions, short covering transactions and penalty bids. Over-allotments involve sales in excess of the offering size, which creates a short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum. Short covering transactions involve purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution is completed to cover short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities originally sold by the dealer are purchased in a covering transaction to cover short positions. Those activities may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would be otherwise. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue any of the activities at any time.

To the extent permitted by and in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act, any underwriters who are qualified market makers on The Nasdaq Capital Market may engage in passive market making transactions in the securities on The Nasdaq Capital Market during the business day prior to the pricing of an offering, before the commencement of offers or sales of the securities. Passive market makers must comply with applicable volume and price limitations and must be identified as passive market makers. In general, a passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid for such security; if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid, however, the passive market maker’s bid must then be lowered when certain purchase limits are exceeded.

The specific terms of any lock-up provisions in respect of any given offering will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with us, or perform services for us, in the ordinary course of business for which they receive compensation.

No securities may be sold under this prospectus without delivery, in paper format or in electronic format, or both, of the applicable prospectus supplement describing the method and terms of the offering.

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of the shares of common stock offered under this prospectus will be passed upon by Troutman Pepper Hamilton Sanders LLP, Irvine, California. Additional legal matters may be passed upon for us or any underwriters, dealers or agents, by counsel that we will name in the applicable prospectus supplement. As appropriate, legal counsel representing the underwriters, dealers or agents will be named in the accompanying prospectus supplement and may opine to certain legal matters.
