Our Company

About SurgePays, Inc.

SurgePays, Inc. (“SurgePays,” “we,” or the “Company”) is a wireless and point of sale technology company focused on delivering connectivity, software, and financial services to underserved and value conscious consumers through independent retail channels across the United States. The Company’s mission is to improve access to essential digital services by meeting consumers where they live, shop, and enroll.

SurgePays operates a vertically integrated platform that combines wireless services, distribution software, and consumer engagement tools. We operate through three primary business segments: (1) our MVNO wireless brands, (2) our MVNE enablement platform HERO, and (3) our point-of-sale software and fintech services. These businesses are supported through subsidiaries including SurgePhone Wireless, LLC, SurgePays Fintech, Inc., ECS Prepaid, LLC, and Torch Wireless, LLC, among others.

Corporate Vision and Objective

SurgePays aims to be the preferred wireless and services platform for subprime and underserved U.S. consumers while serving as a leading software and distribution partner for independent retailers operating community convenience stores, gas stations, tiendas, and bodegas. By combining proprietary wireless infrastructure, point-of-sale software, and consumer engagement platforms, the Company is positioned to scale efficiently across multiple monetization layers.

Our strategy focuses on improving unit economics by monetizing the point of enrollment and transaction, expanding lifetime value per customer, and leveraging infrastructure we have already built. With a nationwide retail footprint, strategic carrier relationships, and owned software platforms, SurgePays is executing a growth strategy designed to increase subscribers, enable third party wireless brands, and deepen retailer relationships while offsetting customer acquisition costs through adjacent products and services.

S-1

Business Segments

1. MVNO Wireless Services

SurgePays operates as a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) through its two core brands:

● LinkUp Mobile is a prepaid wireless offering designed for value conscious consumers seeking affordable, no contract plans with nationwide coverage, including roaming in the United States, Mexico, and Canada. SurgePays distributes SIM kits and devices through a retail network of more than 9,000 convenience stores and through online channels.

● Torch Wireless is a subsidized Lifeline brand serving government benefits eligible consumers with free wireless service. SurgePays provides federally supported wireless service under the Lifeline program, which reimburses the Company on a per subscriber basis. Some states add additional support, and that combination of federal and state support provides one of the most attractive reimbursement rates nationally.

Subscriber acquisition occurs both in store and online channels and is supported by proprietary enrollment and activation systems designed to streamline onboarding, reduce friction, and improve conversion efficiency.

2. MVNE Platform – HERO

SurgePays launched HERO as a full stack mobile virtual network enabler platform designed to support the launch and management of independent MVNOs. Through a strategic relationship with AT&T, HERO provides direct access to national 4G LTE and 5G networks and delivers a turnkey solution that includes SIM provisioning, billing, CRM, subscriber management, bilingual customer service, logistics, and device procurement.

HERO enables brands to launch wireless offerings without building telecom infrastructure and operates on a scalable per transaction revenue model. With multiple MVNOs launched and additional partners onboarded, the Company believes HERO represents a growing source of high margin recurring revenue and an important extension of its wireless platform strategy.

3. Point-of-Sale Software and Prepaid Services

SurgePays provides prepaid transaction services and point-of-sale software to independent retailers operating community convenience stores, gas stations, tiendas, and bodegas.

Our prepaid services allow store clerks to process wireless prepaid top-ups, bill payments, and debit and gift card activations across major brands. These high frequency transactions generate recurring revenue and support cross selling of the Company’s wireless and digital services.

ClearLine is a patent pending SaaS platform that transforms existing point of sale terminals into interactive consumer engagement and marketing tools. ClearLine enables digital promotions, QR code enrollment, couponing, and analytics and integrates with major terminal providers including Clover, PAX, and Landi.

By integrating software, payments, and consumer engagement at the transaction point, SurgePays creates a repeatable acquisition and monetization loop that benefits retailers and consumers while supporting scalable growth with minimal hardware requirements.

Strategic Developments and Growth Outlook

Recent developments include expanding monetization across existing traffic and enrollment workflows, integrating adjacent financial and digital services into ProgramBenefits.com, and increasing monetization per consumer interaction. The Company continues to focus on improving customer economics by layering complementary products and services at the point of sign up and engagement.

S-2

Growth initiatives include scaling both LinkUp Prepaid and Lifeline activations, expanding prepaid retail distribution, enabling wireless launches for new 3^rd party brands through HERO, and increasing adoption of ClearLine across independent retailers.

Competitive Advantage and Market Position

SurgePays differentiates itself through its ownership of distribution, customer sign-up enrollment, and monetization platforms. The Company maintains direct relationships with thousands of retailers, operates vertically integrated wireless infrastructure, and controls the software and engagement layers that drive transactions.

By owning the transaction and enrollment point, SurgePays captures valuable data, improves margins, and increases customer stickiness while monetizing both end consumers and wholesale partners.

Recent Developments

January 2026 Convertible Notes

On January 12, 2026, the Company entered into Secured Note Purchase Agreements (the “NPAs”) for the issuance of an aggregate of $500,000 of convertible secured promissory notes (the “Notes”), which Notes mature twenty-four months from the date of issuance and bear an interest of 14.5% per annum. The Notes are to be paid in four equal quarterly payments beginning twelve months after issuance, and the interest on the Notes shall be paid quarterly in arrears beginning on April 10, 2026. The Notes, including accrued and unpaid interest, may be converted into shares of Common Stock anytime after issuance, subject to beneficial ownership limitations, at a conversion price between $4 and $12 dependent upon the portion of the Note being converted (and which conversion prices are subject to standard anti-dilution adjustments).

The Notes are secured obligations of the Company, and will rank senior to all other obligations except as otherwise agreed by the Company, the holders of the Notes, and the Company’s other outstanding debt holders. The Notes contain standard representations, warranties, covenants, and events of default, which if such events of default are left uncured, the Note would become immediately due and payable, and increase the interest to the default rate of 18% per annum.

The Company also issued to the holders of the Notes an aggregate of 21,625 of shares (the “Commitment Shares”) in connection with the issuance of the Notes. The shares underlying the Notes and the Commitment Shares were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and until such time as such shares underlying the Notes and the Commitment Shares have been registered under the 1933 Act, will be issued with restrictive legend and may not be freely transferred and sold.

ATM Update

This prospectus supplement also amends and supplements the information in the prospectus, dated November 3, 2023, filed as a part of our registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-273110), as supplemented by our prospectus supplement dated August 5, 2026, or the Prior Prospectus. This prospectus supplement should be read in conjunction with the Prior Prospectus, and is qualified by reference thereto, except to the extent that the information herein amends or supersedes the information contained in the Prior Prospectus. This prospectus supplement is not complete without, and may only be delivered or utilized in connection with, the Prior Prospectus, and any future amendments or supplements thereto.

We filed the Prior Prospectus to register the offer and sale of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, from time to time pursuant to the terms of that certain At The Market Offering Agreement, (the “Sales agreement”), between Titan Partners Group LLC, a division of American Capital Partners, LLC (“Titan”), acting as the agent, and us.

We are filing this prospectus supplement to amend the Prior Prospectus to update the amount of shares we are eligible to sell under General Instruction I.B.6. As a result of these limitations and the current public float of our common stock, and in accordance with the terms of the Sales Agreement, we may offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $1 from time to time through Titan, which does not include the shares of common stock having an aggregate sales price of $$1,775,390.79 that were sold pursuant to the Prior Prospectus to date.

The Company will also file a Current Report on Form 8-K to reflect the decrease in the number of shares that may be issued and sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement.

S-4

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves a significant degree of risk. Before you invest in our common stock, you should carefully consider the risk factors included in, or incorporated by reference into, this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Exchange Act, together with all of the other information included in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents we incorporate by reference, in evaluating an investment in our common stock. Any of these risks and uncertainties could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. If that occurs, the trading price of our common stock could decline materially and you could lose all or part of your investment. The risks described in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. Past financial and operational performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. Please also read carefully the section above entitled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information”.

RISKS RELATED TO THIS OFFERING

We have broad discretion in determining how to use the proceeds from this offering and we cannot assure you that we will be successful in spending the proceeds in ways that increase our profitability or market value, or otherwise yield favorable returns.

We plan to utilize net proceeds of this offering for the expansion of the Company’s Lifeline business, working capital and general corporate purposes. Nevertheless, we will have broad discretion in determining specific expenditures. You will be entrusting your funds to our management, upon whose judgment you must depend, with limited information concerning the purposes to which the funds will ultimately be applied. We may not be successful in spending the proceeds of this offering in ways which increase our profitability or market value, or otherwise yield favorable returns. See “Use of Proceeds” for additional information.

If you purchase shares of our common stock sold in this offering, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of your shares. In addition, we may issue additional shares of common stock in the future which may result in additional dilution to common stockholders.

After giving effect to the sale of shares of our common stock in this offering at a price of $1.25 per share for aggregate gross proceeds to us of approximately $2,325,000, and after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, but giving no effect to the exercise of the over-allotment option or exercise of the Representative’s Warrants, purchasers of our common stock in this offering will incur immediate dilution of $1.66 per share of common stock in the as adjusted net tangible book value of the common stock they acquire. For a more detailed discussion of the foregoing, please see the section entitled “Dilution” below. To the extent outstanding stock options or warrants are exercised, or convertible debt converted to shares, there will be further dilution to new investors.

S-5

Future issuances or sales, or the potential for future issuances or sales, of our common stock may cause the trading price of our securities to decline and could impair our ability to raise capital through subsequent equity offerings.

In order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer and issue additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock. We cannot assure you that we will be able to sell shares or other securities in any offering at a price per share that is equal to or greater than the price per share paid by investors in previous offerings, and investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share in previous offerings. Further, we may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations, even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. In addition, the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants or the settlement of outstanding restricted stock units would result in further dilution of your investment.

Because we do not currently intend to declare cash dividends on our shares of common stock in the foreseeable future, stockholders must rely on appreciation of the value of our common stock for any return on their investment.

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain any future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business. Additionally, our ability to pay dividends is limited by restrictions on our ability to pay dividends and make certain other restricted payments under the terms of our term loan. Accordingly, while payment of dividends rests within the discretion of our board of directors, no cash dividends on our common stock have been declared or paid by us and we have no intention of paying any such dividends in the foreseeable future. Any return to investors is expected to come, if at all, only from potential increases in the price of our common stock.

Sales of a significant number of shares of our common stock in the public markets, or the perception that such sales could occur, could depress the market price of our common stock.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public markets could depress the market price of our common stock and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. We cannot predict the effect that future sales of our common stock would have on the market price of our common stock.

S-6

USE OF PROCEEDS

We estimate that the net proceeds of this offering, after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, will be approximately $2.125 million (or approximately $2.47 if the underwriters exercise in full the over-allotment option to purchase up to additional shares), and assuming no exercise of the Representative’s Warrants. We will have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock offered under this prospectus supplement.

We presently intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of our shares of common stock for expansion of the Company’s Lifeline business, and for working capital and general corporate purposes. In addition, we may pursue selective mergers and acquisitions in the future that we believe are accretive to the business, although no such acquisitions have been identified as of the date of this Prospectus Supplement. We reserve the right, however, to use the net proceeds from this offering for any proper corporate purpose as determined by our board of directors.

Our expected use of net proceeds from this offering represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions. The amounts and timing of our actual use of the net proceeds may vary significantly depending on numerous factors, including the progress of our desired revenue and operational growth, and any unforeseen cash needs. Accordingly, our management will have broad discretion in the timing and application of these proceeds.

Pending our use of the net proceeds from this offering, we intend to invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments, including short-term, investment grade, interest bearing instruments and U.S. government securities.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have not declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock, and we do not anticipate declaring or paying cash dividends for the foreseeable future. We are not subject to any legal restrictions respecting the payment of dividends, except that we may not pay dividends if the payment would render us insolvent. Any future determination as to the payment of cash dividends on our common stock will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements and other factors that the board of directors considers to be relevant.

A purchaser of shares of our common stock in this offering will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share and the as adjusted net book value per share of our common stock upon the closing of this offering. Our historical net tangible book value per share of common stock as of September 30, 2025, was $(11,261,849), or approximately $(0.56) per share of outstanding common stock, based on 20,065,278 shares of common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2025. Net tangible book value per share of our common stock is determined at any date by subtracting total liabilities from the amount of total tangible assets, and dividing this amount by the number of shares of common stock deemed to be outstanding as of that date.

After giving effect to the sale of shares of our common stock at the public offering price of $1.25 per share in this offering, but giving no effect to the possible exercise of the over-allotment option or exercise of the Representative’s Warrants, our as adjusted net tangible book value of our common stock as of September 30, 2025 would have been approximately $(9,136,849), or approximately $(0.41) per share of outstanding common stock. This amount represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.15 per share of our common stock to our existing common stockholders and an immediate dilution of $1.66 per share of our common stock to new investors purchasing common stock in this offering, as illustrated in the following table:

Public offering price per share				$	1.25
Net tangible book value per share of common stock before this offering as of September 30, 2025	$	(0.56	)
Increase in net tangible book value per share of common stock attributable to this offering	$	0.15
As adjusted net tangible book value per share of common stock after giving effect to this offering				$	(0.41	)
Dilution per share of common stock to new investors in this offering				$	1.66

The foregoing table does not take into account further dilution to new investors that could occur upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants, or conversion of outstanding convertible debt, having a per share exercise price less than the share per common stock offering price to the public in this offering.

The foregoing table assumes no exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option or exercise of the Representative’s Warrants and excludes the following as of September 30, 2025:

	●	730,000 shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants with a weighted average exercise price of $5.86 per share;
	●	1,153,057 shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options with a weighted average exercise price of $2.37 per share;
	●	1,895,658 shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding convertible notes with a weighted average conversion price of $4.10 per share; and
	●	9,042,905 shares reserved for future issuance under our equity incentive plans.

UNDERWRITING

In connection with this offering, we will enter into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with R.F. Lafferty & Co., Inc. (the “Representative”) as the sole book running manager. The underwriters named below has agreed to purchase from us, on a firm commitment basis, the number of shares of common stock set forth opposite its name below, at the public offering price, less the underwriting discount set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement.

Underwriters	Number of Shares of Common Stock
R.F. Lafferty & Co., Inc		2,000,000

Total

The Underwriting Agreement will provide that the underwriters are obligated to purchase all of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus supplement, other than those covered by the over-allotment option, if any shares of common stock are purchased. The underwriters are offering the shares when, as and if issued to and accepted by it, subject to a number of conditions. These conditions include, among other things, the requirements that no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement be in effect and that no proceedings for this purpose have been initiated or threatened by the SEC. Furthermore, pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the underwriters’ obligations are subject to customary conditions, representations and warranties contained in the Underwriting Agreement, such as receipt by the underwriters of officers’ certificates and legal opinions.

An associated person of the Representative has purchased 80,000 shares of common stock in this offering for a total purchase price of $100,000.

Over-Allotment Option

We have granted a 45-day option to the underwriters, exercisable one or more times in whole or in part, to purchase up to an additional 300,000 shares of our common stock on the same terms as the other shares being purchased by the underwriters from us, less underwriting discounts and commissions to cover over-allotments, if any. The underwriters may exercise the option solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, in connection with this offering. Any shares issued or sold under the option will be issued and sold on the same terms and conditions as the other shares that are the subject of this offering.

Discounts and Commissions

Except as disclosed in this prospectus supplement, the underwriters have not received and will not receive from us any other item of compensation or expense in connection with this offering considered by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”), to be underwriting compensation under its rule of fair price.

The underwriting commission and discount is equal to the public offering price per share, less the amount paid by the underwriters to us per share. The underwriting discount was determined through an arms length negotiation between us and the underwriters.

S-12

The following table summarizes the underwriting discounts and commissions and proceeds, before expenses, to us assuming both no exercise and full exercise by the underwriters of the over-allotment option:

	Per Share		Total Without Over-Allotment Option		Total With Over-Allotment Option
Public offering price	$	1.25	$	2,500,000	$	2,875,000
Underwriting discount (7.0%)	$	0.0875	$	175,000	$	201,250
Proceeds to us, before fees and expenses	$	1.1625	$	2,325,000	$	2,673,750

We have agreed to pay or reimburse the Representative for certain of its out-of-pocket expenses relating to the offering, including up to $100,000 for the fees and expenses of the Representative’s outside legal counsel, the Representative’s actual accountable “road show” expenses for the offering, the costs associated with receiving commemorative mementos and lucite tombstones, the costs of the Representative’s use of book-building, prospectus tracking and compliance software, and fees, expenses and disbursements relating to background checks of our officers and directors, inclusive of any advance previously paid to the Representative. We estimate that our total expenses of the offering, excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $375,000.

Representative’s Warrants

We have also agreed to issue the Representative’s Warrants to the Representative of the underwriters to purchase a number of common stock equal to 3.0% of the total number of common stock sold by the Company in this offering. The Representative’s Warrants shall have an exercise price equal to 110% of the public offering price of the common stock sold in this offering. The Representative’s Warrants may be purchased in cash or via cashless exercise, will be exercisable commencing six (6) months after the closing date of the offering and will terminate five (5) years after the commencement of sales in this offering. The Representative’s Warrants also provides for customary anti-dilution provisions. The Representative’s Warrants and the underlying shares will be deemed compensation by FINRA and therefore will be subject to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1). In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1), and except as otherwise permitted by FINRA rules, neither the Representative’s Warrants nor any of our shares issued upon exercise of the Representative’s Warrants may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of such securities by any person, for a period of 180 days beginning on the date of commencement of sales of the offering.

Right of First Refusal and Tail

We shall grant the Representative a right of first refusal to act as sole managing underwriter and dealer manager, book runner or sole placement agent for any and all future public or private equity, equity-linked or debt (excluding commercial bank debt) for our Company for 3 months from the closing of this offering, subject to certain exceptions.

We have also agreed to pay the Representative, subject to certain exceptions, a cash fee equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds received by the Company, and warrants to purchase a number of shares of our common stock equal to 3.0% of the aggregate number of shares of our common stock sold in such offering at an exercise price equal to 110% of the offering price of the shares of our common stock sold in such offering, from any financing with any investor whom we have had a conference call or a meeting arranged by the representative during the period in which we engaged the representative, within the six (6) month period following the closing of this offering.

The right to receive a fee shall be subject to FINRA Rule 5110(g), and the Company shall have a right of termination for cause, which includes that the Company may terminate the representative’s engagement upon the representative’s material failure to provide the underwriting services required by the underwriting agreement. The Company’s exercise of the right of termination for cause will eliminate any obligations with respect to the payment of any termination fee or provision of any tail financing fee set forth above.

S-13

Lock-up Agreements

We have agreed with the underwriters that we will not, subject to certain exceptions, without the prior consent of the Representative; (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of our capital stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of our capital stock; (ii) file or caused to be filed any registration statement with the SEC relating to the offering of any shares of our capital stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of our capital stock; (iii) complete any offering of debt securities, other than entering into a line of credit with a traditional bank or (iv) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of our capital stock for a period of 180 days after the date of closing of this offering.

Additionally, our executive officers, directors, and 5% and greater shareholders have agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to offer, sell, dispose of or hedge any shares of our common stock or common stock equivalents, for a period of 180 days after the date of closing of this offering.

Indemnification

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and liabilities arising from breaches of representations and warranties contained in the underwriting agreement, or to contribute to payments that the underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

Stabilization

In connection with this offering, the underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our common stock. Specifically, the underwriters may over-allot in connection with this offering by selling more shares than they are obligated to purchase under the Underwriting Agreement, creating a short position in our common stock. The short position may be either a covered short position or a naked short position. In a covered short position, the number of shares over-allotted by the underwriters are not greater than the number of shares that it may purchase in the over-allotment option. In a naked short position, the number of shares involved is greater than the number of shares in the over-allotment option. To close out a short position or to stabilize the price per share the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, shares in the open market. The underwriters may also elect to reduce any short position by exercising all or part of the over-allotment option. In determining the source of shares to close out the short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of our common stock available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through the over-allotment option. If the underwriters sell more than could be covered by the over-allotment option, or a naked short position, the position can only be closed out by buying shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there could be downward pressure on the price of our common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering.

Finally, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, shares in market making transactions, including “passive” market making transactions as described below.

The foregoing transactions may stabilize or maintain the market price of our common stock at a price that is higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the absence of these activities. The underwriters are not required to engage in these activities, and may discontinue any of these activities at any time without notice. These transactions may be effected on Nasdaq or otherwise.

In connection with this offering, the underwriters and selling group members, if any, or their affiliates may engage in passive market making transactions in our common stock on Nasdaq immediately prior to the commencement of sales in this offering, in accordance with Rule 103 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act. Rule 103 generally provides that:

	●	a passive market maker may not effect transactions or display bids for our shares and or warrants in excess of the highest independent bid price by persons who are not passive market makers; net purchases by a passive market maker on each day are generally limited to 30% of the passive market maker’s average daily trading volume in our shares during a specified two-month prior period or 200 shares, whichever is greater, and must be discontinued when that limit is reached; and
	●	passive market making bids must be identified as such.

S-14

Passive market making may stabilize or maintain the market price of our common stock at a level above that which might otherwise prevail and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.

The underwriters do not expect sales to discretionary accounts to exceed 5% of the total number of common stock offered.

Electronic Distribution

Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on the underwriters’ website and any information contained in any other website maintained by the underwriters are not part of this prospectus supplement or the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement forms a part, has not been approved and/or endorsed by us or the underwriters in their capacity as an underwriter, and should not be relied upon by investors.

Other Relationships

Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments. Associated persons of the sole book running manager may participate in this offering at the public offering price.

SurgePays Fintech (ECS Business)

We refer to the collective operations of ECS Prepaid, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company, Electronic Check Services, Inc., a Missouri corporation, and Central States Legal Services, Inc., a Missouri corporation, as “Surge Fintech.” This was previously referred to as the “ECS Business.”

Surge Fintech has been a financial technology tech and wireless top-up platform for over 15 years. Through a series of transactions between October 2019 and January 2020, we acquired the ECS Business primarily for the favorable ACH banking relationship and a fintech transactions platform processing over 20,000 transactions a day at approximately 8,000 independently owned convenience stores. The platform serves as the proven backbone for wireless top-up transactions and wireless product aggregation for the SurgePays nationwide network.

Surge Blockchain

Surge Blockchain Software is a back-office marketplace (accessed through the SurgePays fintech portal for convenience stores) offering wholesale consumable goods direct to convenience stores who are transacting on the SurgePays Fintech platform. The wholesale e-commerce platform is easily accessed through the secure app interface – similar to a website. We believe what makes this sales platform unique is that it also offers the merchant the ability to order wholesale consumable goods at a significant discount from traditional distributors with one touch ease. We are able to sell products at a significant discount by using on demand Direct Store Delivery (DSD). Our platform is connected directly to manufactures, who ship products direct to the store while cutting out the middleman. The goal of the SurgePays Portal is to leverage the competitive advantage and efficiencies of e-commerce to provide as many commonly sold consumable products as possible to convenience stores, corner markets, bodegas, and supermarkets while increasing profit margins for these stores.

ShockWave CRM™

SurgePays acquired the Software as a Service (SaaS) Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Billing System software platform “MVNO Cloud Services” on June 7, 2022. S Payment for the software consisted of $300,000 in cash, of which $100,000 was paid in June 2022, and the remaining $200,000 in July 2022. Additionally, the Company issued 85,000 shares of Common Stock having a fair value of $411,400 ($4.84/share), based upon the quoted closing trading price. SurgePays has rebranded the software as ShockWave CRM.

ShockWave is an end-to-end cloud-based SaaS offering an Omnichannel CRM, billing system and carrier integrations specific to the telecommunication and broadband industry. Some of these services include sales agent management, device and SIM inventory management, order processing and provisioning, retail Point of Service (POS) activations and payments, customer service management, retention tools, billing, and payments.

Centercom

Since 2019, we have owned a 40% equity interest in Centercom Global, S.A. de C.V. (“Centercom”). Centercom is a bilingual operations center providing the Company with sales support, customer service, IT infrastructure design, graphic media, database programming, software development, revenue assurance, lead generation, and other various operational back-office services. Centercom is based in El Salvador.

Competition

There are many competitors in the prepaid wireless and mobile broadband industry. We feel what makes SurgePhone different is we are a grassroots company with our products placed in convenience stores where the underbanked shop. We can offer prepaid wireless and financial services, through these stores, at a lower price to customers since we own the transaction software processing the activations and top-ups.

Many of our current and potential competitors are well established and have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial and operational resources, and name recognition than we have. Most traditional convenience store distributors are companies that have been in business for over 50 years and utilize the historical “manufacturing plant to truck to warehouse to truck to store” logistics model. However, we believe that with our diverse product line, better efficiencies resulting in lower wholesale cost of goods sold, we have the ability to obtain a large market share and continue to generate sales growth and compete in the industry. We believe, in some cases, we will be able to partner with our competition through integration and compensate them for helping us grow due to the uniqueness of the suite of products we offer and the additional revenue stores can unlock. The principal competitive factors in all our product markets are technical features, quality, availability, price, customer support, and distribution coverage. The relative importance of each of these factors varies depending on the region. We believe using our direct store distribution model nationwide will open significant opportunities for growth.

The markets in which we operate can be generally categorized as highly competitive. In order to maximize our competitive advantages, we continue to expand our product portfolio to capitalize on market trends, changes in technology and new product releases. Based on available data for our served markets, we estimate that our market share of the convenience store sales business at this time is less than 1%. A substantial acquisition would be necessary to meaningfully and rapidly change our market share percentage.

Distributors generally do not have a broad set of product and service offerings or capabilities, and no single distributor currently provides all the top selling consumables while offering products and services to enhance the lifestyle of the underbanked such as prepaid wireless, gift cards, bill payment and reloadable debit cards. We believe this creates a significant opportunity for a dynamic paradigm shift to a nationwide wholesale e-commerce platform.

Recent Developments

This transfer will be completed by Upstream prior to October 18, 2023. Accordingly, the listing of the Company’s common stock on Upstream has been terminated as of October 18, 2023.

Corporate Information

We were previously known as North American Energy Resources, Inc. and KSIX Media Holdings, Inc. Prior to April 27, 2015, we operated solely as an independent oil and natural gas company engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties and the production of oil and natural gas through its wholly owned subsidiary, NAER. On April 27, 2015, NAER entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with KSIX Media whereby KSIX Media became a wholly-owned subsidiary of NAER and which resulted in the shareholders of KSIX Media owning approximately 90% of the voting stock of the surviving entity. While we continued the oil and gas operations of NAER following this transaction, on August 4, 2015, we changed its name to KSIX Media Holdings, Inc. On December 21, 2017, we changed its name to Surge Holdings, Inc. to better reflect the diversity of its business operations. We changed its name to SurgePays, Inc. on October 29, 2020.

Historically, we operated through these direct and indirect subsidiaries: (i) KSIX Media, Inc., incorporated in Nevada on November 5, 2014; (ii) KSIX, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company that was formed on September 14, 2011; (iii) Surge Blockchain, LLC, formerly Blvd. Media Group, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company that was formed on January 29, 2009; (iv) DigitizeIQ, LLC an Illinois limited liability company that was formed on July 23, 2014; (v) Surge Cryptocurrency Mining, Inc., formerly North American Exploration, Inc., a Nevada corporation that was incorporated on August 18, 2006 (this has been a dormant entity that does not own any assets since January 1, 2019); (vi) LogicsIQ, Inc., a Nevada corporation that was formed on October 2, 2018; (vii) True Wireless, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation (formerly True Wireless, LLC); (viii) Surge Payments, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company; (ix) Surgephone Wireless, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company; and (x) SurgePays Fintech, Inc., a Nevada limited liability company. On January 22, 2021, the issued and outstanding equity securities of DigitizeIQ, LLC and KSIX, LLC were transferred to LogicsIQ and became wholly-owned subsidiaries of LogicsIQ.

On May 7, 2021, the Company disposed of its subsidiary True Wireless, Inc., however we retained $1,097,659 in liabilities which consisted of $1,077,659 in accounts payable and accrued expenses as well as $20,000 in related party loans. The balance at December 31, 2022 was $668,649. In connection with the sale, the Company received an unsecured note receivable for $176,851, bearing interest at 0.6%, with a default interest rate of 10%. Starting in June 2023, the Company was scheduled to receive what will ultimately be 25 payments of principal and accrued interest of $7,461 per month. However, as of August 30, 2023, the Company has not received any payments.

On January 30, 2020, the Company acquired ECS Prepaid, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company, Electronic Check Services, Inc., a Missouri corporation, and Central States Legal Services, Inc., a Missouri corporation.

On January 1, 2022, the Company acquired 100% of Torch Wireless, LLC resulting in Torch becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary, in a transaction accounted for as a business combination. The Company paid $800,000 and agreed to pay the Sellers monthly residual payments for customers enrolled by the Company through December 31, 2022 of either $2 or $3 per customer. This amount totaled $1,679,723.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following description of our capital stock is not complete and may not contain all the information you should consider before investing in our capital stock.

See “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation by Reference.”

Description of Common Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 600,000,000 shares of capital stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 500,000,000 are shares of Common Stock and 100,000,000 are shares of “blank check” preferred stock.

Each share of our Common Stock entitles its holder to one vote in the election of each director and on all other matters voted on generally by our stockholders, other than any matter that (1) solely relates to the terms of any outstanding series of preferred stock or the number of shares of that series and (2) does not affect the number of authorized shares of preferred stock or the powers, privileges and rights pertaining to the Common Stock. No share of our Common Stock affords any cumulative voting rights. This means that the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares voting for the election of directors can elect all directors to be elected if they choose to do so.

Holders of our Common Stock will be entitled to dividends in such amounts and at such times as our Board of Directors in its discretion may declare out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. We currently intend to retain our entire available discretionary cash flow to finance the growth, development and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on the Common Stock in the foreseeable future. Any future dividends will be paid at the discretion of our Board of Directors.

If we liquidate or dissolve our business, the holders of our Common Stock will share ratably in all our assets that are available for distribution to our stockholders after our creditors are paid in full and the holders of all series of our outstanding preferred stock, if any, receive their liquidation preferences in full.

Our Common Stock has no preemptive rights and is not convertible or redeemable or entitled to the benefits of any sinking or repurchase fund.

The Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the trading symbol “SURG.”

Description of Tradeable Warrants

Overview. The following summary of certain terms and provisions of the Tradeable Warrants is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the warrant agency agreement between us and VStock Transfer, LLC (the “Warrant Agent”), and the form of warrant, incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.3 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

As of October 23, 2023, there were 5,616,892 warrants issued and outstanding, consisting of 5,246,086 Tradeable Warrants and 370,806 other warrants.

The Tradeable Warrants entitle the registered holder to purchase Common Stock at a price equal to $4.73 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, immediately following the issuance of such Tradeable Warrant and terminating at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 4, 2024. The other warrants entitle the registered holder to purchase Common Stock at prices between $4.73 and $75.00 per share and have expiration dates between November 2023 and November 2025.

The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Tradeable Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including in the event of a stock dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the Tradeable Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of Common Stock at prices below its exercise price.

Exercisability. The Tradeable Warrants are exercisable at any time after their original issuance and at any time up to the date that is three (3) years after their original issuance. The Tradeable Warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the Warrant Agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price, by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of Tradeable Warrants being exercised. Under the terms of the warrant agency agreement, we must use our best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement and current prospectus relating to the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Tradeable Warrants until the expiration of the Tradeable Warrants. If we fail to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement and current prospectus relating to the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Tradeable Warrants, the holders of the Tradeable Warrants shall have the right to exercise the Tradeable Warrants solely via a cashless exercise feature provided for in the Tradeable Warrants, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and current prospectus.

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

Exercise Price. The exercise price per whole share of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of the Tradeable Warrants is $4.73. The exercise price is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting our Common Stock and also upon any distributions of assets, including cash, stock or other property to our stockholders.

Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon exercise of the Tradeable Warrants. As to any fraction of a share of Common Stock which the holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company will round up or down, as applicable, to the nearest whole share of Common Stock.

Transferability. Subject to applicable laws, the Tradeable Warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without our consent.

Warrant Agent; Global Certificate. The Tradeable Warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agency agreement between the Warrant Agent and us. The Tradeable Warrants shall initially be represented only by one or more global warrants deposited with the Warrant Agent, as custodian on behalf of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) and registered in the name of Cede & Co., a nominee of DTC, or as otherwise directed by DTC.

Fundamental Transactions. In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the Tradeable Warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our Common Stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding Common Stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding Common Stock, the holders of the Tradeable Warrants will be entitled to receive the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the Tradeable Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction.

Rights as a Stockholder. The Tradeable Warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of Common Stock or any voting rights until they exercise their Tradeable Warrants and receive Common Stock. After the issuance Common Stock upon exercise of the Tradeable Warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.

Governing Law. The Tradeable Warrants and the warrant agency agreement are governed by New York law.

Exchange. The Tradeable Warrants are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the trading symbol “SURGW.”

Anti-takeover Effects of Our Articles of Incorporation and By-laws

The holders of our Common Stock do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of our directors, which makes it more difficult for minority stockholders to be represented on the Board. Our articles of incorporation allow our Board to issue additional shares of our Common Stock and new series of preferred stock without further approval of our stockholders. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger, or otherwise.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

Business Combinations

The “business combination” provisions of Sections 78.411 to 78.444, inclusive, of the Nevada Revised Statutes, or NRS, generally prohibit a Nevada corporation with at least 200 stockholders of record, a “resident domestic corporation,” from engaging in various “combination” transactions with any “interested stockholder” unless certain conditions are met or the corporation has elected in its articles of incorporation to not be subject to these provisions. We have not elected to opt out of these provisions and if we meet the definition of resident domestic corporation, now or in the future, our company will be subject to these provisions.

A “combination” is generally defined to include (a) a merger or consolidation of the resident domestic corporation or any subsidiary of the resident domestic corporation with the interested stockholder or affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder; (b) any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer, or other disposition, in one transaction or a series of transactions, by the resident domestic corporation or any subsidiary of the resident domestic corporation to or with the interested stockholder or affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder having: (i) an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of the assets of the resident domestic corporation, (ii) an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of all outstanding shares of the resident domestic corporation, or (iii) 10% or more of the earning power or net income of the resident domestic corporation; (c) the issuance or transfer in one transaction or series of transactions of shares of the resident domestic corporation or any subsidiary of the resident domestic corporation having an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the resident domestic corporation to the interested stockholder or affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder; and (d) certain other transactions with an interested stockholder or affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder.

An “interested stockholder” is generally defined as a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns (or within two years, did own) 10% or more of a corporation’s voting stock. An “affiliate” of the interested stockholder is any person that directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries is controlled by or is under common control with the interested stockholder. An “associate” of an interested stockholder is any (a) corporation or organization of which the interested stockholder is an officer or partner or is directly or indirectly the beneficial owner of 10% or more of any class of voting shares of such corporation or organization; (b) trust or other estate in which the interested stockholder has a substantial beneficial interest or as to which the interested stockholder serves as trustee or in a similar fiduciary capacity; or (c) relative or spouse of the interested stockholder, or any relative of the spouse of the interested stockholder, who has the same home as the interested stockholder.

If applicable, the prohibition is for a period of two years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless such transaction is approved by the board of directors prior to the date the interested stockholder obtained such status; or the combination is approved by the board of directors and thereafter is approved at a meeting of the stockholders by the affirmative vote of stockholders representing at least 60% of the outstanding voting power held by disinterested stockholders; and extends beyond the expiration of the two-year period, unless (a) the combination was approved by the board of directors prior to the person becoming an interested stockholder; (b) the transaction by which the person first became an interested stockholder was approved by the board of directors before the person became an interested stockholder; (c) the transaction is approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power held by disinterested stockholders at a meeting called for that purpose no earlier than two years after the date the person first became an interested stockholder; or (d) if the consideration to be paid to all stockholders other than the interested stockholder is, generally, at least equal to the highest of: (i) the highest price per share paid by the interested stockholder within the three years immediately preceding the date of the announcement of the combination or in the transaction in which it became an interested stockholder, whichever is higher, plus compounded interest and less dividends paid, (ii) the market value per share of common shares on the date of announcement of the combination and the date the interested stockholder acquired the shares, whichever is higher, plus compounded interest and less dividends paid, or (iii) for holders of preferred stock, the highest liquidation value of the preferred stock, plus accrued dividends, if not included in the liquidation value. With respect to (i) and (ii) above, the interest is compounded at the rate for one-year United States Treasury obligations from time to time in effect.

Applicability of the Nevada business combination statute would discourage parties interested in taking control of our company if they cannot obtain the approval of our Board. These provisions could prohibit or delay a merger or other takeover or change in control attempt and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire our company even though such a transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their stock at a price above the prevailing market price.

Control Share Acquisitions

The “control share” provisions of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793, inclusive, of the NRS, apply to “issuing corporations” that are Nevada corporations with at least 200 stockholders of record, including at least 100 stockholders of record who are Nevada residents, and that conduct business directly or indirectly in Nevada, unless the corporation has elected to not be subject to these provisions.

The control share statute prohibits an acquirer of shares of an issuing corporation, under certain circumstances, from voting its shares of a corporation’s stock after crossing certain ownership threshold percentages, unless the acquirer obtains approval of the target corporation’s disinterested stockholders. The statute specifies three thresholds: (a) one-fifth or more but less than one-third, (b) one-third but less than a majority, and (c) a majority or more, of the outstanding voting power. Generally, once a person acquires shares in excess of any of the thresholds, those shares and any additional shares acquired within 90 days thereof become “control shares” and such control shares are deprived of the right to vote until disinterested stockholders restore the right. These provisions also provide that if control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person has acquired a majority or more of all voting power, all other stockholders who do not vote in favor of authorizing voting rights to the control shares are entitled to demand payment for the fair value of their shares in accordance with statutory procedures established for dissenters’ rights.

A corporation may elect to not be governed by, or “opt out” of, the control shares provisions by making an election in its articles of incorporation or bylaws, provided that the opt-out election must be in place on the 10th day following the date an acquiring person has acquired a controlling interest, that is, crossing any of the three thresholds described above. We have not opted out of these provisions and will be subject to the control share provisions of the NRS if we meet the definition of an issuing corporation upon an acquiring person acquiring a controlling interest unless we later opt out of these provisions and the opt out is in effect on the 10th day following such occurrence.

The effect of the Nevada control share statute is that the acquiring person, and those acting in association with the acquiring person, will obtain only such voting rights in the control shares as are conferred by a resolution of the stockholders at an annual or special meeting. The Nevada control share law, if applicable, could have the effect of discouraging takeovers of our company.

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED STOCK

Our Articles of Incorporation empowers our board of directors, without action by our shareholders, to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock from time to time in one or more series, which preferred stock may be offered by this prospectus and supplements thereto. As of October 23, 2023, there were no shares of preferred stock designated, issued or outstanding.

We will fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the preferred stock of each series in the certificate of designation relating to that series. We will file as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or will incorporate by reference from a current report on Form 8-K that we file with the SEC, the form of any certificate of designation that describes the terms of the series of preferred stock we are offering before the issuance of the related series of preferred stock. This description will include any or all of the following, as required:

	●	the title and stated value;

	●	the number of shares we are offering;

	●	the liquidation preference per share;

	●	the purchase price;

	●	the dividend rate, period and payment date and method of calculation for dividends;

	●	whether dividends will be cumulative or non-cumulative and, if cumulative, the date from which dividends will accumulate;

	●	any contractual limitations on our ability to declare, set aside or pay any dividends;

	●	the procedures for any auction and remarketing, if any;

	●	the provisions for a sinking fund, if any;

	●	the provisions for redemption or repurchase, if applicable, and any restrictions on our ability to exercise those redemption and repurchase rights;

	●	any listing of the preferred stock on any securities exchange or market;

	●	whether the preferred stock will be convertible into our common stock, and, if applicable, the conversion price, or how it will be calculated, and the conversion period;

	●	whether the preferred stock will be exchangeable into debt securities, and, if applicable, the exchange price, or how it will be calculated, and the exchange period;

	●	voting rights, if any, of the preferred stock;

	●	preemptive rights, if any;

	●	restrictions on transfer, sale or other assignment, if any;

	●	whether interests in the preferred stock will be represented by depositary shares;

	●	a discussion of any material or special United States federal income tax considerations applicable to the preferred stock;

	●	the relative ranking and preferences of the preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs;

	●	any limitations on issuance of any class or series of preferred stock ranking senior to or on a parity with the series of preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs; and

	●	any other specific terms, preferences, rights or limitations of, or restrictions on, the preferred stock.

If we issue shares of preferred stock under this prospectus, after receipt of payment therefor, the shares will be fully paid and non-assessable.

The Nevada Revised Statues provide that the holders of preferred stock will have the right to vote separately as a class on any proposal involving fundamental changes in the rights of holders of that preferred stock. This right is in addition to any voting rights provided for in the applicable certificate of designation.

Our board of directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock. Preferred stock could be issued quickly with terms designed to delay or prevent a change in control of our Company or make removal of management more difficult. Additionally, the issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of decreasing the market price of our common stock.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

General

The debt securities that we may offer by this prospectus consist of notes, debentures, or other evidences of indebtedness. The debt securities may constitute either senior or subordinated debt securities, and in either case may be either secured or unsecured. Any debt securities that we offer and sell will be our direct obligations. Debt securities may be issued in one or more series. All debt securities of any one series need not be issued at the same time, and unless otherwise provided, a series of debt securities may be reopened, with the required consent of the holders of outstanding debt securities, for issuance of additional debt securities of that series or to establish additional terms of that series of debt securities (with such additional terms applicable only to unissued or additional debt securities of that series). The form of indenture has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and is subject to any amendments or supplements that we may enter into with the trustee(s), however, we may issue debt securities not subject to the indenture provided such terms of debt securities are not otherwise required to be set forth in the indenture. The material terms of the indenture are summarized below and we refer you to the indenture for a detailed description of these material terms. Additional or different provisions that are applicable to a particular series of debt securities will, if material, be described in a prospectus supplement relating to the offering of debt securities of that series. These provisions may include, among other things and to the extent applicable, the following:

●	if other than United States Dollars, the currency or currencies in which payments of principal, interest and other amounts payable with respect to the debt securities will be denominated, payable, redeemable or repurchasable, as the case may be;

●	whether, under what circumstances and the currency in which, we will pay additional amounts on the debt securities to any holder of the debt securities who is not a United States person in respect of any tax, assessment or governmental charge and, if so, whether we will have the option to redeem such debt securities rather than pay such additional amounts, and the terms of any such option;

●	whether the debt securities will be secured by any collateral and, if so, a general description of the collateral and the terms of any related security, pledge or other agreements;

●	the persons to whom any interest on the debt securities will be payable, if other than the registered holders thereof on the regular record date therefor; and

●	any other material terms or conditions upon which the debt securities will be issued.

Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will issue debt securities in fully registered form without coupons and in denominations of $1,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000, and interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If any interest payment date or the maturity date falls on a day that is not a business day, then the payment will be made on the next business day without additional interest and with the same effect as if it were made on the originally scheduled date. “Business day” means any calendar day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday in New York, New York, and on which the trustee and commercial banks are open for business in New York, New York.

Unless we inform you otherwise in a prospectus supplement, each series of our senior debt securities will rank equally in right of payment with all of our other unsubordinated debt. The subordinated debt securities will rank junior in right of payment and be subordinate to all of our unsubordinated debt.

Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, the trustee will act as paying agent and registrar for the debt securities under the indenture. We may act as paying agent under the indenture.

The prospectus supplement will contain a description of United States federal income tax consequences relating to the debt securities, to the extent applicable.

Covenants

The applicable prospectus supplement will describe any covenants, such as restrictive covenants restricting us or our subsidiaries, if any, from incurring, issuing, assuming or guarantying any indebtedness or restricting us or our subsidiaries, if any, from paying dividends or acquiring any of our or its capital stock.

Consolidation, Merger and Transfer of Assets

The indenture permits a consolidation or merger between us and another entity and/or the sale, conveyance or lease by us of all or substantially all of our property and assets, provided that:

●	the resulting or acquiring entity, if other than us, is organized and existing under the laws of a United States jurisdiction and assumes all of our responsibilities and liabilities under the indenture, including the payment of all amounts due on the debt securities and performance of the covenants in the indenture;

●	immediately after the transaction, and giving effect to the transaction, no event of default under the indenture exists; and

●	we have delivered to the trustee an officers’ certificate stating that the transaction and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with the transaction, the supplemental indenture comply with the indenture and that all conditions precedent to the transaction contained in the indenture have been satisfied.

If we consolidate or merge with or into any other entity, or sell or lease all or substantially all of our assets in compliance with the terms and conditions of the indenture, the resulting or acquiring entity will be substituted for us in the indenture and the debt securities with the same effect as if it had been an original party to the indenture and the debt securities. As a result, such successor entity may exercise our rights and powers under the indenture and the debt securities, in our name and, except in the case of a lease, we will be released from all our liabilities and obligations under the indenture and under the debt securities.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may transfer all of our property and assets to another entity if, immediately after giving effect to the transfer, such entity is our wholly owned subsidiary. The term “wholly owned subsidiary” means any subsidiary in which we and/or our other wholly owned subsidiaries, if any, own all of the outstanding capital stock.

Modification and Waiver

Under the indenture, some of our rights and obligations and some of the rights of the holders of the debt securities may be modified or amended with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities affected by the modification or amendment. However, the following modifications and amendments will not be effective against any holder without its consent:

●	a change in the stated maturity date of any payment of principal or interest;

●	a reduction in the principal amount of or interest on any debt securities;

●	an alteration or impairment of any right to convert at the rate or upon the terms provided in the indenture;

●	a change in the currency in which any payment on the debt securities is payable;

●	an impairment of a holder’s right to sue us for the enforcement of payments due on the debt securities; or

●	a reduction in the percentage of outstanding debt securities required to consent to a modification or amendment of the indenture or required to consent to a waiver of compliance with certain provisions of the indenture or certain defaults under the indenture.

Under the indenture, the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities may, on behalf of all holders of the debt securities:

●	waive compliance by us with certain restrictive provisions of the indenture; and

●	waive any past default under the indenture in accordance with the applicable provisions of the indenture, except a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any series of debt securities.

Events of Default

Unless we indicate otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, “event of default” under the indenture will mean, with respect to any series of debt securities, any of the following:

●	failure to pay interest on any debt security for 30 days after the payment is due;

●	failure to pay the principal of any debt security when due, either at maturity, upon redemption, by declaration or otherwise;

●	failure on our part to observe or perform any other covenant or agreement in the indenture that applies to the debt securities for 90 days after we have received written notice of the failure to perform in the manner specified in the indenture; and

●	certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization.

Remedies Upon an Event of Default

If an event of default occurs and continues, the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series may declare the entire principal of all the debt securities to be due and payable immediately, except that, if the event of default is caused by certain events in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, the entire principal of all of the debt securities of such series will become due and payable immediately without any act on the part of the trustee or holders of the debt securities. If such a declaration occurs, the holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series can, subject to conditions, rescind the declaration.

The indenture requires us to furnish to the trustee not less often than annually, a certificate from our principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer, as the case may be, as to such officer’s knowledge of our compliance with all conditions and covenants under the indenture. The trustee may withhold notice to the holders of debt securities of any default, except defaults in the payment of principal of or interest on any debt securities if the trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of notice is in the best interests of the holders. For purposes of this paragraph, “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an event of default under the indenture.

The trustee is not obligated to exercise any of its rights or powers under the indenture at the request, order or direction of any holders of debt securities, unless the holders offer the trustee satisfactory security or indemnity. If satisfactory security or indemnity is provided, then, subject to other rights of the trustee, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities may direct the time, method and place of:

●	conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee; or

●	exercising any trust or power conferred upon the trustee.

The holder of a debt security will have the right to begin any proceeding with respect to the indenture or for any remedy only if:

●	the holder has previously given the trustee written notice of a continuing event of default;

●	the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities have made a written request of, and offered reasonable indemnity to, the trustee to begin such proceeding;

●	the trustee has not started such proceeding within 60 days after receiving the request; and

●	no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the trustee under the indenture.

However, the holder of any debt security will have an absolute right to receive payment of principal of and interest on the debt security when due and to institute suit to enforce this payment.

Satisfaction and Discharge; Defeasance

Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, if at any time:

●	we have paid the principal of and interest on all the debt securities of any series, except for debt securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid in accordance with the indenture, as and when the same shall have become due and payable; or

●	we have delivered to the trustee for cancellation all debt securities of any series theretofore authenticated, except for debt securities of such series which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in the indenture; or

●	all the debt securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the trustee for cancellation have become due and payable, or are by their terms are to become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year, and we have deposited with the trustee, in trust, sufficient money or government obligations, or a combination thereof, to pay the principal, any interest and any other sums due on the debt securities, on the dates the payments are due or become due under the indenture and the terms of the debt securities,

then the indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to the debt securities of such series, except for:

●	rights of registration of transfer and exchange, and our right of optional redemption;

●	substitution of mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen debt securities;

●	rights of holders to receive payments of principal thereof and interest thereon upon the original stated due dates therefor (but not upon acceleration) and remaining rights of the holders to receive mandatory sinking fund payments, if any;

●	the rights, obligations and immunities of the trustee under the indenture; and

●	the rights of the holders of such series of debt securities as beneficiaries thereof with respect to the property so deposited with the trustee payable to all or any of them.

Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance. Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we may elect with respect to any debt securities of any series either:

●	to defease and be discharged from all of our obligations with respect to such debt securities (“defeasance”), with certain exceptions described below; or

●	to be released from our obligations with respect to such debt securities under such covenants as may be specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, and any omission to comply with those obligations will not constitute a default or an event of default with respect to such debt securities (“covenant defeasance”).

We must comply with the following conditions before the defeasance or covenant defeasance can be effected:

●	we must irrevocably deposit with the indenture trustee or other qualifying trustee, under the terms of an irrevocable trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the trustee, trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the holders of such debt securities, sufficient money or government obligations, or a combination thereof, to pay the principal, any interest and any other sums on the due dates for those payments; and

●	we must deliver to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of such debt securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of defeasance or covenant defeasance, as the case may be, to be effected with respect to such debt securities and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such defeasance or covenant defeasance, as the case may be, had not occurred.

In connection with defeasance, any irrevocable trust agreement contemplated by the indenture must include, among other things, provision for:

●	payment of the principal of and interest on such debt securities, if any, appertaining thereto when due (by redemption, sinking fund payments or otherwise);

●	the payment of the expenses of the trustee incurred or to be incurred in connection with carrying out such trust provisions;

●	rights of registration, transfer, substitution and exchange of such debt securities in accordance with the terms stated in the indenture; and

●	continuation of the rights, obligations and immunities of the trustee as against the holders of such debt securities as stated in the indenture.

The accompanying prospectus supplement may further describe any provisions permitting or restricting defeasance or covenant defeasance with respect to the debt securities of a particular series.

Global Securities

Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, each debt security offered by this prospectus will be issued in the form of one or more global debt securities representing all or part of that series of debt securities. This means that we will not issue certificates for that series of debt securities to the holders. Instead, a global debt security representing that series will be deposited with, or on behalf of, a securities depositary and registered in the name of the depositary or a nominee of the depositary. Any such depositary must be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act. We will describe the specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to a series of debt securities to be represented by a global security in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Notices

We will give notices to holders of the debt securities by mail at the addresses listed in the security register. In the case of notice in respect of unregistered securities or coupon securities, we may give notice by publication in a newspaper of general circulation in New York, New York.

Governing Law

The particular terms of a series of debt securities will be described in a prospectus supplement relating to such series of debt securities. Any indentures will be subject to and governed by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and may be supplemented or amended from time to time following their execution. Unless otherwise stated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will not be limited in the amount of debt securities that we may issue, and neither the senior debt securities nor the subordinated debt securities will be secured by any of our property or assets. Thus, by owning debt securities, you are one of our unsecured creditors.

Regarding the Trustee

From time to time, we may maintain deposit accounts and conduct other banking transactions with the trustee to be appointed under the indenture or its affiliates in the ordinary course of business.

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

We may offer to sell warrants from time to time. If we do so, we will describe the specific terms of the warrants in a prospectus supplement. In particular, we may issue warrants for the purchase of Common Stock, preferred stock and/or debt securities in one or more series. We may also issue warrants independently or together with other securities and the warrants may be attached to or separate from those securities.

We will evidence each series of warrants by warrant certificates that we will issue under a separate agreement. We will enter into the warrant agreement with a warrant agent. We will indicate the name and address of the warrant agent in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to a particular series of warrants.

We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the series of warrants, including:

●	the offering price and aggregate number of warrants offered;

●	the currency for which the warrants may be purchased;

●	if applicable, the designation and terms of the securities with which the warrants are issued and the number of warrants issued with each such security or each principal amount of such security;

●	if applicable, the date on and after which the warrants and the related securities will be separately transferable;

●	in the case of warrants to purchase debt securities, the principal amount of debt securities purchasable upon exercise of one warrant and the price at, and currency in which, this principal amount of debt securities may be purchased upon such exercise;

●	in the case of warrants to purchase Common Stock or preferred stock, the number of shares of Common Stock or preferred stock, as the case may be, purchasable upon the exercise of one warrant and the price at which these shares may be purchased upon such exercise;

●	the effect of any merger, consolidation, sale or other disposition of our business on the warrant agreement and the warrants;

●	the terms of any rights to redeem or call the warrants;

●	any provisions for changes to or adjustments in the exercise price or number of securities issuable upon exercise of the warrants;

●	the dates on which the right to exercise the warrants will commence and expire;

●	the manner in which the warrant agreement and warrants may be modified;

●	certain United States federal income tax consequences of holding or exercising the warrants;

●	the terms of the securities issuable upon exercise of the warrants; and

●	any other specific material terms, preferences, rights or limitations of or restrictions on the warrants.

Holders may exercise the warrants by delivering the warrant certificate representing the warrants to be exercised together with other requested information, and paying the required amount to the warrant agent in immediately available funds, as provided in the applicable prospectus supplement. We will set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement the information that the holder of the warrant will be required to deliver to the warrant agent.

Upon receipt of the required payment and the warrant certificate properly completed and duly executed at the office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will issue and deliver the securities purchasable upon such exercise. If a holder exercises fewer than all of the warrants represented by the warrant certificate, then we will issue a new warrant certificate for the remaining amount of warrants.

Holder will not have any of the rights of the holders of the securities purchasable upon the exercise of warrants until you exercise them. Accordingly, holder will not be entitled to, among other things, vote or receive dividend payments or similar distributions on the securities you can purchase upon exercise of the warrants.

The information provided above is only a summary of the terms under which we may offer warrants for sale. Accordingly, investors must carefully review the applicable warrant agreement for more information about the specific terms and conditions of these warrants before investing in us. In addition, please carefully review the information provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, which contains additional information that is important for you to consider in evaluating an investment in our securities.

DESCRIPTION OF RIGHTS

We may issue rights to our stockholders to purchase shares of our Common Stock or preferred stock described in this prospectus. We may offer rights separately or together with one or more additional rights, preferred stock, Common Stock, warrants or any combination of those securities in the form of units, as described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Each series of rights will be issued under a separate rights agreement to be entered into between us and a bank or trust company, as rights agent. The rights agent for any rights we offer will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. The rights agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the certificates relating to the rights of the series of certificates and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders of rights certificates or beneficial owners of rights. The following description sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the rights to which any prospectus supplement may relate. The particular terms of the rights to which any prospectus supplement may relate and the extent, if any, to which the general provisions may apply to the rights so offered will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. To the extent that any particular terms of the rights, rights agreement or rights certificates described in a prospectus supplement differ from any of the terms described below, then the terms described below will be deemed to have been superseded by that prospectus supplement.

In connection with any rights offering, we may enter into a standby underwriting or other arrangement with one or more underwriters or other persons pursuant to which such underwriters or other persons would purchase any offered securities remaining unsubscribed for after such rights offering.

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

We may issue units consisting of any combination of the other types of securities offered under this prospectus in one or more series. We may evidence each series of units by unit certificates that we will issue under a separate agreement. We may enter into unit agreements with a unit agent. We will indicate the name and address of the unit agent in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to a particular series of units.

The following description, together with the additional information included in any applicable prospectus supplement, summarizes the general features of the units that we may offer under this prospectus. You should read any prospectus supplement and any free writing prospectus that we may authorize to be provided to you related to the series of units being offered, as well as the complete unit agreements that contain the terms of the units. Specific unit agreements will contain additional important terms and provisions and we will file as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, or will incorporate by reference from another report that we file with the SEC, the form of each unit agreement relating to units offered under this prospectus.

If we offer any units, certain terms of that series of units will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement, including, without limitation, the following, as applicable:

●	the title of the series of units;

●	identification and description of the separate constituent securities comprising the units;

●	the price or prices at which the units will be issued;

●	the date, if any, on and after which the constituent securities comprising the units will be separately transferable;

●	a discussion of certain United States federal income tax considerations applicable to the units; and

●	any other terms of the units and their constituent securities.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell the securities from time to time pursuant to underwritten public offerings, negotiated transactions, block trades or a combination of these methods or through underwriters or dealers, through agents and/or directly to one or more purchasers. The securities may be distributed from time to time in one or more transactions:

●	at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed;

●	at market prices prevailing at the time of sale;

●	at prices related to such prevailing market prices; or

●	at negotiated prices.

Each time that we sell securities covered by this prospectus, we will provide a prospectus supplement or supplements that will describe the method of distribution and set forth the terms and conditions of the offering of such securities, including the offering price of the securities and the proceeds to us, if applicable.

Offers to purchase the securities being offered by this prospectus may be solicited directly. Agents may also be designated to solicit offers to purchase the securities from time to time. Any agent involved in the offer or sale of our securities will be identified in a prospectus supplement.

If a dealer is utilized in the sale of the securities being offered by this prospectus, the securities will be sold to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale.

If an underwriter is utilized in the sale of the securities being offered by this prospectus, an underwriting agreement will be executed with the underwriter at the time of sale and the name of any underwriter will be provided in the prospectus supplement that the underwriter will use to make resales of the securities to the public. In connection with the sale of the securities, we or the purchasers of securities for whom the underwriter may act as agent, may compensate the underwriter in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions. The underwriter may sell the securities to or through dealers, and those dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions from the purchasers for which they may act as agent. Unless otherwise indicated in a prospectus supplement, an agent will be acting on a best efforts basis and a dealer will purchase securities as a principal, and may then resell the securities at varying prices to be determined by the dealer.

Any compensation paid to underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering of the securities, and any discounts, concessions or commissions allowed by underwriters to participating dealers will be provided in the applicable prospectus supplement. Underwriters, dealers and agents participating in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any discounts and commissions received by them and any profit realized by them on resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions. We may enter into agreements to indemnify underwriters, dealers and agents against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments they may be required to make in respect thereof and to reimburse those persons for certain expenses.

Any Common Stock will be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, but any other securities may or may not be listed on a national securities exchange. To facilitate the offering of securities, certain persons participating in the offering may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the securities. This may include over-allotments or short sales of the securities, which involve the sale by persons participating in the offering of more securities than were sold to them. In these circumstances, these persons would cover such over-allotments or short positions by making purchases in the open market or by exercising their over-allotment option, if any. In addition, these persons may stabilize or maintain the price of the securities by bidding for or purchasing securities in the open market or by imposing penalty bids, whereby selling concessions allowed to dealers participating in the offering may be reclaimed if securities sold by them are repurchased in connection with stabilization transactions. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. These transactions may be discontinued at any time.

We may engage in at the market offerings into an existing trading market in accordance with Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act.

In addition, we may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement so indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by us or borrowed from us or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of stock, and may use securities received from us in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of stock. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and, if not identified in this prospectus, will be named in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment). In addition, we may otherwise loan or pledge securities to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the securities short using this prospectus and an applicable prospectus supplement. Such financial institution or other third party may transfer its economic short position to investors in our securities or in connection with a concurrent offering of other securities.

We do not make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above might have on the price of the securities. In addition, we do not make any representation that underwriters will engage in such transactions or that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

The specific terms of any lock-up provisions in respect of any given offering will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

To comply with applicable state securities laws, the securities offered by this prospectus will be sold, if necessary, in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, securities may not be sold in some states 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.

The underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with us, or perform services for us, in the ordinary course of business for which they receive compensation.

LEGAL MATTERS

Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, the validity of the securities offered by this prospectus will be passed upon for us by Ellenoff Grossman & Schole LLP, New York, New York.
