PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED DECEMBER 12, 2025

Actelis Networks, Inc.

Up to 1,639,344 Shares of Common Stock

Up to 1,639,344 Common Warrants to Purchase up to 1,639,344 Shares of Common Stock

Up to 1,639,344 Pre-Funded Warrants to Purchase up to 1,639,344 Shares of Common Stock

Up to 114,754 Placement Agent Warrants to Purchase up to 114,754 Shares of Common Stock

Up to 3,393,443 Shares of Common Stock Issuable Upon Exercise of the Common Warrants, Pre-funded

Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants

We are offering in a best-efforts offering 1,639,344 shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share of Actelis Networks, Inc., a Delaware Company (“Actelis”, the “Company”, “our company”, “we” or “us”), together with up to 1,639,344 common warrants, or the common warrants, to purchase up to 1,639,344 shares of common stock, at an assumed combined public offering price of $3.05 per share of common stock and accompanying common warrant (based the closing price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market, or Nasdaq, on December 9, 2025).

We are also offering to those purchasers, if any, whose purchase of our shares of common stock in this offering would otherwise result in such purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding shares of common stock immediately following the consummation of this offering, the opportunity, in lieu of purchasing shares of common stock, to purchase pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of common stock. Each pre-funded warrant will be immediately exercisable for one share at any time at the option of the holder until such pre-funded warrant is exercised in full, provided that the holder will be prohibited from exercising pre-funded warrants for shares of common stock if, as a result of such exercise, the holder, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, would own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of the total number of shares of common stock then issued and outstanding. The assumed combined purchase price of each pre-funded warrant and common warrant is $3.0499 (which is equal to the assumed combined public offering price per share and common warrant to be sold in this offering minus $0.0001, the exercise price per share of each pre-funded warrant). For each pre-funded warrant we sell, the number of shares of common stock we are offering will be decreased on a one-for-one basis. The pre-funded warrants will be sold together with common warrants in a fixed combination, with each pre-funded warrant to purchase one share accompanied by a common warrant, each warrant to purchase one share of common stock.

Each common warrant will have an exercise price of $           per share, will be exercisable immediately on the effective date of stockholder approval of the issuance of the shares upon exercise of the common warrants (the “Warrant Stockholder Approval Date” and such approval, the “Warrant Stockholder Approval”); provided, however, that, if and only if the Pricing Conditions (as defined below) are met, the common warrants will be exercisable upon issuance. As used herein “Pricing Conditions” means that the combined public offering price per share and accompanying common warrant is such that the Warrant Stockholder Approval is not required under the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC because either (i) the offering is an at-the-market offering under the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC and such price equals or exceeds the sum of (a) the applicable “Minimum Price” per share under Nasdaq Rule 5635(d) plus (b) $0.125 per whole share of common stock underlying the common warrants or (ii) the offering is a discounted offering where the pricing and discount (including attributing a value of $0.125 per whole share underlying the common warrants) meet the pricing requirements under the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC’s rules. The common warrants will expire on the five-year anniversary of the Warrant Stockholder Approval Date, provided that if the Pricing Conditions are met, the common warrants will expire on the five-year anniversary of the date of issuance. Because we will issue one common warrant for each share and for each pre-funded warrant sold in this offering, the number of common warrants sold in this offering will not change as a result of a change in the mix of shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants sold.

We are also registering the shares of common stock issuable from time to time upon the exercise of the pre-funded warrants, common warrants and placement agent warrants offered hereby.

Our shares of common stock are listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ASNS”. On December 11, 2025, the closing price of our shares of common stock was $2.66 per share. There is no established public trading market for the common warrants and pre-funded warrants and we do not expect a market to develop. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of those warrants will be limited. In addition, we do not intend to list the common warrants or pre-funded warrants on The Nasdaq Capital Market, any other national securities exchange or any other trading system.

The public offering price per share will be determined at the time of pricing, and may be at a discount to the then current market price. The recent market price used throughout this prospectus may not be indicative of the final offering price. The final public offering price will be a fixed price determined through negotiation between us and investors based upon a number of factors, including our history and our prospects, the state of the industry in which we operate, our recent operating results, and the general condition of the securities markets at the time of this offering.

This prospectus gives effect to a 10-for-1 reverse share split of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the “Reverse Split”), which was effected on November 18, 2025. Except where otherwise indicated, other than in the historical financial statements and related notes incorporated by reference into this prospectus, all share and per share data in this prospectus have been retroactively restated to reflect the Reverse Split.

This offering will terminate on December 31, 2025, unless we decide to terminate the offering (which we may do at any time in our discretion) prior to that date. We will have one closing for all the securities purchased in this offering. The combined public offering price per share (or pre-funded warrant) and accompanying common warrant will be fixed for the duration of this offering. 

We have engaged H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (the “Placement Agent”) to act as our exclusive placement agent in connection with this offering. The Placement Agent has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of the securities offered by this prospectus. The Placement Agent is not purchasing or selling any of the securities we are offering and the Placement Agent is not required to arrange the purchase or sale of any specific number of securities or dollar amount. We have agreed to pay to the Placement Agent the placement agent fees set forth in the table, which assumes that we sell all of the securities offered by this prospectus. There is no minimum offering requirement as a condition of closing of this offering. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing this offering, we may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us. We will bear all costs associated with the offering and investors in this offering will not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell an amount of securities sufficient to pursue our business goals described in this prospectus. In addition, because there is no escrow account and no minimum offering amount, investors could be in a position where they have invested in our company, but we are unable to fulfill all of our contemplated objectives due to a lack of interest in this offering. Further, any proceeds from the sale of securities offered by us will be available for our immediate use, despite uncertainty about whether we would be able to use such funds to effectively implement our business plan. See “Plan of Distribution” on page 36 of this prospectus for more information regarding these arrangements.

We are an “emerging growth company” as defined under U.S. federal securities laws and, as such, have elected to comply with reduced public company reporting requirements. This prospectus complies with the requirements that apply to an issuer that is an emerging growth company.

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should review carefully the risks and uncertainties described in the section titled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 10 of this prospectus, and under similar headings in any amendments or supplements to this prospectus.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities, or passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

We expect to deliver the securities to the purchasers in the offering on or about           , 2025, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions

H.C. Wainwright & Co.

These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s and the Company’s management team’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future, including statements regarding our future results of operations or financial condition, business strategy and plans, and objectives of management for future operations. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this prospectus may include, for example, statements about: 

The forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus and in any document incorporated by reference are based on current expectations, forecasts and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting we will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control, or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the factors described or incorporated by reference under the heading “Risk Factors” below. 

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. It is not possible to predict or identify all such risks. Accordingly, forward-looking statements in this prospectus and in any document incorporated herein by reference should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

These forward-looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this prospectus, and current expectations, forecasts and assumptions, and involve a number of judgments, risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date, and we do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

You should read this prospectus and the documents that we reference in this prospectus and have filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. Those statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this prospectus and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and such statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. Those statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon those statements.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below together with all of the other information contained in this prospectus before deciding to invest in our securities. If any of the events or developments described below were to occur, our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition could suffer materially, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. We also update risk factors from time to time in our periodic reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K which will be incorporated by reference in this prospectus. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also adversely affect our business.

Risks Related to Our Business

We have a history of net losses, may incur substantial net losses in the future, and may not achieve or sustain profitability or growth in future periods. If we cannot achieve and sustain profitability, our business, financial condition, and operating results will be adversely affected.

We have incurred net losses in recent years, and we may not achieve or maintain profitability in the future. We experienced a net loss of $5.7 million and $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September  30, 2024, respectively. As a result, we had an accumulated deficit of $50 million as of September 30, 2025. We cannot predict when or whether we will reach or maintain profitability.

We may also increase our operating expenses in the future as we continue to invest for our future growth, including expanding our research and development function to drive further development of our platform, expanding our sales and marketing activities, developing the functionality to expand into adjacent markets, and reaching customers in new geographic locations, which will negatively affect our operating results if our total revenues do not increase. In addition to the anticipated costs to grow our business, we also expect to incur significant additional legal, accounting, and other expenses as a newly public company. These efforts and additional expenses may be more costly than we expect, and we cannot guarantee that we will be able to increase our revenues to offset our operating expenses. Any failure to increase our revenues or to manage our costs as we invest in our business would prevent us from achieving or maintaining profitability.

Our shares of common stock could be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market if we fail to regain compliance with the Nasdaq’s stockholders’ equity continued listing standards. Our ability to publicly or privately sell equity securities and the liquidity of our shares of common stock could be adversely affected if we are delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market.

On August 25, 2023, we received a notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that we are not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) due to our failure to comply with the Minimum Shareholders’ Equity Requirement or any alternatives to such requirement. In order to maintain our listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we submitted a plan of compliance addressing how we intended to regain compliance. On March 27, 2024, we received a delist determination letter from Nasdaq advising us that the Staff had determined to delist our securities from Nasdaq due to non-compliance with the Minimum Shareholders’ Equity Requirement, unless we timely request a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). We timely requested a hearing before the Panel.

On August 27, 2024, we received formal written notice from Nasdaq confirming that we have evidenced compliance with all applicable criteria for continued listing on Nasdaq as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550, including the Minimum Shareholders’ Equity Requirement. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5815(d)(4)(B), we remained subject to a panel monitor for equity compliance through August 27, 2025.

On May 12, 2025, Nasdaq notified us (the “Notification Letter”) that we were not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), which requires our Common Stock to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share (the “Bid Price Rule”). The Notification Letter had no immediate effect on the listing or trading of our Common Stock on Nasdaq and, at this time, the Common Stock will continue to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol “ASNS”. The Notification Letter provided that we have 180 calendar days, or until November 10, 2025, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule.

On August 19, 2025, we received written notice from Nasdaq stating that, due to the Company’s non-compliance with the Minimum Shareholders’ Equity Requirement as of June 30, 2025, and because, pursuant to Listing Rule 5815(d)(4)(B), the Company remained subject to a mandatory hearing panel monitor through August 27, 2025, the Company’s securities were subject to delisting from Nasdaq unless the Company timely requests a hearing before the Panel. The Company has its hearing with the Panel on September 30, 2025.

At the hearing, the Company presented its plan to evidence compliance with the Equity Rule and all other applicable criteria for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, and requested to remain listed subject to its plan to regain compliance.

On October 28, 2025, we received a listing decision from Nasdaq notifying us that the Panel determined that the Company evidenced compliance with the Shareholders’ Equity Requirement.

The Panel also granted the Company’s request for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, pursuant to an exception through December 5, 2025, to regain compliance with the bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(1). In order to evidence compliance with the bid price requirement, the Company must evidence a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10, but generally not more than 20, consecutive business days. On November 7, 2025, we held a special meeting of shareholders where our shareholders approved, among other things, the Reverse Split. The Reverse Split was effected on November 18, 2025.

On December 3, 2025, the Company received formal notice from Nasdaq that the Company has regained compliance with the Bid Price Rule and evidenced compliance with all other applicable criteria for continued listing on Nasdaq. Accordingly, the previously disclosed listing matter has been closed.

The Company will remain subject to a one-year “Panel Monitor”, as contemplated by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5815(d)(4)(A), through December 5, 2026. If during that period the Company fails to satisfy any of the criteria for continued listing on Nasdaq, the Staff may not grant the Company additional time to regain compliance. Rather, Nasdaq will issue a delist determination, which the Company may address by requesting a new hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel.

We have in the past, and may in the future, be unable to comply with certain of the listing standards that we are required to meet to maintain the listing of our shares of common stock on Nasdaq. If we fail to satisfy the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq, such as minimum stockholders’ equity requirements or minimum bid price requirements, Nasdaq may take steps to delist our shares of common stock. Such a delisting would have a negative effect on the price of our shares of common stock, impair the ability to sell or purchase our shares of common stock when persons wish to do so, and any delisting materially adversely affect our ability to raise capital or pursue strategic restructuring, refinancing or other transactions on acceptable terms, or at all. Delisting from Nasdaq could also have other negative results, including the potential loss of institutional investor interest and fewer business development opportunities, as well as a limited amount of news and analyst coverage of us. Delisting could also result in a determination that our shares of common stock are a “penny stock,” which would require brokers trading in our shares of common stock to adhere to more stringent rules, possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary market for our shares of common stock. In the event of a delisting, we would attempt to take actions to restore our compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements, but we can provide no assurance that any such action taken by us would allow our shares of common stock to become listed again, stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our securities, prevent our shares of common stock from dropping below the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement or prevent future non-compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements.

Risks Related to Managing Our Business Operations in Israel

Conditions in the Middle East and in Israel, where our research and development facilities are located, may harm our operations.

Our office where we conduct our research and development, operations, sales outside the Americas, and administration activities, is located in Israel. Many of our employees are residents of Israel. Most of our officers and directors are residents of Israel. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a number of armed conflicts have taken place between Israel and its neighboring countries, and between Israel and the Hamas (an Islamist militia and political group in the Gaza Strip), Hezbollah (an Islamist militia and political group in Lebanon), and Iran.

In October 2023, Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of attacks on civilian and military targets. Hamas also launched extensive rocket attacks on Israeli population and industrial centers located along Israel’s border with the Gaza Strip and in other areas within the State of Israel. These attacks resulted in extensive deaths, injuries and kidnapping of civilians and soldiers. Following the attack, Israel’s security cabinet declared war against Hamas and a military campaign against these terrorist organizations commenced in parallel to their continued rocket and terror attacks. On January 19, 2025, a temporary ceasefire went into effect. On March 18, 2025 the ceasefire ended with the resumption of the war between Israel and Hamas.

In addition, since the commencement of these events, there have been continued hostilities along Israel’s northern border with Lebanon (with the Hezbollah terror organization) and on other fronts from various extremist groups in region, such as the Houthis in Yemen and various rebel militia groups in Syria and Iraq. In October 2024, Israel began limited ground operations against Hezbollah in Lebanon, and in November 2024, a ceasefire was brokered between Israel and Hezbollah. In addition, Iran recently launched direct attacks on Israel involving hundreds of drones and missiles and has threatened to continue to attack Israel and is widely believed to be developing nuclear weapons. Iran is also believed to have a strong influence among extremist groups in the region, such as Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthi movement in Yemen and various rebel militia groups in Syria and Iraq. These situations may potentially escalate in the future to more violent events which may affect Israel and us. Additionally, Yemeni rebel group, the Houthis, launched series of attacks on global shipping routes in the Red Sea, causing disruptions of supply chain. Such clashes may escalate in the future into a greater regional conflict.

As of the date of this prospectus, we have not been impacted by any absences of personnel at our service providers or counterparties located in Israel. Military service call ups that result in absences of personnel from us for an extended period of time may materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. As of the date of this prospectus, we currently have 38 full-time employees, with 33 employees located in Israel and 5 employee located outside of Israel.

Since the war broke out on October 7, 2023, our operations have not been adversely affected by this situation, and we have not experienced any material disruptions to our operations. We have the ability, if necessary, to shift our manufacturing from Israel to other countries where we have business partners, and we have not had customers in Israel in the last year. However, the intensity and duration of Israel’s current war is difficult to predict at this stage, as are such war’s economic implications on the Company’s business and operations and on Israel’s economy in general. If the ceasefires declared collapse or a new war commences or hostilities expand to other fronts, our operations may be adversely affected. 

Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of events associated with the security situation in the Middle East. Although the Israeli government currently covers the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure you that this government coverage will be maintained. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business. Any armed conflicts or political instability in the region would likely negatively affect business conditions and could harm our results of operations. To-date, we have received Israeli government war related support funding of approximately $100,000.

The continued political instability and hostilities between Israel and its neighbors and any future armed conflict, terrorist activity or political instability in the region could adversely affect our operations in Israel and adversely affect the market price of our shares of common stock. In addition, several organizations and countries may restrict doing business with Israel and Israeli companies have been and are today subjected to economic boycotts. The interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its present trading partners could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Finally, political conditions within Israel may affect our operations. Israel has held five general elections between 2019 and 2022, and prior to October 2023, the Israeli government pursued extensive changes to Israel’s judicial system, which sparked extensive political debate and unrest. Actual or perceived political instability in Israel or any negative changes in the political environment, may individually or in the aggregate adversely affect the Israeli economy and, in turn, our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. 

Risks Relating to this Offering

The best efforts structure of this offering may have an adverse effect on our business plan.

The Placement Agent has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the securities in this offering. The Placement Agent has no obligation to buy any of the securities from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of the securities. There is no required minimum number of securities that must be sold as a condition to completion of this offering. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to the closing of this offering, the actual offering amount, placement agent fees and proceeds to us are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amounts set forth above. We may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us, and investors in this offering will not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell an amount of securities sufficient to support our continued operations, including our near-term continued operations. Thus, we may not raise the amount of capital we believe is required for our operations in the short-term and may need to raise additional funds, which may not be available or available on terms acceptable to us. The success of this offering will impact our ability to use the proceeds to execute our business plan. We may have insufficient capital to implement our business plan, potentially resulting in greater operating losses unless we are able to raise the required capital from alternative sources. There is no assurance that alternative capital, if needed, would be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

This offering is being made on a best efforts basis and we may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby and may receive significantly less in net proceeds from this offering, which will provide us only limited working capital.

This offering is being made on a best efforts basis and we may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby and may receive significantly less in net proceeds from this offering. Based on our current business plans, which we cannot guarantee that they will be achieved, and that we neither use our ELOC Purchase Agreement nor our At The Market Offering Agreement, (i) assuming that we receive net proceeds of approximately $4.46 million from this offering (assuming an offering with gross proceeds of $5 million), we believe that the net proceeds from this offering together with our existing cash and cash equivalents, will meet our capital needs through the end of the second quarter of 2027, (ii) assuming that we receive net proceeds of approximately $3.54 million from this offering (assuming an offering with gross proceeds of $4 million), we believe that the net proceeds from this offering, together with our existing cash and cash equivalents, will satisfy our capital needs through the end of the fourth quarter of 2026, (iii)assuming that we receive net proceeds of approximately $2.62 million from this offering (assuming an offering with gross proceeds of $3 million), we believe that the net proceeds from this offering, together with our existing cash and cash equivalents, will satisfy our capital needs through the end of the second quarter of 2026.

Our management team will have immediate and broad discretion over the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may not use them effectively.

We currently intend to use the net proceeds of this offering for continued development of our pipeline products, as well as the advancement of new programs, business development activities, and general corporate purposes. See “Use of Proceeds.” However, our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds. Our shareholders may not agree with the manner in which our management chooses to allocate the net proceeds from this offering. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in a manner that does not produce income. The decisions made by our management may not result in positive returns on your investment and you will not have an opportunity to evaluate the economic, financial or other information upon which our management bases its decisions.

You will experience immediate dilution in the book value per share of the common stock purchased in the offering.

Since the public offering price of our common stock (or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof) and common warrants in this offering is substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our outstanding common stock outstanding prior to this offering, you will suffer dilution in the book value of the common stock you purchase in this offering. The exercise of outstanding warrants, including warrants sold in this offering, may result in further dilution of your investment. See the section titled “Dilution” for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you purchase shares in this offering.

Purchasers who purchase our securities in this offering pursuant to a securities purchase agreement may have rights not available to purchasers that purchase without the benefit of a securities purchase agreement.

In addition to rights and remedies available to all purchasers in this offering under federal securities and state law, the purchasers that enter into a securities purchase agreement will also be able to bring claims of breach of contract against us. The ability to pursue a claim for breach of contract provides those investors with the means to enforce the covenants uniquely available to them under the securities purchase agreement including: (i) timely delivery of shares; (ii) agreement to not enter into variable rate financings for one (1) year from closing, subject to certain exceptions; (iii) agreement to not enter into any financings for sixty (60) days from closing; and (iv) indemnification for breach of contract.

Common stock representing a substantial percentage of our outstanding shares may be sold in this offering, which could cause the price of our common stock to decline.

We may sell in this offering up to 1,639,344 common stock, or approximately 94 % of our outstanding common stock, prior to this offering, as of December 9, 2025. This sale and any future sales of a substantial number of common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could materially adversely affect the price of our common stock. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of those common stock or the availability of those common stock for sale will have on the market price of our common stock.

The price of our common stock may be volatile, and the value of our common stock may decline.

We cannot predict the prices at which our common stock will trade. The price of our common stock may not bear any relation to any established criteria of the value of our business and prospects. In addition, the trading price of our common stock is likely to be volatile and could be subject to fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. These fluctuations could cause you to lose all or part of your investment in our common stock as you might be unable to sell your shares at or above the price you paid. Factors that could cause fluctuations in the trading price of our common stock include the following:

Broad market and industry fluctuations, as well as general economic, political, regulatory and market conditions, may also negatively impact the market price of our common stock. In the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their securities have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future, which could result in substantial expenses and divert our management’s attention.

If we are required to obtain Warrant Stockholder Approval, until we are able to receive such approval the Common Warrants will not be exercisable, and if we are unable to obtain such approval the Common Warrants will have no value.

The common warrants will have an exercise price of $ per share and will be exercisable beginning on the Warrant Stockholder Approval Date; provided, however, if the Pricing Conditions are met, the common warrants will be exercisable upon issuance. The common warrants will expire on the five-year anniversary of the Warrant Stockholder Approval Date, provided that if the Pricing Conditions are met, the common warrants will expire on the five-year anniversary of the date of issuance.

If we are required to obtain Warrant Stockholder Approval, the common warrants will not be exercisable until, and unless, we obtain the Warrant Stockholder Approval from our stockholders. While we intend to promptly seek the Warrant Stockholder Approval, if required, there is no guarantee that the Warrant Stockholder Approval will ever be obtained. If we are unable to obtain the Warrant Stockholder Approval, the common warrants will have no value. In addition, we will incur substantial cost, and management will devote substantial time and attention, in attempting to obtain the Warrant Stockholder Approval.

There is no public market for the common warrants being offered or pre-funded warrants in this offering.

There is no established public trading market for the common warrants being offered or the pre-funded warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the pre-funded warrants or common warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active market, the liquidity of the pre-funded warrants and common warrants will be limited.

The common warrants and the pre-funded warrants are speculative in nature.

The common warrants and the pre-funded warrants offered hereby do not confer any rights of share ownership on their holders, such as voting rights or the right to receive dividends, but rather merely represent the right to acquire shares at a fixed price. Specifically, commencing on the date of issuance, holders of the pre-funded warrants may acquire the shares issuable upon exercise of such warrants at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share. Moreover, following this offering, the market value of the pre-funded warrants is uncertain and there can be no assurance that the market value of the pre-funded warrants will equal or exceed the public offering price for the pre-funded warrants.

The common warrants may not have any value.

Each common warrant has an exercise price per share equal to $             . The common warrants will expire on the five-year anniversary of the Warrant Stockholder Approval Date, provided that if the Pricing Conditions are met, the common warrants will expire on the five-year anniversary of the date of issuance. In the event the market price per our share does not exceed the exercise price of the common warrants during the period when the warrants are exercisable, the common warrants may not have any value.

Holders of the pre-funded warrants and common warrants offered hereby will have no rights as shareholders with respect to the shares underlying those warrants until such holders exercise their warrants and acquire our shares, except as otherwise provided in the common warrants.

Until holders of the pre-funded warrants and common warrants acquire our shares upon exercise thereof, such holders will have no rights with respect to the shares underlying such warrants, except to the extent that holders of such warrants will have certain rights to participate in distributions or dividends paid on our shares as set forth in the warrants. Upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants and common warrants, the holders will be entitled to exercise the rights of a shareholder only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the exercise date.

Because we have no current plans to pay cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future, you may not receive any return on investment unless you sell Actelis common stock for a price greater than that which you paid for it.

We will likely retain future earnings, if any, for future operations, expansion and debt repayment and have no current plans to pay any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Any decision to declare and pay dividends as a public company in the future will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, contractual restrictions, funds lawfully available therefor and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. In addition, our ability to pay dividends may be limited by covenants of any existing and future outstanding indebtedness we or our subsidiaries incur. As a result, you may not receive any return on an investment in our common stock unless you sell our common stock for a price greater than that which you paid for it.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Assuming the maximum number of common stock are sold in this offering at an assumed public offering price of $3.05 per share and accompanying common warrant, which represents the closing price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 9, 2025, and assuming no issuance of pre-funded warrants in connection with this offering, we estimate the net proceeds of the offering will be approximately $4.46 million, after deducting the Placement Agent’s fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. However, this is a best efforts offering with no minimum number of securities or amount of proceeds as a condition to closing, and we may not sell all or any of these securities offered pursuant to this prospectus; as a result, we may receive significantly less in net proceeds. We cannot predict when or if the pre-funded warrants, the common warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants will be exercised, or if they will be exercised for cash. It is possible that the common warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants may expire and may never be exercised.  

Each $0.10 increase (decrease) in the assumed public offering price of $3.05 per share and accompanying common warrant would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from this offering, after deducting the estimated placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, by $0.16 million, assuming that the number of common stock and accompanying common warrants offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same. We may also increase or decrease the number of common stock and accompanying common warrants we are offering. An increase (decrease) of  100,000  in the number of common stock and accompanying common warrants we are offering would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from this offering, after deducting the estimated placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, by $0.3  million, assuming the assumed public offering price stays the same.

We currently intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes. Accordingly, we retain broad discretion over the use of the net proceeds from the sale of our common stock and accompanying common warrants (or pre-funded warrants and common warrants, if applicable), pursuant to this prospectus. The precise amount and timing of the application of such proceeds will depend upon our liquidity needs and the availability and cost of other capital over which we have little or no control.

Pending the use of the net proceeds from this offering as described above, we intend to invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments, short and intermediate term, interest-bearing, investment-grade instruments, U.S. government securities and highly rated corporate debt securities, although our investment policy may change following the date of this prospectus supplement. It is possible that, pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds in a way that does not yield a favorable, or any, return for us.

CAPITALIZATION

The following table sets forth our capitalization as of September 30, 2025 as follows:

The as adjusted information below is illustrative only and our capitalization following the completion of this offering is subject to various adjustments. The pro forma as adjusted amounts shown below are unaudited and represent management’s estimate. The information in this table should be read in conjunction with and is qualified by reference to the financial statements and notes thereto and other financial information contained in this prospectus. 

Each $0.10 increase (decrease) in an assumed combined public offering price of $3.05 per share and accompanying common warrant would increase (decrease) the amount of cash and cash equivalents and total stockholders’ equity by $0.16 million, assuming that the number of shares and accompanying common warrants offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus remains the same and after deducting the Placement Agent’s fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We may also increase or decrease the number of shares and accompanying common warrants we are offering. An increase (decrease) of 100,000 in the number of shares we are offering would increase (decrease) the amount of cash and cash equivalents and total shareholders equity by $0.3 million, after deducting the estimated Placement Agent’s fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, assuming the assumed combined public offering price stays the same. The information discussed above is illustrative only and will adjust based on the actual combined public offering price, the actual number of shares that we offer in this offering, and other terms of this offering determined at pricing.

The above table is based on 1,746,735 shares outstanding as of September 30, 2025 and excludes as of that date: 

DILUTION

If you purchase our common stock and accompanying common warrants in this offering, you will experience dilution to the extent of the difference between the combined public offering price per share and accompanying common warrant you pay in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after this offering.

The net tangible book value of our common stock on September 30, 2025 was approximately $3 million, or approximately $1.70 per share. Net tangible book value per share is equal to the amount of our total tangible assets, less total liabilities, divided by the aggregate number of our common stock outstanding.

After giving effect to the Pro Forma Adjustments described above, our pro forma net tangible book value as of September 30, 2025, would have been approximately $3 million, or approximately $1.56 per share.

After giving further effect to the assumed sale by us of all common stock and accompanying common warrants offered by means of this prospectus at an assumed public offering price of $3.05 per share and accompanying common warrant, which public offering price is based on the closing price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 9, 2025, assuming no sale of pre-funded warrants and after deducting the Placement Agent’s fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, and without giving effect to the exercise of the common warrants issued in this offering, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of September 30, 2025 would have been approximately $7.48 million, or approximately $2.80 per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of approximately $1.10 per share to existing shareholders and an immediate dilution of approximately $0.25 per share to new investors in this offering (which dilution amount disregards both the common stock warrants sold in this offering and the common stock issuable upon exercise of those common stock warrants).

The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

Each $0.10 increase (decrease) in an assumed combined public offering price of $3.05 per share and accompanying common warrant would increase (decrease) our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value after this offering by approximately $0.05 per share, and the dilution per share to new investors by approximately $0.05 per share and accompanying common warrant, assuming that the number of shares and accompanying common warrants offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same and after deducting the Placement Agent’s fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We may also increase or decrease the number of shares and accompanying common warrants we are offering. An increase (decrease) of 100,000 in the number of shares we are offering would (decrease) increase the dilution per share to new investors to approximately $0.05, after deducting the estimated Placement Agent’s fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, assuming the assumed combined public offering price stays the same. The information discussed above is illustrative only and will adjust based on the actual combined public offering price, the actual number of shares that we offer in this offering, and other terms of this offering determined at pricing.

The above table is based on 1,746,735 shares outstanding as of September 30, 2025 and excludes as of that date: 

To the extent that any of our options or warrants listed above are exercised, new options are issued under our equity incentive plan and subsequently exercised, or we issue additional common stock in the future, there will be further dilution to new investors participating in this offering.

MARKET INFORMATION FOR SECURITIES AND DIVIDEND POLICY

Market Information

Our common shares are currently listed on Nasdaq under the symbols “ASNS.” As of   December 12, 2025, we had outstanding shares of common stock outstanding, including treasury shares, no outstanding shares of preferred stock, and approximately 52 holders of record of our outstanding shares of common stock. A significant number of shares of our common stock are held in either nominee name or street name brokerage accounts, and consequently, we are unable to determine the total number of beneficial owners of our common stock.

Dividend Policy

To date, we have not paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not plan to pay such dividends in the foreseeable future. Our Board will determine our future dividend policy on the basis of many factors, including results of operations, capital requirements, and general business conditions. Dividends, under the Delaware General Corporation Law, may only be paid from our net profits or surplus. To date, we have not had a fiscal year with net profits and, subject to a valuation by the Board of the present value of the Company’s assets, do not have surplus. 

DESCRIPTION OF SHARE CAPITAL

The following description is intended as a summary of our certificate of incorporation, as amended (“Charter”) and our amended and restated bylaws (“Bylaws”). Because the following is only a summary, it does not contain all of the information that may be important to you. For a complete description, you should refer to our Charter and Bylaws.

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market, or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. This prospectus provides you with a general description of the common stock the selling stockholders may offer.

Authorized Capital Stock

Our Charter authorizes us to issue up to 42,803,774 shares consisting of 30,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share, 2,803,774 shares of non-voting common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of September 30, 2025, there were 52 holders of record of our common stock.

Common Stock

The shares of our common stock have the following rights, preferences and privileges:

Voting Rights

Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Any action at a meeting at which a quorum is present will be decided by a majority of the voting power present in person or represented by proxy, except in the case of any election of directors, which will be decided by a plurality of votes cast. There is no cumulative voting.

Dividend Rights

Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available for payment, subject to the rights of holders, if any, of any class of stock having preference over the common stock. Any decision to pay dividends on our common stock will be at the discretion of our board of directors. Our board of directors may or may not determine to declare dividends in the future. See “Dividend Policy.” The board’s determination to issue dividends will depend upon our profitability and financial condition any contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and the SEC, and other factors that our board of directors deems relevant.

Liquidation Rights

In the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to share ratably on the basis of the number of shares held in any of the assets available for distribution after we have paid in full, or provided for payment of, all of our debts and after the holders of all outstanding series of any class of stock have preference over the common stock, if any, have received their liquidation preferences in full.

Other Rights and Preferences

Upon the closing of this offering, holders of our common stock will have no pre-emptive, conversion, subscription or other rights, and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock. The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of our common stock are subject to and may be adversely affected by the rights of the holders of shares of any series of our preferred stock that we may designate in the future. Upon the closing of this offering, shares of our common stock are not convertible into shares of any other class of capital stock, nor are they subject to any redemption or sinking fund provisions.

Fully paid and nonassessable

All of our outstanding shares of common stock are, and the shares of common stock to be issued in this offering will be, fully paid and nonassessable.

Preferred stock

We are authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Our Charter authorizes the board to issue these shares in one or more series, to determine the designations and the powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, including the dividend rights, conversion or exchange rights, voting rights (including the number of votes per share), redemption rights and terms, liquidation preferences, sinking fund provisions and the number of shares constituting the series. Our board of directors could, without stockholder approval, issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of common stock and which could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, a majority of our outstanding voting stock. Upon the closing of this offering, no shares of preferred stock will be outstanding.

Charter and Bylaw Provisions

Charter and Bylaw Provisions

Our Charter and our Bylaws to be effective upon the closing of this offering, include a number of provisions that could deter hostile takeovers or delay or prevent changes in control of our management team, including the following:

Anti-Takeover Provisions

The provisions of the DGCL, our Charter and our Bylaws may have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging another person from acquiring control of our company. These provisions, which are summarized below, may have the effect of discouraging takeover bids. They are also designed, in part, to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate first with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with an unfriendly or unsolicited acquirer outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging a proposal to acquire us because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

Our Charter established a classified board of directors, divided in three classes with staggered three-year terms. Under the classified board of directors structure, only one class of directors would be elected at each annual meeting of our stockholders, with the other classes continuing for the remainder for their respective three-year terms. Under the classified board of directors structure: (i) directors in Class I, consisting of Gideon Marks and Julie Kunstler, are to stand for election at the Annual Meeting to be held in 2026; (ii) directors in Class II, consisting of Niel Ransom, are to stand for election at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2027; and (iii) directors in Class III, consisting of Tuvia Barlev, are to stand for election at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2028.

Limitations on Liability, Indemnification of officers and directors and insurance

Our Charter and Bylaws contain provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. Consequently, our directors will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for:

Listing

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ASNS”.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock will be VStock Transfer, LLC. The transfer agent and registrar’s address is 18 Lafayette Place, Woodmere, NY 11598.

Exclusive Forum

Our Charter provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by, or other wrongdoing by, any current or former director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Company to the Company or the Company’s stockholders, (c) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any current or former director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Corporation arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the Company’s Charter or Bylaws, (d) any action to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of the Company’s Charter or Bylaws, or (e) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine or (f) any action asserting an “internal corporate claim” as that term is defined in Section 115 of the General Corporation Law. The federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint, claim or proceeding asserting a cause of action arising under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act. Furthermore, Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

Stockholders cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in shares of our capital stock shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the forum provision in our Charter.

The choice-of-forum provision may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with the Company or its directors, officers or other employees, and may result in increased costs to a stockholder who has to bring a claim in a forum that is not convenient to the stockholder, which may discourage such lawsuits. Although under Section 115 of the DGCL exclusive forum provisions may be included in a company’s certificate of incorporation, the enforceability of similar forum provisions in other companies’ certificates or incorporation or bylaws has been challenged in legal proceedings, and it is possible that a court could find these types of provisions to be inapplicable or unenforceable. If a court were to find the exclusive forum provision of our Charter inapplicable or unenforceable with respect to one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and result in a diversion of the time and resources of our management and board of directors.

Anti-Takeover Provisions of the DGCL and Charter Provisions

Certain provisions of the DGCL and certain provisions included in our Charter and Bylaws summarized below may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, deter, or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider to be in its best interests, including attempts that might result in a premium being paid over the market price for the shares held by stockholders.

Removal of Directors

Our Bylaws provide that stockholders may only remove a director with or without cause by a vote of no less than a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote, voting together as a single class.

Amendments to Charter

Certain sections of our Charter require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote, voting together as a single class, except that the provision in the Charter regarding the staggered board may not be repealed or amended without the vote of the holders of not less than 80% of the Company’s voting stock, voting as a single class.

Staggered Board

The board of directors is divided into three classes, with regular three-year staggered terms. This classification system increases the difficulty of replacing a majority of the directors and may tend to discourage a third-party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to gain control of the Company. In addition, under Delaware law, the Certificate and the By-Laws, the Company’s directors may be removed from office by the stockholders only for cause and only in the manner provided for in the Certificate. These factors may maintain the incumbency of the board of directors.

Amendments to Bylaws

Our Charter limits the abilities of the directors and stockholders to amend our Bylaws in certain circumstances. In particular, the Bylaws may be amended only by the vote of a majority of all of the directors then in office, or by the affirmative vote of the stockholders holding at least 75% of the outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote in accordance with the provisions of the Charter, Bylaws, and the DGCL.

No Cumulative Voting

Our Charter does not provide for cumulative voting.

Special Meetings of Stockholders

Our Bylaws provide that, except as otherwise required by law, special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by an officer at the request of a majority of our board of directors, by our Chief Executive Officer or President or by the holders of not less than 25% of the holders of stock entitled to vote at the meeting.

Stockholders Agreement

We are party to the Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement, dated February 2, 2016 (the “Stockholders Agreement”), pursuant to which certain holders of our common stock have the right to demand that we file a registration statement or request that their common stock be covered by a registration statement that we are otherwise filing. All rights under the Stockholders Agreement will terminate upon the closing of this offering.

CERTAIN MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

The following discussion is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to non-U.S. holders (as defined below) of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock issued pursuant to this offering, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential tax effects. The effects of other U.S. federal tax laws, such as estate and gift tax laws, and any applicable state, local or foreign tax laws are not addressed herein. This discussion is based on the Code, Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial decisions, and published rulings and administrative pronouncements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, in effect as of the date of this offering. These authorities may change or be subject to differing interpretations. Any such change or differing interpretation may be applied retroactively in a manner that could adversely affect a non-U.S. holder of our common stock. We have not sought and will not seek any rulings from the IRS regarding the matters discussed below. There can be no assurance the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position regarding the tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock.

This discussion is limited to non-U.S. holders that hold our common stock as a “capital asset” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant to a non-U.S. holder’s particular circumstances, including the impact of the alternative minimum tax or the unearned income Medicare contribution tax. In addition, it does not address consequences relevant to holders subject to particular rules, including, without limitation:

If a partnership (or other entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds our common stock, the tax treatment of a partner (or person or entity treated as a partner) in the partnership will depend on the status of the partner, the activities of the partnership and certain determinations made at the partner level. Accordingly, partnerships holding our common stock and the partners in such partnerships should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences to them.

THIS DISCUSSION IS FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED AS LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE. INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AS WELL AS ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF OUR COMMON STOCK ARISING UNDER THE U.S. FEDERAL ESTATE OR GIFT TAX LAWS OR UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY STATE, LOCAL OR NON-U.S. TAXING JURISDICTION OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE INCOME TAX TREATY.

Definition of a Non-U.S. Holder

For purposes of this discussion, a “non-U.S. holder” is any beneficial owner of our common stock that is neither a “U.S. person,” nor an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its place of organization or formation. A U.S. person is any person that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is or is treated as any of the following:

An individual non-U.S. citizen may, in some cases, be deemed to be a resident alien (as opposed to a nonresident alien) by virtue of being present in the United States for at least 31 days in the calendar year and for an aggregate of at least 183 days during a three-year period ending in the current calendar year. Generally, for this purpose, all the days present in the current year, one-third of the days present in the immediately preceding year, and one-sixth of the days present in the second preceding year, are counted.

Resident aliens are generally subject to U.S. federal income tax as if they were U.S. citizens. Individuals who are uncertain of their status as resident or nonresident aliens for U.S. federal income tax purposes are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership or disposition of our common stock.

Distributions

As described in the section titled “Dividend Policy,” we do not anticipate declaring or paying distributions to holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future. However, if we do make distributions on our common stock, such distributions of cash or property on our common stock will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Amounts not treated as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes will first constitute a return of capital and be applied against and reduce a non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in its common stock, but not below zero. Any excess will be treated as capital gain and will be treated as described below under “— Sale or Other Disposition of common stock.”

Subject to the discussion below on effectively connected income, backup withholding and foreign accounts, dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder of our common stock that are not effectively connected with the non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% of the gross amount of the dividends (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty).

Non-U.S. holders may be entitled to a reduction in or an exemption from withholding on dividends as a result of either (a) an applicable income tax treaty or (b) the non-U.S. holder holding our common stock in connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States and dividends being effectively connected with that trade or business. To claim such a reduction in or exemption from withholding, the non-U.S. holder must provide the applicable withholding agent with a properly executed (a) IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable documentation) claiming an exemption from or reduction of the withholding tax under the benefit of an income tax treaty between the United States and the country in which the non-U.S. holder resides or is established, or (b) IRS Form W-8ECI stating that the dividends are not subject to withholding tax because they are effectively connected with the conduct by the non-U.S. holder of a trade or business within the United States, as may be applicable. These certifications must be provided to the applicable withholding agent prior to the payment of dividends and must be updated periodically. If a non-U.S. holder holds stock through a financial institution or other agent acting on the holder’s behalf, the holder will be required to provide appropriate documentation to such agent. The holder’s agent will then be required to provide certification to us or our paying agent, either directly or through other intermediaries. Non-U.S. holders that do not timely provide the applicable withholding agent with the required certification, but that qualify for a reduced rate under an applicable income tax treaty, may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS.

Subject to the discussions below regarding backup withholding and the FATCA, if dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder are effectively connected with the non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, the non-U.S. holder maintains a permanent establishment in the United States to which such dividends are attributable), then, although exempt from U.S. federal withholding tax (provided the non-U.S. holder provides appropriate certification, as described above), the non-U.S. holder will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on such dividends on a net income basis at the regular U.S. federal income tax rates. In addition, a non-U.S. holder that is a corporation may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on its effectively connected earnings and profits for the taxable year that are attributable to such dividends, as adjusted for certain items. Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their entitlement to benefits under any applicable income tax treaty.

Sale or Other Disposition of common stock

Subject to the discussions below on backup withholding and FATCA, a non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain realized upon the sale or other disposition of our common stock (including a redemption, but only if the redemption would be treated as a sale or exchange rather than as a distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes) unless:

Gain described in the first bullet point above will generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at the regular U.S. federal income tax rates. A non-U.S. holder that is a foreign corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on its effectively connected earnings and profits, as adjusted for certain items, which will include such effectively connected gain.

A non-U.S. holder described in the second bullet point above will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on any gain derived from the disposition, which may be offset by certain U.S. source capital losses of the non-U.S. holder (even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States) provided the non-U.S. holder has timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses.

With respect to the third bullet point above, we would be a USRPHC if our USRPIs comprise (by fair market value) at least 50 percent of our business assets. We believe we are not currently and do not anticipate becoming a USRPHC. Because the determination of whether we are a USRPHC depends on the fair market value of our USRPIs relative to the fair market value of our other business assets and our non-U.S. real property interests, however, there can be no assurance we are not a USRPHC or will not become one in the future. Even if we are or were to become a USRPHC, gain arising from the sale or other taxable disposition by a non-U.S. holder of our common stock will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax if our common stock is “regularly traded,” as defined by applicable Treasury Regulations, on an established securities market, and such non-U.S. holder owned, actually and constructively, 5% or less of our common stock throughout the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of the sale or other taxable disposition or the non-U.S. holder’s holding period. There can be no assurance that our common stock will continue to qualify as regularly traded on an established securities market. If any gain on your disposition is taxable because we are a United States real property holding corporation and your ownership of our common stock exceeds 5%, you will be taxed on such disposition generally in the manner as gain that is effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business (subject to the provisions under an applicable income tax treaty), except that the branch profits tax generally will not apply.

Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding potentially applicable income tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Subject to the discussion below on FATCA, a non-U.S. holder will not be subject to backup withholding with respect to distributions on our common stock we make to the non-U.S. holder, provided the applicable withholding agent does not have actual knowledge or reason to know such holder is a U.S. person and the holder certifies its non-U.S. status, such as by providing a valid IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI, or other applicable certification. However, information returns generally will be filed with the IRS in connection with any distributions (including deemed distributions) made on our common stock to the non-U.S. holder, regardless of whether any tax was actually withheld. Such information returns generally include the amount of any such dividends, the name and address of the recipient, and the amount, if any, of tax withheld. A similar report is sent to the holder to whom any such dividends are paid. Copies of these information returns may also be made available under the provisions of a specific treaty or agreement to the tax authorities of the country in which the non-U.S. holder resides or is established.

Information reporting and backup withholding may apply to the proceeds of a sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock within the United States, and information reporting may (although backup withholding generally will not) apply to the proceeds of a sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock outside the United States conducted through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries, in each case, unless the beneficial owner certifies under penalty of perjury that it is a non-U.S. holder on IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or other applicable form (and the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the beneficial owner is a U.S. person) or such owner otherwise establishes an exemption. Proceeds of a disposition of our common stock conducted through a non-U.S. office of a non-U.S. broker generally will not be subject to backup withholding or information reporting.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against a non-U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Additional Withholding Tax on Payments Made to Foreign Accounts

Withholding taxes may be imposed under Sections 1471 to 1474 of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations (commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or FATCA), on certain types of payments made to non-U.S. financial institutions and certain other non-U.S. entities. Specifically, a 30% withholding tax may be imposed on dividends paid on our common stock, or (subject to the proposed Treasury Regulations discussed below) gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of our common stock paid to a “foreign financial institution” or a “non-financial foreign entity” (each as defined in the Code) (including, in some cases, when such foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity is acting as an intermediary), unless (1) the foreign financial institution undertakes certain diligence and reporting obligations, (2) the non-financial foreign entity either certifies it does not have any “substantial United States owners” (as defined in the Code) or furnishes identifying information regarding each substantial United States owner, or (3) the foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules. If the payee is a foreign financial institution and is subject to the diligence and reporting requirements in (1) above, it must enter into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury requiring, among other things, that it undertake to identify accounts held by certain “specified United States persons” or “United States-owned foreign entities” (each as defined in the Code), annually report certain information about such accounts, and withhold 30% on certain payments to non-compliant foreign financial institutions and certain other account holders. Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules.

The withholding provisions under FATCA generally apply to payments of dividends paid on our common stock. Further, current provisions of the Code and Treasury Regulations treat gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of common stock as subject to FATCA withholding after December 31, 2018. However, recently proposed Treasury Regulations, if finalized in their present form, would eliminate FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds from a sale or other disposition of our common stock. In its preamble to such proposed regulations, the U.S. Treasury Department stated that taxpayers generally may rely on these proposed Treasury Regulations until final Treasury Regulations are issued. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application of FATCA.

EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR SHOULD CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF PURCHASING, HOLDING AND DISPOSING OF OUR COMMON STOCK, INCLUDING THE CONSEQUENCES OF ANY RECENT OR PROPOSED CHANGE IN APPLICABLE LAW.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES OFFERED

Common Stock

The material terms and provisions of our common stock are described under the caption “Description of Share Capital” in this prospectus.

Pre-Funded Warrants

The following summary of certain terms and provisions of the pre-funded warrants that are being offered hereby is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the pre-funded warrants, the form of which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions of the form of the pre-funded warrant for a complete description of the terms and conditions of the pre-funded warrants.

Duration, Exercise Price and Form. Each pre-funded warrant offered hereby will have an initial exercise price per share equal to $0.0001. The pre-funded warrants will be immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time until the pre-funded warrants are exercised in full. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our common stock and the exercise price. The pre-funded warrants will be issued separately from the accompanying common warrants and may be transferred separately immediately thereafter. The pre-funded warrants will be issued in certificated form only.

Exercisability. The pre-funded warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of shares of our common stock purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise as discussed below). Purchasers of the pre-funded warrants in this offering may elect to deliver their exercise notice following the pricing of the offering and prior to the issuance of the pre-funded warrants at closing to have their pre-funded warrants exercised immediately upon issuance and receive shares of common stock underlying the pre-funded warrants upon closing of this offering. A holder (together with its affiliates) may not exercise any portion of the pre-funded warrants to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% of the outstanding common stock immediately after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to us, the holder may increase the amount of ownership of outstanding stock after exercising the holder’s pre-funded warrants up to 9.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the pre-funded warrants. Purchasers of pre-funded warrants in this offering may also elect prior to the issuance of the pre-funded warrants to have the initial exercise limitation set at 9.99% of our outstanding common stock.

Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of a pre-funded warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will either round up to the nearest whole number or pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the exercise price.

Cashless Exercise. If, at the time a holder exercises its pre-funded warrant, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of common stock determined according to a formula set forth in the pre-funded warrants.

Transferability. Subject to applicable laws, a pre-funded warrant may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the pre-funded warrant to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.

Exchange Listing. There is no trading market available for the pre-funded warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system. We do not intend to list the pre-funded warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.

Right as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in the pre-funded warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our common stock, the holders of the pre-funded warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our common stock, including any voting rights, until they exercise their Pre-Funded Warrants.

Fundamental Transaction. In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the pre-funded 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 50% or more of our outstanding common stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% or more of the voting power represented by our outstanding common stock, the holders of the pre-funded warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the pre-funded warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. 

Common Warrants

The following summary of certain terms and provisions of the common warrants that are being offered hereby is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the common warrants, the form of which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions of the form of the common warrants for a complete description of the terms and conditions of the common warrants.

Duration, Exercise Price and Form. Each common warrant offered hereby will have an initial exercise price per share equal to $      . The common warrants will be exercisable on the Warrant Stockholder Approval Date, provided that if the Pricing Conditions are met, the common warrants will be immediately upon issuance. The common warrants will expire on the five-year anniversary of the Warrant Stockholder Approval Date, provided that if the Pricing Conditions are met, the common warrants will expire on the five-year anniversary of the date of issuance. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our common stock and the exercise price. The common warrants will be issued separately from the common stock or pre-funded warrants, as applicable, and will be held separately immediately thereafter. One common warrant, each to purchase one share of our common stock, will be issued for every share of common stock or pre-funded warrant purchased in this offering. The common warrants will be issued in certificated form only.

We intend to promptly, and in no event later than 90 days after the consummation of this offering, seek the Warrant Stockholder Approval for the issuance of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the common warrants but we cannot assure you that the Warrant Stockholder Approval will be obtained, provided, however, that if and only if the Pricing Conditions are met, then we will not seek Warrant Stockholder Approval. We have agreed with the investors in this offering that, if we do not obtain stockholder approval for the issuance of the shares of common stock upon exercise of the common warrants at the first stockholder meeting for such purpose after this offering, we will call a stockholder meeting every 90 days thereafter until the earlier of the date we obtain such approval or the common warrants are no longer outstanding.

Exercisability. The common warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of shares of our common stock purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise as discussed below). A holder (together with its affiliates) may not exercise any portion of the common warrants to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% of the outstanding common stock immediately after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to us, the holder may increase the amount of ownership of outstanding stock after exercising the holder’s common warrant up to 9.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the common warrant. No common warrants exercisable for a fractional share will be issued in this offering.

Cashless Exercise. If, at the time a holder exercises its common warrant, a registration statement registering the issuance of the shares of common stock underlying the common warrant under the Securities Act is not then effective or available and an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is not available for the issuance of such shares, then in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of common stock determined according to a formula set forth in the common warrants.

Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued upon the exercise of the common warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will either round up to the nearest whole number or pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the exercise price.

Transferability. Subject to applicable laws, a common warrant may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the common warrants to us together with the appropriate instrument of transfer.

Exchange Listing. There is no established public trading market for the common warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to list the common warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the common warrants will be limited.

Right as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in the common warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our common stock, the holders of the common warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our common stock, including any voting rights, until they exercise their common warrants.

Fundamental Transaction. In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the form of common 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 more than 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding common stock, the holders of the common warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the common warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the common warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. In addition, in certain circumstances, upon a fundamental transaction, the holder of a common warrant will have the right to require us to repurchase its common warrants at the Black-Scholes value; provided, however, that, if the fundamental transaction is not within our control, including not approved by our board of directors, then the holder will only be entitled to receive the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black-Scholes value of the unexercised portion of common warrant that is being offered and paid to the holders of our common stock in connection with the fundamental transaction. 

Placement Agent Warrants

The following summary of certain terms and provisions of the Placement Agent warrants is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the form of Placement Agent warrant, which has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions set forth in the form of Placement Agent warrant.

We have agreed to issue to the Placement Agent, or its designees, up to 114,754 warrants to purchase up to 114,754 common stock (which represents 7.0% of the aggregate number of common stock issued in this offering and issuable upon the exercise of the warrants and pre-funded warrants issued in this offering) with an exercise price of $3.81 per share (representing 125% of the assumed public offering price per share) and exercisable for five years from the date of the commencement of sales in this offering. The Placement Agent warrants issued in this offering will otherwise have substantially the same terms as the common warrants. The Placement Agent warrants and underlying common stock are registered on the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We have engaged H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC to act as our exclusive Placement Agent to solicit offers to purchase the securities offered pursuant to this prospectus on a reasonable best efforts basis. The engagement agreement does not give rise to any commitment by the Placement Agent to purchase any of our securities, and the Placement Agent will have no authority to bind us by virtue of the engagement agreement. The Placement Agent is not purchasing or selling any of the securities offered by us under this prospectus, nor is it required to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of securities, other than to use its “reasonable best efforts” to arrange for the sale of such securities by us. Therefore, we may not sell all of the securities being offered. The terms of this offering were subject to market conditions and negotiations between us, the Placement Agent and prospective investors. This is a best efforts offering and there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to the closing of this offering. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing this offering, we may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us. The Placement Agent does not guarantee that it will be able to raise new capital in any prospective offering. The Placement Agent may engage sub-agents or selected dealers to assist with the offering.

Investors purchasing securities offered hereby will have the option to execute a securities purchase agreement with us. In addition to rights and remedies available to all purchasers in this offering under federal securities and state law, the purchasers which enter into a securities purchase agreement will also be able to bring claims of breach of contract against us. The ability to pursue a claim for breach of contract is material to larger purchasers in this offering as a means to enforce (i) a covenant to not enter into variable rate financings for a period of one year following the closing of the offering, subject to certain exceptions, and (ii)  a covenant to not enter into any equity financings for 30 days from closing of the offering, subject to certain exceptions. The nature of the representations, warranties and covenants in the securities purchase agreements shall include:

The securities will be offered at a fixed price and are expected to be issued in a single closing. We expect this offering to be completed not later than two business days following the commencement of this offering, which will be the date that we enter into a securities purchase agreement to sell the securities offered hereby. We expect to close the offering on or before , 2025. We will deliver all securities to be issued in connection with this offering delivery versus payment/receipt versus payment upon receipt of investor funds received by us. Accordingly, neither we nor the Placement Agent have made any arrangements to place investor funds in an escrow account or trust account since the Placement Agent will not receive investor funds in connection with the sale of the securities offered hereunder.

We expect to deliver the securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus on or about           , 2025.

Fees and Expenses

The following table shows the per share and total placement agent fees we will pay in connection with the sale of the securities in this offering.

We have agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in this offering and a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds raised in this offering. In addition, we have agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent $25,000 for its non-accountable expenses and up to $100,000 for legal fees and out-of-pocket expenses and for its clearing expenses in the amount of up to $15,950. We estimate the total offering expenses of this offering that will be payable by us, excluding the Placement Agent fees and expenses, will be approximately $540,950.

Placement Agent Warrants

In addition, we have agreed to issue to the Placement Agent, or its designees, up to 114,754 warrants to purchase up to 114,754 common stock (which represents 7.0% of the aggregate number of common stock issued in this offering and issuable upon the exercise of the pre-funded warrants issued in this offering) with an exercise price of $3.81 per share (representing 125% of the assumed public offering price per share) and exercisable for five years from the date of the commencement of sales in this offering. The Placement Agent warrants and underlying common stock are registered on the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. The form of the Placement Agent warrant will be included as an exhibit to this registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

Right of First Refusal

We have granted the Placement Agent a right of first refusal for a period of 12 months following the closing of this offering to act as exclusive financial advisor, sole book-running manager, sole underwriter, sole placement agent or sole agent for each and every future debt financing or refinancing and public or private equity or debt offering by us or any of our successors or subsidiaries.

Tail

We have also agreed to pay the Placement Agent a tail fee equal to the cash and warrant compensation in this offering, if any investor, who was contacted or introduced to us by the Placement Agent during the term of its engagement, provides us with capital in any public or private offering or other financing or capital raising transaction during the 12-month period following expiration or termination of our engagement of the Placement Agent.

Lock-up Agreements

We and our subsidiary have agreed with the Placement Agent to be subject to a lock-up period of 30 days following the date of closing of the offering pursuant to this prospectus. Each of our officers and directors have agreed with the Placement Agent to be subject to a lock-up period of 60 days following the date of closing of the offering pursuant to this prospectus. This means that, during the applicable lock-up period, we and such persons may not offer for sale, contract to sell, sell, distribute, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of our shares of common stock or any securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of common stock, subject to customary exceptions. The Placement Agent may waive the terms of these lock-up agreements in its sole discretion and without notice. In addition, we have agreed to not issue any securities that are subject to a price reset based on the trading prices of our common stock or upon a specified or contingent event in the future, or enter into any agreement to issue securities at a future determined price for a period of one year following the closing date of this offering, subject to certain exceptions. The Placement Agent may waive this prohibition in its sole discretion and without notice.

Regulation M

The Placement Agent may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by it and any profit realized on the resale of the securities sold by it while acting as principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act. As an underwriter, the Placement Agent would be required to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 and Regulation M under the Exchange Act. These rules and regulations may limit the timing of purchases and sales of our securities by the Placement Agent acting as principal. Under these rules and regulations, the Placement Agent (i) may not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with our securities and (ii) may not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities, other than as permitted under the Exchange Act, until it has completed its participation in the distribution.

Indemnification

We have agreed to indemnify the Placement Agent against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments that the Placement Agent may be required to make for these liabilities.

Determination of Offering Price

The actual offering price of the securities we are offering has been negotiated between us and the investors in the offering based on the trading of our common stock prior to the offering, among other things. Other factors considered in determining the public offering price of the securities we are offering include our history and our prospects, the state of the industry in which we operate, our recent operating results, the general condition of the securities markets at the time of this offering, and such other factors as were deemed relevant.

Electronic Offer, Sale and Distribution of Securities

A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on the websites maintained by the Placement Agent, if any, participating in this offering and the Placement Agent may distribute prospectuses electronically. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on these websites is not part of this prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, has not been approved or endorsed by us or the Placement Agent, and should not be relied upon by investors.

Other Relationships

From time to time, the Placement Agent or its affiliates have in the past or may in the future provide in the future, various advisory, investment and commercial banking and other services to us in the ordinary course of business, for which they have received and may continue to receive customary fees and commissions. However, except as disclosed in this prospectus, we have no present arrangements with the Placement Agent for any further services. The Placement Agent also acted as our exclusive placement agent in connection with the July 2025 Private Placement and acts as our exclusive sales agent in connection with our at-the-market offering facility, for which it received compensation.

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

ITEM 13. OTHER EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION

The following table sets forth all costs and expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, payable by us in connection with the sale of the securities being registered. All amounts shown are estimates, except for the SEC registration fee and FINRA fee.

We will pay all of the expenses related to the distribution of the securities being offered under this prospectus. Each of the above amounts (with the exception of the SEC registration fee and FINRA fee) are estimates.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Our Charter and Restated Bylaws, each as amended to date, provide that our company will indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, each person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of our company, or who serves or served any other enterprise or organization at the request of our company. Pursuant to Delaware law, this includes elimination of liability for monetary damages for breach of the directors’ fiduciary duty of care to our company and its stockholders. These provisions do not eliminate the directors’ duty of care and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware Law. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to our company, for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct, for knowing violations of law, for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit, and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under Delaware Law. The provision also does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other laws, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws. 

In addition, Section 145 of the Delaware Law provides that a corporation may indemnify any persons, including officers and directors, who are, or are threatened to be made, party to any threatened, pending or completed legal action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was an officer, director, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided such officer, director, employee or agent acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may indemnify officers or directors in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him or her against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) that he or she actually and reasonably incurred.

Our Charter and Bylaws provide for indemnification of directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware Law.
