PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

The following summary highlights some information from this prospectus. It is not complete and does not contain all of the information that you should consider before making an investment decision. You should read this entire prospectus, including the “Risk Factors” section on page 7 of this prospectus and the disclosures to which that section refers you, the financial statements and related notes and the other more detailed information appearing elsewhere or incorporated by reference into this prospectus before investing in any of the securities described in this prospectus.

Overview

We are a publicly traded, multi-disciplinary technology company that we believe is an industry-leading innovator in digital financial technologies. USBC develops transformative financial services, including digital assets and banking solutions as well as non-invasive health monitoring research. We have implemented a Bitcoin treasury strategy to bolster development and research across its various divisions. See “—Bitcoin Treasury Strategy” below. A key focus of USBC is the further development of the USBC tokenized deposit offering, a tokenized representation of a U.S.-dollar denominated bank deposit account that operates on blockchain technology and is embedded with digital identity. With a focus on inclusion, innovation, and risk management, we are dedicated to creating long-term shareholder value in a rapidly evolving financial landscape.

Corporate History and Development

Until August 2025, we operated under the name Know Labs, Inc. and our primary focus was on non-invasive diagnostic and sensor technologies. In August 2025, in connection with the closing of a $125 million strategic controlling-interest acquisition by Goldeneye 1995 LLC (an affiliate of our newly-appointed Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Greg Kidd), we issued 357.8 million shares of our common stock in exchange for 1,000 Bitcoin and $15 million in cash. Mr. Kidd and his veteran team of finance and technology leaders who are part of the USBC founding team collectively bring with them decades of technology and fintech experience.

Following the closing of the capital investment by Goldeneye, we changed our corporate name to USBC, Inc. and our ticker symbol to “USBC” on the NYSE American. Our corporate evolution reflects a strategic pivot to the further development of a financial-technology platform and establishment of a digital asset treasury reserve while continuing to maintain technology capabilities from our legacy sensor business.

In October 2025, we entered into a collaboration with Uphold HQ Inc. (“Uphold”) and Vast Bank, N.A. (“Vast Bank”), which will serve as the initial issuing bank for our tokenized-deposit offering. Uphold is a financial technology company that provides modern infrastructure for on-chain payments, banking and investments. We are currently finalizing technical and regulatory readiness and negotiating terms of a definitive strategic partnership agreement with Vast Bank and Uphold in preparation for the future commercial launch of the U.S. Bank Coin (“USBC”) tokenized deposit offering.

Bitcoin Treasury Strategy

At Closing, we announced the establishment of our Bitcoin treasury, which operates in parallel with our continuing research program and activities in the non-invasive medical technology space and, when launched, the USBC tokenized deposit offering. We view our Bitcoin treasury as long-term holdings and we intend to strategically utilize Bitcoin as a primary treasury reserve asset to generate yield to help support the current business and future growth and expansion of new business lines. As part of our Bitcoin yield generation strategy trading activities, we enter into option derivative contracts on our Bitcoin holdings. We have appointed Hyrcanian Asset Management, LLC (the “Manager”) to provide discretionary treasury management services with respect to our Bitcoin treasury strategy, specifically buying and selling call options on Bitcoin (the “Program”).

Pursuant to the Program, we enter into short-term arrangements that result in obtaining the right to receive or obligation to deliver a fixed amount of Bitcoin crypto assets in the future. Our Bitcoin treasury trading strategy is intended to boost our Bitcoin holdings through premiums collected on options, with the net maximum notional exposure not to exceed the balance of the Bitcoin treasury holdings. While the ability to make further digital investments on our behalf is one of the premises of establishing the Manager, we have not and do not currently intend to utilize the Manager to do so.

Table of Contents

We believe our combination of a strategic Bitcoin reserve with a focus on the non-invasive medical technology and financial technology spaces positions us to offer a unique opportunity for long-term value creation.

Custody of our Bitcoin

As of December 30, 2025, our Bitcoin holdings of $89.5 million represent the principal component of our consolidated balance sheet, consisting of approximately 1,015 Bitcoin.

We hold substantially all of our Bitcoin with a U.S.-based, institutional grade custodian that has a demonstrated record of regulatory compliance and information security. As a result, the primary counterparty risk we are exposed to with respect to our Bitcoin is performance obligations under the various custody arrangements which we have entered into with this custodian. Our custodial services agreement specifies that the private keys that control our Bitcoin will be held in offline or cold storage which is designed to mitigate risks that a system may be susceptible to when connected to the internet. Our custodial contract also contains liability provisions which hold our custodian liable for its failure to safekeep our Bitcoin.

Our Bitcoin is controllable only by the possessor of both the unique public key and private keys relating to the local or online digital wallet in which the Bitcoin is held. Private keys used to access our Bitcoin balances are not widely distributed and are all held on hardware by our third party custodian at facilities within the U.S. and internationally. The cold-storage vaults used by our custodian use multilayered physical security, including biometric access controls and the vaults are geographically dispersed and access-controlled.

All of our Bitcoin holdings with the third-party custodian are held in segregated accounts. Our third-party custodian is obligated by our contractual arrangement with them to keep timely and accurate bookkeeping records of our Bitcoin holdings under rigorous internal controls. As an institutional client, we have the ability to generate statements that contain account-level reporting which serves as an audit and verification mechanism to allow the existence of our crypto assets to be verified by us or our independent auditor. We do not have custody of Bitcoin held for clients. We do not self-custody any of our Bitcoin.

Tokenized Deposit Program

Our primary focus is on the further development of our tokenized deposit program, alongside our legacy non-invasive sensor technology business. The tokenized deposit program has been in development from its inception by our Chairman and CEO, Greg Kidd for the better part of a decade. The USBC tokenized deposit offering will incorporate embedded digital identity and leverage blockchain technology. It is being designed to support financial inclusion and innovation, through partnerships with banks and distribution partners such as Uphold, a pioneering infrastructure provider for on-chain finance.

Unlike a stablecoin, USBC is not a newly-created digital asset backed by reserves, nor is USBC a deposit token. USBC is a tokenized representation of a bank deposit offered by banking institutions to their customers. Other tokenized deposit products exist, but USBC is the first to provide direct access to end users, made possible by its permissioned blockchain and risk management tech stack. USBC’s API-centric approach means that developers building on the platform can offer their customers digital U.S. dollars and their own U.S. bank deposit account worldwide. Since USBC is a representation of an actual deposit account, a bank can pay interest to the holder, just as it might on a typical interest-bearing checking or savings account.

USBC is underpinned by a blockchain ledger that serves as the single source of truth for all tokenized deposit transactions, augmented by a rule engine which provides additional controls on top of the base blockchain and connects directly to the banking system. This setup allows the banking partner to maintain regulatory oversight and operational control while still leveraging the transparency and immutability of the underlying blockchain. The ledger is permissioned, meaning that on USBC’s private chain, nodes are operated by USBC. On public chains, transactions occur through public nodes but USBC’s rule engine enforces compliance and access controls. The blockchain network is governed by principles that ensure it remains secure, compliant with regulations and aligned with the interests of all stakeholders. A governance process for software updates is in place that mirrors enterprise IT and blockchain best practices.

Table of Contents

The issuing bank will commit to clear and transparent rules for the USBC program and will maintain ultimate control and responsibility for the platform which is subject to regulatory oversight by banking regulators. The USBC program will be integrated into the bank’s overall corporate governance structure and will be subject to oversight by the same audit and risk committees that oversee banking operations, ensuring that the highest level of the organization, the Board of Directors, is aware of and accountable for the program. In addition to governance conducted by the participating bank, the USBC network will undergo regular third-party audits and reviews, similar to those performed on traditional core banking systems, with full results made available to network participants and regulators to ensure transparency and trust.

Unlike permissionless cryptocurrency systems where anyone can create an address and transact, the USBC system contains a trust and identity management layer which requires users to build a verified digital identity before they can access or transact on the network. To open a USBC account, a user will need to go through an onboarding process that collects identity information and verifiable credentials which can be issued or validated by trusted third parties. Before any transaction is submitted to the blockchain, it must be reviewed and signed by the ledger’s rules engine, which enforces a configurable set of policies tied to user identity level, regulatory obligations and risk controls. Once funds are in a USBC tokenized deposit account, funds are immediately available, enabling same-day access to traditional financial infrastructure including wire transfers, ACH payments or spending via debit rails. There is no need to withdraw funds via an exchange or conversion to fiat currency through third party services, eliminating costly ramp fees, reducing counterparty risk and streamlining post-trade fund management.

The technology stack for USBC will be a hybrid of a traditional banking system and blockchain components. Developers and partners like Uphold will see a familiar blockchain environment to build upon that is enriched with identity and compliance layers not found on public chains. The user will experience the system through user-friendly banking apps or web interfaces that abstract away the blockchain complexity. Every transaction will be recorded as a blockchain event on a ledger with each on-chain transfer reflecting a corresponding update in the tokenized deposit account transaction history.

In preparation for the future retail launch of USBC, we will conduct a structured pilot program to evaluate the USBC tokenized deposit offering with a limited group of internal users, the results of which will inform our decisions regarding timing of when the offering is expected to become available to retail customers. The pilot program will not be a consumer offering, will not be available to the public and is intended solely to evaluate product performance, functionality, user experience and operational requirements in a non-production environment. The targeted date of the retail launch will be scheduled once the pilot program concludes and will incorporate the outcomes of the pilot program subject to requisite regulatory, board and bank partner approvals.

Sales Agreement with Jones

As previously disclosed in the prospectus supplement dated December 31, 2024, we entered into a Capital on Demand Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with JonesTrading Institutional Services LLC, (“Jones”) as sales agent, may offer and sell shares of our common stock (the “Shares”), having an initial aggregate offering price of up to a maximum of $5,000,000, from time to time, through an “at the market offering” program.

On September 5, 2025, we determined to increase the amount available for sale under the Sales Agreement, up to an aggregate offering price of $14,500,000. The offer and sale of the Shares will be made pursuant to our effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-276246) in the amount of $18,000,000 initially filed with the SEC on December 22, 2023 and declared effective by the SEC on January 11, 2024, the related prospectus supplement, dated December 31, 2024, and the additional prospectus supplement filed with the SEC on September 5, 2025 in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares.

Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company

We are a “smaller reporting company,” meaning that the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million and our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company if either (i) the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million or (ii) our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates was less than $700 million. For so long as we remain a smaller reporting company, we are permitted and intend to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

Corporate Information

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 8, 1998. At the Closing, we announced a strategic transition into a multi-disciplinary enterprise that will continue our current research program and activities in the non-invasive medical technology space, in parallel with strategic investments in pioneering technologies spanning digital assets and banking, including our newly established Bitcoin treasury strategy and the USBC tokenized deposit offering. In connection with the strategic shift, our board of directors approved the change in the name of the Company to USBC, Inc. and the change in trading symbol of the Company to “USBC” on the NYSE American, which became effective on August 15, 2025.

Our executive office is located at 300 E 2^nd Street, 15^th Floor Reno, NV 89501. Our telephone number is 775-239-7673 and our principal website address is located at www.usbc.xyz. The information on our website is not incorporated by reference in and is not deemed a part of this prospectus.

All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, including statements regarding general economic and market conditions, our future results of operations and financial condition, business strategy, and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein are only predictions. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on our current expectations, assumptions, and projections about future events. Although we believe that the expectations, assumptions, and projections on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, they nonetheless could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those expectations, assumptions, and projections also could be inaccurate. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other important factors, some of which are beyond our control, 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, including risks described in the section titled “Risk Factors” incorporated by reference into this prospectus from our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K, and all other information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and in our other filings with the SEC.

Other sections in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein include additional factors that could harm our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ from those contained in, or implied by, any forward-looking statements. Given these uncertainties, current or prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements.

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering the shares of common stock previously issued to permit the resale of these shares of common stock by the Selling Stockholders from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the Selling Stockholders of the shares of common stock. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the shares of common stock.

The Selling Stockholders may sell all or a portion of the shares of common stock beneficially owned by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the shares of common stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the Selling Stockholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions. The shares of common stock may be sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block transactions,

	·	on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the time of sale;
	·	in the over-the-counter market;
	·	in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market;
	·	through the writing of options, whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise;
	·	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;
	·	sales pursuant to Rule 144;
	·	broker-dealers may agree with the selling securityholder 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 pursuant to applicable law.

If the Selling Stockholders effect such transactions by selling shares of common stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the Selling Stockholders or commissions from purchasers of the shares of common stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal (which discounts, concessions or commissions as to particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved). In connection with sales of the shares of common stock or otherwise, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of common stock in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares of common stock short and deliver shares of common stock covered by this prospectus to close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales. The Selling Stockholders may also loan or pledge shares of common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such shares.

The Selling Stockholders may 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 pursuant to this prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, amending, if necessary, 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 and donate the shares of common stock in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

Table of Contents

The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution of the shares of common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commission paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. At the time a particular offering of the shares of common stock is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed which will set forth the aggregate amount of shares of common stock being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any broker-dealers or agents, any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the Selling Stockholders and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to broker-dealers.

Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of common stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares of common stock may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.

The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or another exemption, if available, rather than under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders shall have the sole and absolute discretion not to accept any purchase offer or make any sale of shares if it deems the purchase price to be unsatisfactory at any particular time.

The Selling Stockholders and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of common stock by the Selling Stockholders and any other participating person. Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of common stock to engage in market- making activities with respect to the shares of common stock. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock.

We will pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of common stock pursuant to the registration rights agreement, estimated to be $96,650 in total, including, without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws; provided, however, that a Selling Stockholders will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any. We will indemnify the Selling Stockholders against liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act, in accordance with the registration rights agreements, or the Selling Stockholders will be entitled to contribution. We may be indemnified by the Selling Stockholders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the Selling Stockholders specifically for use in this prospectus, in accordance with the related registration rights agreement, or we may be entitled to contribution.

Once sold under the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of common stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

We are a Nevada corporation. The Nevada Revised Statutes, or NRS, and certain provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws under certain circumstances provide for indemnification of our directors, officers, employees and agents against certain liabilities which they may incur in such capacities. A summary of the circumstances in which such indemnification is set forth below, but this description is qualified in its entirety by reference to our articles of incorporation and bylaws and to the relevant statutory provisions, including NRS 78.7502, 78.751 and 78.752.

In general, our articles of incorporation provide that any officer, director, employee or agent may be indemnified against expenses, fines, settlements or judgments arising in connection with a legal proceeding to which such person is a party, if that person acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Our bylaws further provide that each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact such person is or was a director or officer of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director or officer of another enterprise, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith.

NRS 78.751 provides that indemnification may not be made to or on behalf of any director or officer finally adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of any appeals taken therefrom, to be liable for intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law if such intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law was material to the cause of action. However, NRS 78.752 permits us to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of our directors, officers, employees or agents against any liability asserted against or incurred by such person in any such capacity or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not we would have the power to indemnify such person against such liabilities.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our articles of incorporation eliminate or limit the liability of our directors to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of a director’s fiduciary duty as a director. NRS 78.138(7) further provides that, subject to limited statutory exceptions and unless the articles of incorporation or an amendment thereto (in each case filed on or after October 1, 2003) provide for greater individual liability, a director or officer is not individually liable to a Nevada corporation or its stockholders or creditors for any damages as a result of any act or failure to act in his or her capacity as a director or officer unless the presumption established by NRS 78.138(3) has been rebutted and it is proven that (i) his or her act or failure to act constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties as a director or officer, and (ii) such breach involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law.

II-1

Table of Contents

We have entered into separate indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers. Each indemnification agreement provides, among other things, for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law and our articles of incorporation and bylaws against any and all expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement of any claim. The indemnification agreements will provide for the advancement or payment of all expenses to the indemnitee and for reimbursement to us if it is found that such indemnitee is not entitled to such indemnification under applicable law and our articles of incorporation and bylaws.

We have a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy in place pursuant to which its directors and officers are insured against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed 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, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed hereby in the Securities Act and we will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 17. Undertakings

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(a) 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 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 (b)(1)(i), (ii), and (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 (15 U.S.C. 78m or 78o(d)) that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

(b) 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.

(c) 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.

(d) 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 (§230.430A of this chapter), 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.

(e) 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

(f) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) 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.

(g) 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 SEC 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.
