About Cryoport

 

We provide fully integrated, temperature-controlled logistics solutions to the life sciences industry through a seamless combination of proprietary packaging, information technology, and specialized temperature-controlled logistics knowhow. Our competencies and capabilities are used to develop solutions that are customized to our client’s requirements. Our solutions integrate vital analytics, including chain-of-condition,chain-of-custody, chain of identity, and Chain of Compliance TM information, into a single data stream. We provide advanced, powerful, comprehensive and reliable technology-centric alternatives to traditional temperature-controlled distribution/logistics solutions for the life sciences industry.

 

Our services are utilized for temperature-controlled shipping, storage and information in the life sciences industry, which includes personalized medicine, immunotherapies, cellular therapies, CAR T-cell therapies, stem cell therapies, cell lines, gene therapies, vaccines, diagnostic materials, semen, eggs, embryos, cord blood, bio-pharmaceuticals, infectious substances, and other commodities that require continuous exposure to certain ranges of precision-controlled temperatures. As part of our services, our technologies provide the ability for us and/or our client, to monitor location and other specified critical variables for each shipment in real time. Information is recorded and archived for each shipment for scientific, quality assurance and regulatory purposes. This information provides an audit trail that can verify the ‘in shipment’ condition of the life sciences commodity, material, product, vaccine or therapy being shipped. Cryoport’s systems and solutions were designed to support high volume FDA approved commercial biologic product distribution in the United States and government approved products in other jurisdictions globally, such as those in the EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and Asia-Pacific regions. However, Cryoport’s solutions can also be applied to support clinical trials, Biologics License Applications (BLA), Investigational New Drug Applications and New Drug Applications (NDA) with the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

 

One of the most important features of our Cryoport Express ® Solutions is our sophisticated, cloud-based, logistics management platform, which is branded as the Cryoportal TM . The Cryoportal TM supports the management of shipments through a single interface, which includes order entry, document preparation, customs documentation, courier management, real-time shipment tracking, issue resolution, and regulatory compliance requirements. In addition, it provides unique and incisive information dashboards and validation documentation for every shipment through data collected by the SmartPak II TM Condition Monitoring System (SmartPak II TM ). The Cryoportal TM records and retains a fully documented regulatory history of all Cryoport Express ® Shippers, including chain-of-custody and chain-of-condition, chain of identity, and Chain of Compliance TM information for each shipment, which is used to ensure the quality, safety, efficacy and controlled conditions to ensure that the stability of shipped biologic commodities are maintained throughout the shipping cycle. At the client’s option, recorded information is archived, allowing the client to meet exacting requirements necessary for scientific work and for proof of regulatory compliance during the logistics process.

 

Our Cryoport Express ® Solutions include a family of Cryoport Express ® Shippers including liquid nitrogen dry vapor shippers and C3 TM Shippers (Cryoport. Certified. Cool.), which are phase-change shippers. All Cryoport Express ® Shippers are precision engineered assemblies that are reliable, cost-effective and reusable or recyclable. Our liquid nitrogen dry vapor Cryoport Express ® Shippers utilize an innovative application of ‘dry vapor’ liquid nitrogen technology and, generally, include a SmartPak II TM Condition Monitoring System. Cryoport Express ® Shippers meet International Air Transport Association (“IATA”) requirements for transport, including Class 6.2 infectious substances. Cryoport Express ® Shippers are also International Safe Transit Association (“ISTA”) “Transit Tested” certified. Cryoport Express ® dry vapor shippers are validated to maintain stable temperatures of minus 150° Celsius and below for up to ten days in dynamic shipping conditions.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should consider carefully the risks discussed below, together with the risks under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as well as the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. Our business, prospects, financial condition, or operating results could be harmed by any of these risks, as well as other risks not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial. The trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and, as a result, you may lose all or part of your investment. The risks discussed below also include forward-looking statements and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. See the section entitled “Forward-Looking Information.”

 

Risks Related to this Offering

 

Future sales of shares of our common stock may depress the price of our shares and be dilutive to our existing stockholders.

 

We cannot predict whether future issuances of shares of our common stock or the availability of shares for resale in the open market will decrease the market price per share of our common stock. As of January 24, 2019, there were 30,399,182 shares of our common stock outstanding. Substantially all of these shares of common stock are eligible for trading in the public market. The market price of our common stock may decline if our stockholders sell a large number of shares of our common stock in the public market, including the shares offered by the selling stockholder in this offering, or the market perceives that such sales may occur.

 

As of January 24, 2019, we could also issue up to an additional 11,844,349 shares of our common stock, including 1,974,513 shares to be issued upon the exercise of outstanding warrants and 9,869,836 shares upon exercise of outstanding options or reserved for future issuance under our stock incentive plans. The exercise of any options or warrants, the issuance of our common stock in connection with acquisitions and other issuances of our common stock could have an adverse effect on the market price of the shares of our common stock.

 

To the extent that we raise additional funds through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities will result in dilution to our stockholders. Investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our common stock, or securities convertible or exchangeable into common stock, in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share paid by investors in this offering. In addition, if the holders of our outstanding options or warrants exercise such securities, you may incur further dilution.

 

We may have to pay liquidated damages to the selling stockholder, which would increase our expenses and reduce our cash resources.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, subject to certain limited exceptions, if the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part has not been declared effective within the time periods specified in the SPA or we otherwise fail to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement (subject to certain allowable grace periods), we will be required to pay the selling stockholder liquidated damages until the applicable event is cured. There can be no assurance that the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part will be declared effective by the SEC or will remain effective for the time periods necessary to avoid payment of liquidated damages. Any payment of liquidated damages would increase our expenses, reduce our cash resources and may limit our ability to grow our business.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

 

This prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, contain forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

 

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” or the negative of these terms or other similar words. These statements are only predictions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We discuss many of the risks in greater detail under the heading “Risk Factors” in this prospectus and in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, which you should review carefully. Also, these forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this prospectus. Forward-looking statements include, but are not necessarily limited to, those relating to:

 

§ our intention to introduce new products or services;

 

§ our expectations about securing strategic relationships with global couriers or large clinical research organizations;

 

§ our future capital needs;

 

§ results of our research and development efforts; and

 

§ approval of our patent applications.

 

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond our control. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated as a result of the factors described in “Risk Factors” in this prospectus, and detailed in our other SEC filings incorporated by reference herein, including among others:

 

§ the effect of regulation by United States and foreign governmental agencies;

 

§ research and development efforts, including delays in developing, or the failure to develop, our products;

 

§ the development of competing or more effective products by other parties;

 

§ uncertainty of market acceptance of our products;

 

§ errors in business planning attributable to insufficient market size or segmentation data;

 

§ problems that we may face in manufacturing, marketing and distributing our products;

 

§ problems that we may encounter in further development of Cryoport Express ® Solutions, which includes the cloud-based logistics management software branded as Cryoportal TM ;

 

§ our inability to raise additional capital when needed;

 

§ delays in the issuance of, or the failure to obtain, patents for certain of our products and technologies;

 

§ problems with important suppliers and strategic business partners; and

 

§ difficulty or delays in establishing marketing relationships with international couriers.

 

Because of these risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this prospectus might not transpire. Except for our ongoing obligations to disclose material information as required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. All of the above factors are difficult to predict, contain uncertainties that may materially affect our actual results and may be beyond our control. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for our management to predict all of such factors or to assess the effect of each factor on our business. You are advised to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in the reports we file with the SEC.

This prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, also contain estimates and other industry and statistical data developed by independent parties and by us relating to market size, growth, and segmentation of markets. This data involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. While we believe the data to be reliable, industry and statistical data is subject to variations and cannot be verified due to limits on the availability and reliability of data inputs, the voluntary nature of the data gathering process and other limitations and uncertainties inherent in any statistical survey. We have not independently verified these estimates generated by independent third parties. In addition, projections, assumptions, and estimates of our future performance and the future performance of the industries in which we operate are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described in “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus. These and other factors could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in the estimates made by the independent parties and by us.

SELLING STOCKHOLDER

 

Unless the context otherwise requires, as used in this prospectus, “selling stockholder” includes the selling stockholder listed below and its pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest.

 

We have prepared this prospectus to allow the selling stockholder to sell or otherwise dispose of, from time to time, up to 2,372,998 shares of our common stock, consisting of (i) 1,000,000 shares of common stock (the “Investment Shares”) and (ii) up to 1,372,998 shares of common stock (the “Note Shares”) issuable upon conversion of our floating rate convertible notes (the “Notes”), in each case, pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase and Registration Rights Agreement (the “SPA”), dated December 14, 2018, by and among us and the selling stockholder. Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, we have agreed to register the Investment Shares and the Note Shares by filing a registration statement with the SEC.

 

Prior to the maturity, the selling stockholder will have the right to convert all or any portion of the Notes, including any accrued but unpaid interest, into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $13.11 per share (the “Conversion Price”), subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the Notes. If, at any time on or prior to December 14, 2021, the volume-weighted average price of our common stock exceeds $17.48 for 15 consecutive trading days and certain additional conditions are satisfied, the Notes will automatically convert into shares of our common stock at the Conversion Price, subject to certain conditions.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

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

 

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

 

§ block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and

 

§ 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;

 

§ in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the selling stockholder to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;

 

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

 

§ a combination of any such methods of sale; or

 

§ any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The selling stockholder may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

 

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholder may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated.

 

In connection with the sale of the shares or interests therein, the selling stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholder may also sell shares short and deliver these shares to close out its short positions, or loan or pledge the shares to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholder may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the selling stockholder will not engage in short sales of the shares at any time that the selling stockholder holds any Notes.

 

The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the shares. The Company has agreed to indemnify the selling stockholder against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

The selling stockholder may be deemed to be statutory underwriters under the Securities Act. In addition, any broker-dealers who act in connection with the sale of the shares hereunder may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by them and profit on any resale of the shares as principal may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Because the selling stockholder may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act, it may be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder.

 

The selling stockholder has acknowledged that it understands its obligations to comply with the provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder relating to stock manipulation, particularly Regulation M.

 

  10  

 

 

The Company agreed to keep this prospectus effective with respect to shares of common stock offered by the selling stockholder hereunder until the earlier of the selling stockholder’s sale of such shares pursuant to this prospectus or until such shares may be sold without restrictions or other limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor provision) under the Securities Act (including, without limitation, volume restrictions) and without the need for current public information required by Rule 144(c)(1).

 

We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholder and have informed the selling stockholder of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

 

There can be no assurance that the selling stockholder will sell any or all of the shares of common stock registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

We are not aware of any plans, arrangements or understandings between the selling stockholder and any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent regarding the sale of shares of common stock by the selling stockholder.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

 

Our authorized capital consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which 30,399,182 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding as of January 24, 2019, and 2,500,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which we have designated 800,000 shares as Class A Preferred Stock and 585,000 shares as Class B Preferred Stock, none of which are currently issued and outstanding. The following description is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended to date, and our Amended and Restated Bylaws, as currently in effect, copies of which are referenced as exhibits herein, and the provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes.

 

Common Stock

 

Subject to the preferential rights of any outstanding preferred stock, each holder of common stock is entitled to receive ratable dividends, if any, as may be declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. As of the date of this prospectus, no dividends on common stock have been declared or paid by the Company. The Company intends to employ all available funds for the development of its business and, accordingly, does not intend to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record. There are no cumulative voting rights in the election of directors. Thus, the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of common stock can elect all of our directors if they choose to do so.

 

The holders of our common stock have no preemptive, subscription, conversion or redemption rights. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive our assets pro rata.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Our board of directors is empowered, without further action by stockholders, to issue from time to time one or more series of preferred stock, with such designations, rights, preferences and limitations as the board of directors may determine by resolution. The rights, preferences and limitations of separate series of preferred stock may differ with respect to such matters among such series as may be determined by our board of directors, including, without limitation, the rate of dividends, method and nature of payment of dividends, terms of redemption, amounts payable on liquidation, sinking fund provisions (if any), conversion rights (if any) and voting rights. Certain issuances of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our company that some stockholders may believe is not in their interest.

 

Nevada Anti-Takeover Law and Charter and Bylaws Provisions

 

Nevada Revised Statutes sections 78.378 to 78.3793 provide state regulation over the acquisition of a controlling interest in certain Nevada corporations unless the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation provide that the provisions of these sections do not apply. This statute currently does not apply to our Company because in order to be applicable, we would need to have a specified number of Nevada residents as shareholders, and we would have to do business in Nevada directly or through an affiliate.

 

In addition, our amended and restated articles of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws contain provisions that may make the acquisition of our company more difficult, including, but not limited to, the following:

 

§ requiring at least 75% of outstanding voting stock in order to call a special meeting of stockholders;

 

§ not allowing stockholders to take action by written consent in lieu of a meeting;

 

§ setting forth specific procedures regarding how our stockholders may present proposals or nominate directors for election at stockholder meetings;

 

§ requiring advance notice and duration of ownership requirements for stockholder proposals;

 

§ permitting our board of directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval; and

 

§ limiting the rights of stockholders to amend our bylaws.

Item 14. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution.

 

The following sets forth the estimated costs and expenses, all of which shall be borne by us, in connection with the offering of the securities pursuant to this registration statement. All the amounts shown are estimates except for the SEC registration fee.

 

 

 

  Amount  
SEC registration fee   $ 2,660.37  
Accounting fees and expenses     15,000.00

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

Under the Nevada Revised Statutes and our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, our directors will have no personal liability to us or our stockholders for monetary damages incurred as the result of the breach or alleged breach by a director of his “duty of care.” This provision does not apply to the directors’ (i) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law, (ii) acts or omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the corporation or its stockholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the part of the director, (iii) approval of any transaction from which a director derives an improper personal benefit, (iv) acts or omissions that show a reckless disregard for the director’s duty to the corporation or its stockholders in circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have been aware, in the ordinary course of performing a director’s duties, of a risk of serious injury to the corporation or its stockholders, (v) acts or omissions that constituted an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the director’s duty to the corporation or its stockholders, or (vi) approval of an unlawful dividend, distribution, stock repurchase or redemption. This provision would generally absolve directors of personal liability for negligence in the performance of duties, including gross negligence.

 

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

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

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

 

(i)            To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act 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 Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent 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), (ii) and (iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(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.

 

 

 

 

(5)         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.

 

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