PMGC Holdings Inc.
This prospectus relates to the offer and sale, from time to time, by the selling security holders identified in this prospectus (the “Selling Shareholders”) or their permitted transferees, of up to 559,261 shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), issuable upon the exercise of certain Common Stock Purchase Warrants issued to the Selling Shareholders (each, a “Warrant”) pursuant to the warrant inducement agreements (each, a “Warrant Inducement Agreement”) entered into between the Company and such Selling Shareholders dated January 27, 2025. Each of the Warrants has an exercise price of $4.7667 per share and will be exercisable at any time on or after the Shareholder Approval Date (as such term is defined in the Warrant, and such date, the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to 5:00pm (New York, New York time) on the five year anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date, provided that if such date is not a Trading Day (as such term is defined in the Warrant), the immediately following Trading Day but not thereafter.
This prospectus also covers any additional shares of Common Stock that may become issuable upon any anti-dilution adjustment pursuant to the terms of the Warrants issued to the Selling Shareholders by reason of stock splits, stock dividends and other events described therein.
See “Selling Shareholders” for additional information regarding the Selling Shareholders.
We are not selling any shares of our shares of Common Stock pursuant to this prospectus, and we will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares of our Common Stock by the Selling Shareholders. We will bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the Common Stock. The Selling Shareholders will bear all commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to their respective sales of Common Stock. We are registering the securities for resale pursuant to the Warrant Inducement Agreement. Our registration of the securities covered by this prospectus does not mean that the Selling Shareholders will offer or sell any of the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Warrant Inducement Agreement or the exercise of the Warrants. We cannot predict when and in what amounts or if the Warrants will be exercised. See the section of this prospectus entitled “Selling Shareholders” for more information. However, we will receive proceeds of an aggregate of approximately $2.7 million if the Selling Shareholders exercise all of their Warrants for cash. See “Use of Proceeds.”
On March 26, 2025, at the Company’s in-person Special Shareholders Meeting (“Special Shareholders Meeting”), the shareholders approved the issuance of the Warrant Shares issued under the Warrant Inducement Agreement and the adjustment terms within the Warrants.

Post closing of the asset sale, we changed the name of Elevai Skincare Inc. to PMGC Impasse Corp. on January 17, 2025. The Skincare asset divestiture enables us to dedicate more resources and time to advancing our initiatives and assets in larger markets with unmet needs, creating greater growth opportunities for the Company and its shareholders. Our efforts will focus on the clinical development of biotechnology assets through NorthStrive Biosciences Inc. while leveraging our R&D capabilities through PMGC Research Inc.

● | In December 2024, the Company dismissed TPS Thayer, LLC (“TPS Thayer”) as its independent registered public accounting firm and engaged HTL International, LLC (“HTL International”) as its replacement, reflecting the Company’s efforts to strengthen its financial oversight. HTL International and TPS Thayer had entered into a strategic collaboration in November 2024, in which TPS Thayer’s audit partners and team members transitioned to HTL. |
● | On November 27, 2024, the Company effected a 1-for-200 reverse stock split, aligning its share structure with the compliance requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). |
The reverse stock split was on a ratio of two hundred old common shares for every one share of new post reverse split Common Stock.

Corporate History and Structure
PMGC Holdings Inc. was originally incorporated in Delaware in June 2020 under the name Reactive Medical Labs Inc. In June 2021, we entered into a stock transfer agreement with Reactive Medical Inc., a Canadian company, whereby we acquired substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Reactive Medical Inc. Under this agreement, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Reactive Medical Inc. Before the agreement, BWL Investments Ltd., a British Columbia corporation, owned 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Reactive Medical Inc. In consideration for these shares, we issued 1 shares of our Common Stock to BWL Investments Ltd. Upon completion of the stock transfer agreement, Reactive Medical Inc. became our wholly owned subsidiary. In September 2022, Reactive Medical Inc. changed its name to Elevai Research Inc.
In December 2024, we reincorporated in Nevada through a merger agreement pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of November 22, 2024, by and between Elevai Labs Inc. and PMGC Holdings Inc. Following the reincorporation, our corporate name changed to PMGC Holdings Inc., and our operations and governance are now subject to Nevada corporate laws. This strategic move to Nevada, along with our historical and ongoing corporate actions, reflects our commitment to enhancing operational flexibility and pursuing opportunities for growth.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company and a Smaller Reporting Company
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (i) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our Common Stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act; (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenues of $1.235 billion or more; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under applicable SEC rules. We expect that we will remain an emerging growth company for the foreseeable future, but cannot retain our emerging growth company status indefinitely and will no longer qualify as an emerging growth company on or before the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our Common Stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we are permitted and intend to rely on exemptions from specified disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.
These exemptions include:
● | being permitted to provide only two years of audited financial statements, in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements, with correspondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure; |
● | not being required to comply with the requirement of auditor attestation of our internal controls over financial reporting; |
● | not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements; |
● | reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation; and |
● | not being required to hold a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. |
An emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act to comply with new or revised accounting standards. This allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this extended transition period and, as a result, we will not be required to adopt new or revised accounting standards on the dates on which adoption of such standards is required for other public reporting companies.
We are also a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and have elected to take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosure available for smaller reporting companies. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the end of the fiscal year in which (1) we have a public common equity float of more than $250 million, or (2) we have annual revenues for the most recently completed fiscal year of more than $100 million and a public common equity float or public float of more than $700 million. We also would not be eligible for status as a smaller reporting company if we become an investment company, an asset-backed issuer or a majority-owned subsidiary of a parent company that is not a smaller reporting company.
We have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced disclosure obligations in the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different from what you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

RISK FACTORS
Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, together with the other information set forth in this prospectus, and in the other documents that we include or incorporate by reference into this prospectus as updated by our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other filings we make with the SEC, the risk factors described under the caption “Risk Factors” in any applicable prospectus supplement and any risk factors set forth in our other filings with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, before making a decision about investing in our common stock. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our operations. If any risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. In such an event, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment.
IN ADDITION TO RISKS MENTIONED ABOVE, BUSINESSES ARE OFTEN SUBJECT TO RISKS NOT FORESEEN OR FULLY APPRECIATED BY MANAGEMENT. IN REVIEWING THIS FILING, POTENTIAL INVESTORS SHOULD KEEP IN MIND THAT OTHER POSSIBLE RISKS MAY ADVERSELY IMPACT OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND THE VALUE OF OUR SECURITIES.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements reflect the current view about future events. When used in this prospectus, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forward-looking statements. Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this prospectus relating to our business strategy, our future operating results and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of future performance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, without limitation:
● | Our ability to raise sufficient capital from this offering; |
● | Our ability to effectively operate our business segments; |
● | Our ability to manage our research, development, expansion, growth and operating expenses; |
● | Our ability to evaluate and measure our business, prospects and performance metrics; |
● | Our ability to compete, directly and indirectly, and succeed in a highly competitive and evolving industry; |
● | Our ability to respond and adapt to changes in technology and customer behavior; |
● | Our ability to protect our intellectual property and to develop, maintain and enhance a strong brand; and |
● | other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this prospectus entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations and the securities being offered hereby. |
Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.
Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

USE OF PROCEEDS
All of the securities offered by the Selling Shareholders pursuant to this prospectus will be sold by the Selling Shareholders for their respective accounts. We will not receive any of the proceeds from these sales. However, we will receive proceeds of an aggregate of approximately $2.7 million if the Selling Shareholders exercise all of their Warrants for cash, excluding fees payable to Univest Securities, LLC and other expenses. We intend to use any proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants for working capital and general corporate purposes. We will have broad discretion in the way we use these proceeds. We may use proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants in ways with which you may not agree or in ways which may not yield a significant return.
The Selling Shareholders will pay any underwriting discounts and selling commissions and pay any brokerage fees or commissions and expenses incurred by them for brokerage, accounting, tax or legal services or any other expenses incurred in selling the securities. We will bear the costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the securities covered by this prospectus, including all registration and filing fees, Nasdaq listing fees and fees and expenses of our counsel and our independent registered public accounting firm.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

DIVIDEND POLICY
We have not declared or paid any dividends on our capital stock to date. We anticipate that we will retain all of our future earnings, if any, for use in the operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination related to our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our Board after considering our business prospects, results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements and availability, debt repayment obligations, capital expenditure needs, contractual restrictions, covenants in the agreements governing current and future indebtedness, industry trends, the provisions of Nevada law affecting the payment of dividends and distributions to stockholders and any other factors or considerations the Board deems relevant.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS
This prospectus relates to the offer and sale, from time to time, of up to 559,261 shares of our Common Stock by the stockholders identified in the table below, who we refer to in this prospectus as the “Selling Shareholders” and their respective transferees, pledgees, donees, assignees or other successors (each also a Selling Shareholder for purposes of this prospectus). The Selling Shareholders identified below may currently hold or acquire at any time shares of our Common Stock in addition to those registered hereby.
We are registering these 559,261 shares of our Common Stock for sale by the Selling Shareholders named below pursuant to the Warrant Inducement Agreement and the Warrants, as described below.
The percent of beneficial ownership for the Selling Shareholders is based on 707,076 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of March 31, 2025. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. These rules generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting power or investment power with respect to such securities. Except as otherwise indicated, each Selling Shareholder listed below has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares of our Common Stock beneficially owned by it.
Information concerning the Selling Shareholders may change from time to time and any changed information will be set forth in supplements to this prospectus, if and when necessary. No offer or sale under this prospectus may be made by a stockholder unless that holder is listed in the table below, in any supplement to this prospectus or in an amendment to the related registration statement that has become effective. We will supplement or amend this prospectus if applicable to include additional Selling Shareholders upon provision of all required information to us and subject to the terms of any relevant agreement between us and the Selling Shareholders.
The Selling Shareholders are not obligated to sell any of the shares of our securities offered by this prospectus. Because each Selling Shareholder identified in the table below may sell some or all of the shares of our securities owned by it that are included in this prospectus, and because there are currently no agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale of any of such securities, no estimate can be given as to the number of securities covered by this prospectus that will be held by the Selling Shareholders.
In addition, subject to applicable law, each Selling Shareholder may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, shares of our securities it holds in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date on which the Selling Shareholder provided the information set forth on the table below. Therefore, for purposes of the following table we have assumed that each Selling Shareholder will sell all of the shares of our Common Stock beneficially owned by it that are covered by this prospectus but will not sell any other shares of our Common Stock that it may currently own.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
The following description of our securities is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms and provisions of the capital stock contained in our Articles of Incorporation and our Bylaws.
General
We are authorized to issue two classes of stock. The total number of shares of stock which we are authorized to issue is 785,714,286 shares of capital stock, 285,714,286 of which are Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of which 707,076 shares of which are outstanding as of March 26, 2025, and 500,000,000 shares of which are preferred stock, of which 300,000,000 shares have been designated as Series B Preferred Stock. As of the date of this prospectus, no shares of preferred stock of the Company are issued and outstanding. As of March 31, 2025, there were 43 holders of record of our Common Stock.
Common Stock
The holders of our Common Stock are entitled to the following rights:
Voting Rights. Each share of our Common Stock entitles its holder to one vote per share on all matters to be voted or consented upon by the stockholders.
Dividend Rights. Subject to limitations under Nevada law, holders of our Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends or other distributions, if any, as may be declared by our Board out of funds legally available therefor.
Liquidation Rights. In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our business, the holders of our Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in the assets available for distribution after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities.
Other Matters. The holders of our Common Stock that are not to be issued upon conversion of the convertible promissory notes have no subscription, redemption or conversion privileges; in addition, such Common Stock does not entitle its holders to preemptive rights. All of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock are fully paid and non-assessable.
Other Securities of the Company Not Being Offered in this Offering
The following is a description of securities of the Company other than the Common Stock offered hereby.
Preferred Stock
As of the date of this prospectus, no shares of preferred stock are issued and outstanding. However, our Board has the authority to issue up to 500,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more classes or series and to fix the designations, powers, preferences, and rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any class or series, without further vote or action by the stockholders.
While we do not currently have any plans for the issuance of any shares of preferred stock, the issuance of shares of preferred stock could adversely affect the rights of the holders of Common Stock and, therefore, reduce the value of the Common Stock. It is not possible to state the actual effect of the issuance of any shares of preferred stock on the rights of holders of the Common Stock until the Board determines the specific rights of the holders of the preferred stock; however, these effects may include:
● | Restricting dividends on the Common Stock; |
● | Diluting the voting power of the Common Stock; |
● | Impairing the liquidation rights of the Common Stock; or |
● | Delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company without further action by the stockholders. |
15
Series B Preferred Stock
We have authorized 300,000,000 shares of preferred stock named “Series B Preferred Stock.” The terms of the Series B Preferred Stock are as follows:
Redemption Rights
The Series B Preferred Stock have no redemption rights.
Dividend Rights
Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are not entitled to dividends unless the Board determines in its sole discretion to issue dividends to such holders. With respect to the payment of dividends and distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the Series B Preferred Stock will rank: (i) pari passu with the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock solely to the extent that such parity does not result in the Series B Preferred Stock having priority over the Company’s Common Stock; and (ii) junior to all Indebtedness (as defined below) of the Company now existing or hereafter authorized (including Indebtedness convertible into Common Stock).
“Indebtedness” means (i) all obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary for borrowed money or with respect to deposits or advances of any kind, (ii) all obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries evidenced by bonds, debentures, notes, or similar instruments, (iii) all letters of credit and letters of guaranty in respect of which the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries is an account party, (iv) all securitization or similar facilities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and (iv) all guarantees by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any of the foregoing.
“Person” means any individual, corporation, estate, partnership, joint venture, association, joint-stock company, limited liability company, trust, unincorporated organization, or any other entity.
“Subsidiary” of any Person means any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust, or other entity of which securities or other ownership interests representing more than 50% of the ordinary voting power (or, in the case of a partnership, more than 50% of the general partnership interests) are owned by such Person or one or more Subsidiaries of such Person or by such Person and one or more Subsidiaries of such Person.
Liquidation Rights
Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company (each of such events, “Liquidation”), the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company legally available for distribution to its stockholders, on parity with the holders of shares of Common Stock or any other class or series of capital stock of the Company, and without any preference over any other class or series of capital stock of the Company, an amount equal to the same per share liquidating distribution received by holders of Common Stock. In the event that, upon such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, the available assets of the Company are insufficient to pay the full amount of the liquidating distributions on all outstanding shares of Common Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, or other class of capital stock entitled to distributions upon Liquidation, then such stockholders shall share ratably in any such distribution of assets in proportion to the full liquidating distributions to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled.

Anti-Takeover Provisions of Nevada State Law
Certain anti-takeover provisions of Nevada law could have the effect of delaying or preventing a third party from acquiring us, even if the acquisition arguably could benefit our stockholders.
Nevada’s “combinations with interested stockholders” statutes, Nevada Revised Statues (“NRS”) 78.411 through 78.444, inclusive, prohibit specified types of business “combinations” between certain Nevada corporations and any person deemed to be an “interested stockholder” for two years after such person first becomes an “interested stockholder” unless the corporation’s board of directors approves the combination, or the transaction by which such person becomes an “interested stockholder”, in advance, or unless the combination is approved by the board of directors and sixty percent of the corporation’s voting power not beneficially owned by the interested stockholder, its affiliates and associates. Further, in the absence of prior approval certain restrictions may apply even after such two-year period. However, these statutes do not apply to any combination of a corporation and an interested stockholder after the expiration of four years after the person first became an interested stockholder. For purposes of these statutes, an “interested stockholder” is any person who is (1) the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation, or (2) an affiliate or associate of the corporation and at any time within the two previous years was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of the corporation. The definition of the term “combination” is sufficiently broad to cover most significant transactions between a corporation and an “interested stockholder.” These statutes generally apply to Nevada corporations with 200 or more stockholders of record. However, a Nevada corporation may elect in its articles of incorporation not to be governed by these particular laws, but if such election is not made in the corporation’s original articles of incorporation, the amendment (1) must be approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of stock representing a majority of the outstanding voting power of the corporation not beneficially owned by interested stockholders or their affiliates and associates, and (2) is not effective until 18 months after the vote approving the amendment and does not apply to any combination with a person who first became an interested stockholder on or before the effective date of the amendment. We have made such an election in our original articles of incorporation.
Nevada’s “acquisition of controlling interest” statutes, NRS 78.378 through 78.379, inclusive, contain provisions governing the acquisition of a controlling interest in certain Nevada corporations. These “control share” laws provide generally that any person that acquires a “controlling interest” in certain Nevada corporations may be denied voting rights, unless a majority of the disinterested stockholders of the corporation elects to restore such voting rights. Absent such provision in our bylaws, these laws would apply to us as of a particular date if we were to have 200 or more stockholders of record (at least 100 of whom have addresses in Nevada appearing on our stock ledger at all times during the 90 days immediately preceding that date) and do business in the State of Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation, unless our articles of incorporation or bylaws in effect on the tenth day after the acquisition of a controlling interest provide otherwise. These laws provide that a person acquires a “controlling interest” whenever a person acquires shares of a subject corporation that, but for the application of these provisions of the NRS, would enable that person to exercise (1) one fifth or more, but less than one third, (2) one third or more, but less than a majority or (3) a majority or more, of all of the voting power of the corporation in the election of directors. Once an acquirer crosses one of these thresholds, shares which it acquired in the transaction taking it over the threshold and within the 90 days immediately preceding the date when the acquiring person acquired or offered to acquire a controlling interest become “control shares” to which the voting restrictions described above apply.
Nevada law also provides that directors may resist a change or potential change in control if the directors determine that the change is opposed to, or not in the best interests of, the corporation. The existence of the foregoing provisions and other potential anti-takeover measures could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our Common Stock. They could also deter potential acquirers of our Company, thereby reducing the likelihood that you could receive a premium for your Common Stock in an acquisition.

(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.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to any charter provision, by law 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 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than 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.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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, 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.
