Overview

 

Tenax Therapeutics was originally formed as a New Jersey corporation in 1967 under the name Rudmer, David & Associates, Inc., and subsequently changed its name to Synthetic Blood International, Inc. Effective June 30, 2008, we changed the domiciliary state of the corporation to Delaware and changed the Company name to Oxygen Biotherapeutics, Inc. On September 19, 2014, we changed the Company name to Tenax Therapeutics, Inc.

 

On November 13, 2013, we acquired a license granting Life Newco, our wholly-owned subsidiary, an exclusive, sublicensable right to develop and commercialize pharmaceutical products containing levosimendan, 2.5 mg/ml concentrate for solution for infusion / 5ml vial in the United States and Canada. On October 9, 2020 and January 25, 2022, we entered into amendments to the license to include two product dose forms containing levosimendan, in capsule and solid dosage form, and a subcutaneously administered product containing levosimendan, subject to specified limitations.

 

On January 15, 2021, we acquired 100% of the equity of PHPrecisionMed Inc., a Delaware corporation, or PHPM, with PHPM surviving as our wholly-owned subsidiary. As a result of the merger, we plan to develop and commercialize pharmaceutical products containing imatinib for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension, or PAH.

 

The address of the principal executive offices of Tenax Therapeutics is ONE Copley Parkway, Suite 490, Morrisville, North Carolina 27560 and telephone number is (919) 855-2100.

 

Strategy

 

Our principal business objective is to identify, develop, and commercialize late-stage pharmaceutical therapeutic products for serious cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases with high unmet medical need. The key elements of our business strategy are outlined below.

 

 

·

Efficiently conduct clinical development to establish clinical proof of principle in new indications, refine formulation, and commence Phase 3 testing of our current product candidates.

 

 

 

 

 

Levosimendan and imatinib have been approved and prescribed globally for more than 20 years, but we believe their mechanisms of action have not been fully exploited, despite promising evidence they may significantly improve the lives of patients with pulmonary hypertension. We are conducting clinical development with the intent to establish proof of beneficial activity in cardiopulmonary diseases in which these therapeutics would be expected to have benefit for patients with diseases for which either no pharmaceutical therapies are approved at all, or in the case of PAH, where numerous expensive therapies generally offer a modest reduction of symptoms. Our focus is primarily on designing and executing formulation improvements, protecting these innovations with patents and other forms of exclusivity, and employing innovative clinical trial science to establish a robust foundation for subsequent development, product approval, and commercialization.

 

 

 

 

·

 

Efficiently explore new high-potential therapeutic applications, in particular where expedited regulatory pathways are available, leveraging third-party research collaborations and our results from related areas.

 

 

 

 

 

Levosimendan has shown promise in multiple disease areas in its two decades of use following its approval. In order to achieve our objectives of developing these medicines for new groups of patients, we have established collaborative research relationships with investigators from leading research and clinical institutions, and our strategic partners. Additionally, we believe we will be able to leverage clinical safety data and preclinical results from some programs to support accelerated clinical development efforts in other areas, saving substantial development time and resources compared to traditional drug development.

 ·

Continue to expand our intellectual property portfolio.

 

 

 

 

 

Our intellectual property, and the confidentiality of all our company information, is important to our business and we take significant steps to protect its value. We have ongoing research and development efforts, both through internal activities and through collaborative research activities with others, which aim to develop new intellectual property and enable us to file patent applications that cover new applications of our existing technologies, alone or in combination with existing therapies, as well as other product candidates.

 

 

 

 

·

 Enter into licensing or product co-development arrangements.

 

 

 

 

 

In addition to our internal development efforts, an important part of our product development strategy is to work with collaborators and partners to accelerate product development, maintain our low development and business operations costs, and broaden our commercialization capabilities globally.

 

As we focus on the development of our existing product candidates, we also continue to position ourselves to execute upon licensing and other partnering opportunities. To do so, we will need to continue to maintain our strategic direction, manage and deploy our available cash efficiently and strengthen our collaborative research development and partner relationships.

 

On January 4, 2022, the Company was issued US Pat. No. 11,213,524, entitled PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS FOR SUBCUTANEOUS ADMINISTRATION OF LEVOSIMENDAN, which is directed towards the use of levosimendan via subcutaneous administration for treating a subject having a health condition of any kind, such as heart failure, pulmonary hypertension including PH-HFpEF, chronic kidney disease, stroke, or other health conditions. The patent is expected to expire no earlier than 2039, exclusive of any possible extensions. The Company also has a PCT international application pending, with a U.S. counterpart already under examination, that describes and claims methods of treating the Company’s first intended clinical indication, PH-HFpEF, by providing levosimendan by any route of administration.

 

Recent Developments

 

Private Placement of Warrants

 

On May 17, 2022, Tenax entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Armistice Capital Master Fund, Ltd. (the “Investor”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Investor 10,596,027 units (“Units”) in a private placement at a purchase price of $0.755 per Unit (the “Private Placement”). Each Unit consisted of one unregistered pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 (collectively the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) and one unregistered warrant to purchase one share of common stock (collectively the “Series E Warrants” and together with the Pre-Funded Warrants, the “Warrants”). In the aggregate, 21,192,054 shares of the Company’s common stock are underlying the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”). The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of the Private Placement were approximately $8.0 million.

 

Each Pre-Funded Warrant has an exercise price of $0.0001 per share of common stock, is immediately exercisable, may be exercised at any time until exercised in full and is subject to customary adjustments. Each Series E Warrant has an exercise price of $0.63 per share of common stock, is immediately exercisable, will expire five and one-half years from the date of issuance and is subject to customary adjustments. The Warrants may not be exercised if the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock beneficially owned by the holder (together with its affiliates) would exceed 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock immediately after exercise. However, the holder may increase (upon 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to the Company) or decrease such percentage, provided that in no event such percentage exceeds 9.99%.

 

Also on May 17, 2022, and in connection with the Private Placement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Investor, pursuant to which the Company agreed to register for resale the Warrant Shares within 120 days following the date of the Registration Rights Agreement.

Table of Contents

 

Under certain circumstances, including, but not limited to, (i) if the registration statement is not filed by the earlier of 45 days after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement (ii) if the registration statement has not been declared effective (A) by the 120th day after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement (or, in the event of a “full review” by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the 150th day after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement) or (B) within five trading days following the date the Company is notified by the SEC that the registration statement will not be reviewed or is no longer subject to further review and comments then the Company has agreed to pay the Investor, as partial liquidated damages, an amount equal to 1.0% of the Investor’s aggregate subscription amount paid pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

 

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company entered into a warrant amendment agreement (the “Warrant Amendment Agreement”) with the Investor pursuant to which the Company agreed to amend certain previously issued warrants held by the Investor, as follows:

 

 

i.

the warrants issued on July 8, 2021 to purchase 4,773,269 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.97 per share, were amended by reducing the existing exercise price to $0.63 and extending the termination date of the warrant to January 8, 2029;

 

 

 

 

ii.

the Series B warrants issued on July 8, 2020 to purchase 3,175,924 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.903 per share, were amended by extending the termination date of the warrant to January 8, 2028;

 

 

 

 

iii.

the Series C warrants issued on July 8, 2020 to purchase 4,607,692 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.903 per share, were amended by extending the termination date of the warrant to January 8, 2028;

 

 

 

 

iv.

the warrants issued on March 13, 2020 to purchase 2,360,313 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.04 per share, were amended by reducing the existing exercise price to $0.63 and extending the termination date of the warrant to September 15, 2027; and

 

 

 

 

v.

the Series 2 warrants issued on December 11, 2018 to purchase 2,072,538 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.93 per share, were amended by reducing the existing exercise price to $0.63Price and extending the termination date of the warrant to December 11, 2025.

 

All of the warrants and pre-funded warrants held by the Investor are subject to beneficial ownership limitations (9.99% for all pre-funded warrants and either 4.99% or 9.99%, as set forth in each respective warrant) that prohibit the Investor from exercising any portion of any warrant to the extent that, following such exercise, the Investor’s ownership of the Company’s common stock would exceed the relevant beneficial ownership limitation.  The beneficial ownership limitations, taken as a whole, cap the Investor’s ownership in the Company’s common stock at 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares, other than to the extent the Investor were to acquire additional shares on the open market.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in any securities offered pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risk factors incorporated by reference from our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and all other information contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Exchange Act, and the risk factors and other information contained in any applicable prospectus supplement, before acquiring any of such securities. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, results of operations, financial condition, and prospects could be materially adversely affected, the trading price of our common stock could decline significantly, and you might lose all or part of your investment. You should also refer to our financial statements and the notes to those statements, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

 

Sales of shares of our common stock by the selling stockholder may cause our stock price to decline.

 

As of May 19, 2022, we had 25,206,914 shares of common stock outstanding. Sales of substantial amounts of our shares of common stock in the public market by the selling stockholder, or the perception that those sales may occur, could cause the market price of shares of our common stock to decline and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional shares of our common stock.

 

 
10

Table of Contents

 

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock by the selling stockholder. To the extent we receive proceeds from the exercise of warrants held by the selling stockholder, we will use those proceeds for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

 

We may receive up to a total of $6,676,566.61 in gross proceeds if all of the Warrants are exercised hereunder for cash. However, as we are unable to predict the timing or amount of potential exercises of the Warrants, we have not allocated any proceeds of such exercises to any particular purpose. Accordingly, all such proceeds are allocated to working capital. Pursuant to conditions set forth in the Warrants, the Warrants are exercisable under certain circumstances on a cashless basis, and should a selling stockholder elect to exercise on a cashless basis we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock issued upon the cashless exercise of the Warrants.

 

The selling stockholder will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses they incur for brokerage, accounting, tax, or legal services, or any other expenses they incur in disposing of their shares. We will incur certain expenses in connection with the registration with the SEC of the shares of our common stock to be sold by the selling stockholder.

SELLING STOCKHOLDER

 

The common stock being offered by the selling stockholder are those issuable to the selling stockholder upon exercise of the Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuances of those Warrants, see “Summary — Recent Developments — Private Placement of Warrants” above. We are registering the shares of common stock underlying the Warrants in order to permit the selling stockholder to offer such shares for resale from time to time.

 

Except as described herein, the selling stockholder has not had any material relationship with us within the past three years. Armistice Capital, LLC (“Armistice”) is a significant indirect beneficial owner of the Company’s equity securities, which securities are directly held by the selling stockholder named herein, Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd. (the “Master Fund”). In the last three years, Master Fund has participated in offerings of the Company’s securities, as described under “Summary — Recent Developments — Private Placement of Warrants” in this prospectus, as well as (i) in July 2021, the Company issued and sold to Master Fund 4,773,269 units, each unit consisting of one unregistered pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of common stock and one unregistered warrant to purchase one share of common stock, in a private placement at a purchase price of $2.095 per unit, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $10.0 million; (ii) in July 2020, the Company issued and sold to the Master Fund an aggregate of 2,523,622 shares of common stock, 5,260,005 pre-funded warrants to purchase one share of common stock and 7,783,616 warrants to purchase one share of common stock, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $8.0 million; and (iii) in March 2020, the Company issued and sold to the Master Fund an aggregate of 750,000 shares of common stock, 1,610,313 pre-funded warrants to purchase one share of common stock and 2,360,313 warrants to purchase one share of common stock, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $2.75 million. Additionally, Keith Maher is a managing director of Armistice and a member of the Company’s board of directors and Steven Boyd is the managing member of Armistice, a director of the Master Fund, and a member of the Company’s board, and may be deemed to have indirect beneficial ownership of the Company’s equity securities that are directly held by the Master Fund.

 

The table below lists the selling stockholder and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholder. The second column lists the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholder, based on its ownership of the shares of common stock, warrants and pre-funded warrants, as of May 19, 2022, assuming exercise of the warrants and pre-funded warrants held by the selling stockholder on that date, without regard to any beneficial ownership limitations on exercises (such beneficial ownership limitations are described further below).

 

The third column lists the shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus by the selling stockholder.

 

In accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement with the selling stockholder, this prospectus generally covers the resale of the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, determined as if the Warrants were exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the date this registration statement was initially filed with the SEC, each as of the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date of determination and all subject to adjustment as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Warrants. The fourth and fifth columns assume the sale of all of the shares offered by the selling stockholder pursuant to this prospectus, and assume the exercise of the warrants and pre-funded warrants held by the selling stockholder on that date, without regard to any beneficial ownership limitations on exercises (such beneficial ownership limitations are described further below).

Table of Contents

 

Under the terms of the Warrants, the selling stockholder may not exercise the Warrants to the extent such exercise would cause such selling stockholder, together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of shares of common stock which would exceed 9.99% of our then-outstanding common stock following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants which have not been exercised. The numbers of shares in the columns below do not reflect this limitation. The selling stockholder may sell all, some or none of its shares in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution”.

 

Additionally, all of the other warrants and pre-funded warrants held by the Master Fund are also subject to beneficial ownership limitations (9.99% for all pre-funded warrants and either 4.99% or 9.99%, as set forth in each respective warrant) that prohibit the Master Fund from exercising any portion of any warrant to the extent that, following such exercise, the Master Fund’s ownership of the Company’s common stock would exceed the relevant beneficial ownership limitation.  The beneficial ownership limitations, taken as a whole, cap the Master Fund’s ownership in the Company’s common stock at 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares, other than to the extent the Master Fund were to acquire additional shares on the open market.

Based upon 25,206,914 shares of common stock outstanding on May 19, 2022. The number and percentage of shares beneficially owned is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under such rule, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which the person has sole or shared voting power or investment power and also any shares that the person has the right to acquire within 60 days of May 19, 2022 through the exercise of any stock options, warrants or other rights or the conversion of preferred stock. Any shares that a person has the right to acquire within 60 days are deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of such person but are not deemed outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

 

 

 

 

(2)

Master Fund and Steven Boyd share voting and dispositive power over 2,019,995 shares, 20,629,301 shares exercisable under pre-funded warrants and 27,585,763 shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants. Steven Boyd disclaims beneficial ownership of the reported securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. All of the warrants and pre-funded warrants held by the Master Fund are subject to beneficial ownership limitations (9.99% for all pre-funded warrants and either 4.99% or 9.99%, as set forth in each respective warrant) that prohibit the Master Fund from exercising any portion of any warrant to the extent that, following such exercise, the Master Fund’s ownership of the Company’s common stock would exceed the relevant beneficial ownership limitation.  The beneficial ownership limitations, taken as a whole, cap the Master Fund’s ownership in the Company’s common stock at 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares, other than to the extent the Master Fund were to acquire additional shares on the open market. Consequently, the selling stockholder is not able to exercise all of its warrants and pre-funded warrants due to the aforementioned beneficial ownership limitations, which are not reflected in the table above.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The selling stockholder of the securities and any of its pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest (the “selling stockholders”) may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC 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. A selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

 

 

·

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

 

·

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

 

·

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

 

·

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

 

·

privately negotiated transactions;

 

·

settlement of short sales;

 

·

in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such 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 stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

 

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the selling stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

 

                Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the selling stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the common stock by the selling stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders and have informed them 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).

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

               

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation and certain other persons serving at the request of the corporation in related capacities against amounts paid and expenses incurred in connection with an action or proceeding to which he or she is or is threatened to be made a party by reason of such position, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal proceeding, if such person had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. In the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification shall be made with respect to any matter as to which such person has been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the adjudicating court determines that such indemnification is proper under the circumstances.

 

Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that our directors and officers will be indemnified by us to the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law. In addition, the Certificate of Incorporation provides, as permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, that our directors will not be liable for monetary damages to us for breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors, unless they (i) violated their duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, (ii) acted, or failed to act, in good faith, (iii) acted with intentional misconduct, (iv) knowingly or intentionally violated the law, (v) authorized unlawful payments of dividends, unlawful stock purchases or unlawful redemptions, or (vi) derived an improper personal benefit from their actions as directors.

 

Our Bylaws also permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee, or agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions, regardless of whether Delaware General Corporation Law would permit indemnification. We have purchased a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that insures our directors and officers.

 

In addition, we have also entered into an indemnification agreement with certain of our directors and officers. The indemnification agreements require us to indemnify and hold harmless and advance expenses to each indemnitee in respect of acts or omissions occurring prior to the time the indemnitee ceases to be an officer and/or director of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. The rights provided in the indemnification agreements are in addition to the rights provided in our Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, and the Delaware General Corporation Law.

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 this 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 a prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of 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 this registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii), and (1)(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 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, 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.

 

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

 

(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 that is incorporated by reference in this 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.

Table of Contents

 

(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrants, 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.

 

(i) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

 

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) (1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

 

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus 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.
