EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

The Registrant is filing a single prospectus in this Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 429 under the Securities Act, in order to satisfy the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder for this offering. Pursuant to Rule 429 under the Securities Act of 1933, the prospectus included in this Registration Statement is a combined prospectus relating to (i) our registration statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-261734) filed on December 17, 2021 and declared effective on December 27, 2021 and which related to the resale of up to 4,669,580 shares of Common Stock of the Registrant (including shares issuable upon exercise of warrants held by certain selling stockholders) from time to time by the selling stockholders named therein (the “Prior Registration Statement”) and (ii) the registration hereby of up to an additional 4,603,216 shares of Common Stock of the Registrant (including shares issuable upon exercise of warrants held by certain selling stockholders) for resale from time to time by the selling stockholders named herein (the “New Registration Statement”).

 

This registration statement on Form S-3 constitutes a post-effective amendment to the Prior Registration Statement, and is being filed to convert the Prior Registration Statement into a registration statement on Form S-3 and to include the New Registration Statement. This Registration Statement contains an updated prospectus relating to the offering and sale of the shares that were registered for resale on the Prior Registration Statement and the New Registration Statement.

The selling stockholders may not sell these securities until the registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is effective.

SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED MARCH 16, 2023

PROSPECTUS 

 

   

9,272,796 Shares of Common Stock

 

This prospectus relates to the offering and resale by the selling stockholders identified herein of up to an aggregate of 9,272,796 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), consisting of shares of Common Stock and shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of warrants that may be sold from time to time pursuant to this registration statement by the selling stockholders identified herein.

 

The warrants were issued to the selling stockholders in private offerings completed prior to the filing of the Registration Statement of which this prospectus forms a part. We are not selling any shares of Common Stock in this offering, and we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling stockholders; however, we may receive proceeds from any cash exercise of warrants.

This price will fluctuate based on the demand for our Common Stock. However, the Common Stock offered by this prospectus may also be offered by the selling stockholders to or through underwriters, dealers, or other agents, directly to investors, or through any other manner permitted by law, on a continued or delayed basis. We provide additional information about how the selling stockholders may sell their shares of Common Stock in the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 11 of this prospectus.

 

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” in the section entitled “Risk Factors” on page 6 of this prospectus for a discussion of certain risk factors that should be considered by prospective purchasers of the Common Stock offered under this prospectus.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

This summary highlights selected information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. While this summary highlights what we consider to be important information about us, you should carefully read this entire prospectus before investing in our Common Stock, especially the risks and other information we discuss under the heading “Risk Factors” included herein. Unless otherwise indicated or the context requires otherwise, the words “we,” “us,” “our”, the “Company” or “our Company” or refer to Recruiter.com Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries.

 

Our Company

 

We are a holding company that operates an on-demand recruiting platform digitally transforming the 28.5-billion-dollar employment and recruiting agencies industry (IBISWorld Report 09/30/2022). We offer recruiting software and services through an online, AI-powered sourcing platform (the “Platform”) and network of on-demand professional recruiters. Businesses from startups to the Fortune 100 use Recruiter.com to help address their critical talent needs and solve recruiting and hiring challenges.

 

We have seven subsidiaries, Recruiter.com, Inc., Recruiter.com Recruiting Solutions LLC (“Recruiting Solutions”), Recruiter.com Consulting, LLC, VocaWorks, Inc. (“VocaWorks”), Recruiter.com Scouted Inc. (“Scouted”), Recruiter.com Upsider Inc. (“Upsider”) and Recruiter.com OneWire Inc. (“OneWire”). As of March 6, 2023, we employed 34 full-time corporate employees and 75 outside staffing professionals.

 

We leverage proprietary AI-based candidate sourcing software and other recruitment marketing and candidate sourcing technologies to serve our client’s talent needs. For employers needing talent acquisition services, we place independent recruiters from our network with our clients on a project basis. To round out our offerings, we provide other talent acquisition support services, including consulting, staffing, full-time placement services, and talent effectiveness coaching.

 

Our mission is to help recruit the right talent faster and become the preferred solution for hiring specialized talent.

 

 

·

Software Subscriptions: We offer a managed service subscription using our web-based platform and other software tools to help employers recruit talent. Our Platform allows our customers to source, contact, screen, and sort candidates using data science, advanced email campaigning tools, and predictive analytics. As part of our software subscriptions, we offer enhanced support packages and on-demand recruiting support services for an additional fee. Depending on the subscription type, additional fees may be charged when we place a candidate with our customer. In such cases, if the candidate ceases to be employed by the customer during the initial 90 days (the 90-day guarantee), we refund the customer in full for all fees paid by the customer.

 

 

 

 

·

Recruiters on Demand: Consists of a consulting and staffing service specifically for the placement of professional recruiters, which we market as Recruiters on Demand. Recruiters on Demand is a flexible, time-based solution that provides businesses of all sizes access to recruiters on an outsourced, virtual basis for help with their hiring needs. As with other consulting and staffing solutions, we procure for our employer clients qualified professional recruiters and then place them on assignment with our employer clients. We derive revenue from Recruiters on Demand by billing the employer clients for the placed recruiters’ ongoing work at an agreed-upon, time-based rate. We directly source recruiter candidates from our network of recruiters. In addition, we also offer talent planning, talent assessment, strategic guidance, and organizational development services, which we market as our “Talent Effectiveness” practice. Companies prepay for a certain number of consulting hours at an agreed-upon, time-based rate. We source and provide the independent consultants that provide the service.

·

Full-time Placement: Consists of providing referrals of qualified candidates to employers to hire staff for full-time positions. We generate full-time placement revenue by earning one-time fees for each time employers hire one of the candidates we refer. Employers alert us of their hiring needs through our Platform, or other communications. We source qualified candidate referrals for the employers’ available jobs through independent recruiter users that access the Platform and other tools. We support and supplement the independent recruiters’ efforts with dedicated internal employees we call our internal talent delivery team. Our talent delivery team selects and delivers candidate profiles and resumes to our employer clients for their review and ultimate selection. Upon the employer hiring one or more of our candidate referrals, we earn a “full-time placement fee,” an amount separately negotiated with each employer client. The full-time placement fee is typically either a percentage of the referred candidates’ first-year base salary or an agreed- upon flat fee.

 

 

 

 

·

Marketplace: Our “Marketplace” category comprises services for businesses and individuals that leverage our online presence. For businesses, this includes sponsorship of digital newsletters, online content promotion, social media distribution, banner advertising, and other branded electronic communications, such as in our quarterly digital publication on recruiting trends and issues. We earn revenue as we complete agreed upon marketing related deliverables and milestones using pricing and terms set by mutual agreement with the customer. In some cases, we earn a percentage of revenue a business receives from attracting new clients by advertising on our Platform. Businesses can also pay us to post job openings on our proprietary job boards to promote open job positions they are trying to fill. In addition to its work with direct clients, we categorize all online advertising and affiliate marketing revenue as Marketplace. For individuals, Marketplace includes services to assist with career development and advancement, including a resume distribution service that involves promoting these job seekers’ profiles and resume to help procure employment, upskilling and training. Our resume distribution service allows a job seeker to upload their resume to our database, which we then distribute to our network of recruiters on the Platform. We earn revenue from a one-time flat fee for this service. We also offer a recruiter certification program encompassing our recruitment-related training content, which we make accessible through our online learning management system. Customers of the recruiter certification program use a self-managed system to navigate through a digital course of study. Upon completion of the program, we issue a certificate of completion and make available a digital badge to certify their achievement for display on their online recruiter profile on the Platform. Additionally, we partner with Careerdash, a high-quality training company, to provide Recruiter.com Academy, an immersive training experience for career changers.

 

 

 

 

·

Consulting and Staffing: Consists of providing consulting and staffing personnel services to employers to satisfy their demand for long- and short-term consulting and temporary employee needs. We generate revenue by first referring qualified personnel for the employer’s specific talent needs, then placing such personnel with the employer, but with our providers acting as the employer of record for us, and finally, billing the employer for the time and work of our placed personnel on an ongoing basis. Our process for finding candidates for consulting and staffing engagements largely mirrors our process for full-time placement hiring. This process includes employers informing us of open consulting and temporary staffing opportunities and projects, sourcing qualified candidates through the Platform and other similar means, and, finally, the employer selecting our candidates for placement after a process of review and selection. We bill these employer clients for our placed candidates’ ongoing work at an agreed-upon, time-based rate, typically on a weekly invoicing schedule.

 

We have a sales team and sales partnerships with direct employers as well as vendor management system companies and managed service companies that help create sales channels for clients that buy staffing, direct hire, and sourcing services. Once we have secured the relationship and contract with the interested enterprise customer, the delivery and product teams will provide the service to fulfill any or all of the revenue segments.

 

The costs of our revenue primarily consist of employee costs, third-party staffing costs and other fees, outsourced recruiter fees and commissions based on a percentage of our gross margin.

As used in this prospectus, the term “selling stockholders” includes those stockholders listed below, and any donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors in interest selling shares received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge or other non-sale related transfer.

 

All expenses incurred with respect to the registration of the Common Stock will be borne by us, but we will not be obligated to pay any underwriting fees, discounts, commission or other expenses incurred by the selling stockholders in connection with the sale of such shares.

 

Except as indicated below, neither the selling stockholders nor any of their associates or affiliates has held any position, office, or other material relationship with us in the past three years.

 

The following table sets forth the names of the selling stockholders, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholders as of the date hereof and the number of shares of Common Stock being offered by the selling stockholders. The shares being offered hereby are being registered to permit public secondary trading, and the selling stockholders may offer all or part of the shares for resale from time to time. However, the selling stockholders are under no obligation to sell all or any portion of such shares. We do not know how long a selling stockholder will hold the shares before selling them, and we currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with a selling stockholder regarding the sale of any of the shares. All information with respect to share ownership has been furnished by the selling stockholders. The “Number of Shares Beneficially Owned After the Offering” column assumes the sale of all shares offered.

 

The table below lists the selling stockholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock by each of the selling stockholders.

 

This prospectus generally covers the resale of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock, and (ii) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, determined as if the outstanding warrants were exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the date this registration statement was initially filed with the SEC, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the of the warrants related to aggregate ownership.

(1) Assumes that the selling stockholders exercise and sell all of the common stock underlying warrants.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The selling stockholders and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of Common Stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. As of the date of this prospectus, our Common Stock is trading on Nasdaq and, for so long as our Common Stock continues trading on that exchange, we expect that sales made in the Nasdaq market will likely be effected on that exchange. As of March 15, 2023, the last reported closing price for our Common Stock on Nasdaq was $0.2302 per share, and as such represented the market price for our Common Stock as of that date. Sales of the Common Stock to be registered hereunder could be made at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at fixed prices, at negotiated prices, or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. As a result, we cannot know the price at which any of our Common Stock to be registered hereunder may ultimately be sold by the holders thereof. Shares of our Common Stock are currently trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol RCRT. The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

 

 

·

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

 

·

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

 

·

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

 

·

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

 

·

privately negotiated transactions;

 

·

short sales effected after the date the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC;

 

·

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

 

·

broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

·

a combination of any such methods of sale; and

 

·

any other method permitted by applicable law.

 

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of Common Stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of Common Stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

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

 

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the Common Stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the Common Stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of Common Stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering. Upon any exercise of the warrants by payment of cash, however, we will receive the exercise price of the warrants.

 

The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

 

The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the Common Stock or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

 

To the extent required, the shares of our Common Stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the Common Stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the Common Stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

We have advised the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, to the extent applicable we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

                We have not declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock since our inception. Under Nevada law, we are prohibited from paying dividends if the distribution would result in our company not being able to pay its debts as they become due in the normal course of business if our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to pay the dividends, or if we were to be dissolved at the time of distribution to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of stockholders whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the distribution. Even if our board of directors (“Board”) decides to pay dividends, the form, the frequency, and the amount will depend upon our future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors that the Board may deem relevant. While our Board will make any future decisions regarding dividends, as circumstances surrounding us change, it currently does not anticipate that we will pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

 

Our authorized capital stock consists of (i) 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), and (ii) 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. Of our preferred stock, 2,000,000 shares have been designated as Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, 775,000 shares have been designated as Series E Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, 200,000 shares have been designated as Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, while the remaining shares are blank check preferred stock. At March 5, 2023, there were 17,210,085 shares of common stock and 86,000 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.

 

Common stock

 

Dividend Rights 

 

Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of our Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends out of funds legally available if our Board, in its discretion, determines to declare and pay dividends and then only at the times and in the amounts that our Board may determine.

 

Voting Rights

 

Holders of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters properly submitted to a vote of stockholders on which holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote. We have not provided for cumulative voting for the election of directors in our Articles of Incorporation. The directors are elected by a plurality of the outstanding shares entitled to vote on the election of directors. On all other matters the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter constitutes the act of the stockholders, except as otherwise expressly provided by the Nevada Revised Statutes.

 

No Preemptive or Similar Rights

 

Our Common Stock is not entitled to preemptive rights, and is not subject to conversion, redemption or sinking fund provisions.

 

Right to Receive Liquidation Distributions

 

If we become subject to a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the assets legally available for distribution to our stockholders would be distributable ratably among the holders of our Common Stock and any participating preferred stock outstanding at that time, subject to prior satisfaction of all outstanding debt and liabilities and the preferential rights of and the payment of liquidation preferences, if any, on any outstanding shares of preferred stock.

 

Transfer Agent and Registrar

 

Pacific Stock Transfer (as successor to Philadelphia Stock Transfer, Inc.) is the transfer agent and registrar in respect of the Common Stock. The transfer agent and registrar for any series or class of preferred stock will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Preferred stock

 

                Our Board is authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by Nevada law, to issue preferred stock in one or more series, to establish from time-to-time the number of shares to be included in each series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each series and any of its qualifications, limitations or restrictions, in each case without further vote or action by our stockholders. Our Board can also increase (but not above the total number of authorized shares of the class) or decrease (but not below the number of shares then outstanding) the number of shares of any series of preferred stock, without any further vote or action by our stockholders. Our Board may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our Common Stock or other series of preferred stock. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible financings, acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could, among other things, have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in our control of our company and might adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock and the voting and other rights of the holders of our Common Stock.

 

Series E Convertible Preferred Stock

 

No Maturity, Sinking Fund or Mandatory Redemption

 

The Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Existing Preferred Stock”) has no stated maturity and will not be subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption. Shares of the Existing Preferred Stock will remain outstanding indefinitely unless we decide to redeem or otherwise repurchase them, or the holders decide to convert them.

 

Dividend Rights

 

The holders of our Existing Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends out of funds legally available if our Board, in its discretion, determines to declare and pay dividends and then only at the times and in the amounts that our Board may determine. Upon announcement of dividends by our Board, holders of our Existing Preferred Stock are entitled to such consideration as if the Existing Preferred Stock had been, immediately prior to such dividend, converted into our Common Stock.

 

Voting Rights

 

Holders of the Existing Preferred Stock are entitled to vote together with the holders of our Common Stock on an as-converted basis, subject to the conversion limitation described below.

 

Conversion Rights

 

Each holder of the Existing Preferred Stock is entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding shares of Existing Preferred Stock held by such holder into validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Common Stock. Each share of the Existing Preferred Stock is convertible into our Common Stock at a conversion rate equal to 5 shares of Common Stock per 1 share of Existing Preferred Stock, subject to adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting our Common Stock.

 

Liquidation Preference

 

The Existing Preferred Stock has senior liquidation preference rights compared to the Common Stock. Upon a liquidation, the Existing Preferred Stock shares are entitled to receive a preference to a stated value of $20.00.

Conversion Limitation

 

A holder of the Existing Preferred Stock may not convert any shares of the Existing Preferred Stock to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates and any other person or entity acting as a group, would own more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Stock after exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Existing Preferred Stock, except that upon prior notice from the holder to us, the holder may waive such limitation up to a percentage not in excess of 9.99%.

 

Fractional Shares

 

No fractional shares of our Common Stock will be issued upon any conversion of the Existing Preferred Stock. If the conversion would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion will be rounded up to the nearest whole share.

 

Options and Restricted Stock Units

 

                At March 5, 2023, awards for 17,210,085 shares of our common stock were outstanding, excluding 3,679,583 shares of our Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and 35,200 shares of our Common Stock underlying outstanding restricted stock units.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Various Provisions of Nevada Law and Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and Bylaws.

 

Provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes, our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and Bylaws could make it more difficult to acquire us by means of a tender offer, a proxy contest or otherwise, or to remove incumbent officers and directors. These provisions, summarized below, would be expected to discourage certain types of takeover practices and takeover bids our Board may consider inadequate and to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with us. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure us will outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging takeover or acquisition proposals because, among other things, negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

 

Blank Check Preferred Stock. Our Articles of Incorporation permit our Board to issue preferred stock with voting, conversion and exchange rights that could negatively affect the voting power or other rights of our Common Stock stockholders, and the Board could take that action without stockholder approval. The issuance of preferred stock could delay or prevent a change of control of Recruiter.com.

 

Board Vacancies to be Filled by Remaining Directors and Not Stockholders. Our Bylaws provide that any vacancies on the Board, including any newly created directorships, will be filled by the affirmative vote of the majority of the remaining directors then in office, even if such directors constitute less than a quorum.

 

Removal of Directors by Stockholders. Our Bylaws and the Nevada Revised Statutes provide that directors may be removed by stockholders only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of the outstanding capital stock entitled to vote.

 

Special Meetings of Stockholders. Under our Bylaws, only our Executive Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer, the Board, or stockholders who in the aggregate beneficially own at least 20% of all the outstanding shares of Recruiter.com entitled to vote at the meeting may call special meetings of Recruiter.com’s stockholders.

 

Nevada Anti-Takeover Statute. We are subject to Nevada’s Combination with Interested Stockholders Statute (Nevada Corporation Law Sections 78.411-78.444) which prohibits an “interested stockholder” from entering into a “combination” with the corporation, unless certain conditions are met. An “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, beneficially owns (or within the prior two years, did beneficially own) 10% or more of the corporation’s capital stock entitled to vote.

Rights as a Stockholder

 

The Public Warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of shares of common stock or any voting rights until they exercise their Public Warrants and receive shares of common stock. After the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the Public Warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

 

Item 14. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution.

 

            The estimated expenses payable by Recruiter.com Group, Inc. in connection with the distribution of the securities being registered are as follows:

 

SEC registration and filing fee

 

$ 170.37

 

Legal fees and expenses

 

 

5,000

 

Accounting fees and expenses

 

 

2,000

 

EDGAR fees and printing costs

 

 

1,000

 

TOTAL

 

$ 8,170.37

 

 

We have agreed to pay the foregoing expenses and we will not be seeking reimbursement from the selling stockholders.

 

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

The Nevada Revised Statutes limits or eliminates the personal liability of directors to corporations and their stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of directors’ fiduciary duties as directors. Our bylaws include provisions that require the company to indemnify our directors or officers against monetary damages for actions taken as a director or officer of Recruiter.com. We are also expressly authorized to carry directors’ and officers’ insurance to protect our directors, officers, employees and agents for certain liabilities. Our articles of incorporation do not contain any limiting language regarding director immunity from liability.

 

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions under the Nevada Revise Statutes and our bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. However, these provisions do not limit or eliminate our rights, or those of any stockholder, to seek non-monetary relief such as injunction or rescission in the event of a breach of a director’s fiduciary duties. Moreover, the provisions do not alter the liability of directors under the federal securities laws. In addition, your investment may be adversely affected to the extent that, in a class action or direct suit, we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

 

Insofar as the limitation of, or indemnification for, liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing, or otherwise, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such limitation or indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 16. Exhibits.

 

The exhibits to the registration statement are listed in the Exhibit Index attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

 

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii), and (a)(1)(iii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

 

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

 

(i) If the registrant is relying on Rule 430B:

 

(A) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

 

(B) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

Table of Contents

 

(ii) If the registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

 

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

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