PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary highlights the more detailed information contained elsewhere in this prospectus or incorporated by reference herein and does not contain all of the information that you should consider before deciding to invest in shares of common stock.

Our Company

We are a Nevada corporation based in Houston, Texas. We are currently primarily engaged in the acquisition, development and sale of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids from various known productive geological formations in Kansas, Louisiana and Texas, and hold interests in non-producing wells in Mississippi.

With the acquisition of a majority interest in Viking Energy Group, Inc. on December 23, 2020 and January 8, 2021, our business plan is to acquire a majority interest in assets or entities in the energy sector, including engaging in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas properties, both individually and through collaborative partnerships with other companies in this field of endeavor.

RISK FACTORS

Our ability to utilize net operating loss carryforwards to reduce future taxable income could be limited.

As of December 31, 2021, we had estimated net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $58.5 million, which will begin to expire, if not previously used, beginning in the 2028 taxable year. Our ability to utilize our NOL carryforwards would be limited under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), if we experience an “ownership change,” which generally will occur if there is a cumulative increase of more than 50 percentage points in the ownership of our stock by one or more “5% shareholders” at any time during a three-year period. In the event of an ownership change, Section 382 imposes an annual limitation on our NOL carryforwards that can be used to offset future taxable income, which limitation generally is equal to (a) the fair market value of our equity multiplied by (b) the long-term tax-exempt rate in effect for the month in which the ownership change occurs. We experienced an ownership change during the taxable year ended March 31, 2017, which could result in a loss of a significant portion of our pre-change NOL carryforwards. Future issuances, sales, or exchanges of our stock could trigger another ownership change, which could further limit our ability to utilize our NOL carryforwards.

This prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference herein, contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

We caution that the risks and uncertainties identified by us may not be all of the factors that are important to investors. Furthermore, the forward-looking statements included in this prospectus or in the documents incorporated by reference herein are made only as of the date hereof or the dates of such documents, respectively. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Table of Contents

In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These 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 our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock by the selling stockholders from time to time pursuant to this prospectus. If any shares of common stock are sold, the selling stockholders will pay any brokerage commissions or similar charges incurred for the sale of such shares. We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of common stock covered by this prospectus, including all registration and filing fees and fees and expenses of our counsel and accountants.

If all Warrants are exercised and shares of Series G Preferred Stock are converted, we will receive approximately $1.1 billion of proceeds. We currently intend to use these proceeds, if any, for acquisitions, working capital and other general corporate purposes.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have not declared or paid cash dividends or made distributions in the past. We do not anticipate that we will pay cash dividends or make distributions in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain and reinvest future earnings to finance operations. We may however declare and pay dividends in shares of our common stock in the future (similar to how we have in the past).

Table of Contents

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth information as of August 11, 2022 regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock, assuming the conversion of our Class C common stock, by:

	·	each person or group who beneficially owns more than 5% of our outstanding shares of common stock;

	·	each of our executive officers;

	·	each of our directors; and

	·	all of our executive officers and directors as a group.

Beneficial ownership for the purposes of the following table is determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These rules generally provide that a person is the beneficial owner of securities if such person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting of securities, or to dispose or direct the disposition of securities or has the right to acquire such powers within 60 days. For purposes of calculating each person’s percentage ownership, common stock issuable pursuant to options, warrants or other securities exercisable within 60 days are included as outstanding and beneficially owned for that person or group, but are not deemed outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as disclosed in the footnotes to this table and subject to applicable community property laws, we believe that each beneficial owner identified in the table possesses sole voting and investment power over all common stock shown as beneficially owned by the beneficial owner.

Percentage ownership of our common stock in the table is based on 545,750,593 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of August 11, 2022, assuming the conversion of all shares of Series C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of August 11, 2022, subject to a beneficial ownership limitation preventing conversion into our common stock if the holder would be deemed to beneficially own more than 9.99% of our common stock. This table is based on information supplied by officers, directors and selling stockholders and by Schedules 13D and Schedules 13G, if any, filed with the SEC. Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each of the individuals and entities named below is c/o Camber Energy, Inc., 15915 Katy Freeway, Suite 450, Houston, Texas 77094.

To our knowledge, except as indicated in the footnotes to this table and pursuant to applicable community property laws, the persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to their common stock. Pursuant to Rule 13d-4 under the Exchange Act, the statements concerning voting and dispositive power concerning the common stock included in the footnotes to this table shall not be construed as admissions that such persons are the beneficial owners of such common stock.

(1) 5330 Yacht Haven Grande, Suite 206, St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, 00802. As of August 11, 2022, the holder holds 415 shares of Series C Preferred Stock; provided that the Company may not issue shares which, when aggregated with all other shares of common stock then deemed beneficially owned by the holder, would result in the reporting person holding at any one time more than 9.99% of all common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuance. The Company believes that John Burke has voting and dispositive control over the securities held by the shareholder. Antilles and its affiliate Discover have contractually agreed not to vote any shares except as requested by the Company’s board of directors.

Table of Contents

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The total number of shares of all classes of stock that we have authority to issue is 1,010,000,000, consisting of 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of August 11, 2022, we had (i) 491,230,109 shares of common stock outstanding, (ii) 5,200 designated shares of Series C Preferred Stock, 415 of which were outstanding and (iii) 25,000 designated shares of Series G Preferred Stock, 5,272 of which were outstanding.

Common Stock

Holders of our common stock: (i) are entitled to share ratably in all of our assets available for distribution upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs; (ii) do not have preemptive, subscription or conversion rights, nor are there any redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable thereto; and (iii) are entitled to one vote per share on all matters on which stockholders may vote at all stockholder meetings. Each stockholder is entitled to receive the dividends as may be declared by our directors out of funds legally available for dividends. Our directors are not obligated to declare a dividend. Any future dividends will be subject to the discretion of our directors and will depend upon, among other things, future earnings, the operating and financial condition of our Company, our capital requirements, general business conditions and other pertinent factors.

The presence of the persons entitled to vote 33% of the outstanding voting shares on a matter before the stockholders shall constitute the quorum necessary for the consideration of the matter at a stockholders meeting.

The vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast on the matter at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall constitute an act of the stockholders, except for the election of directors, who shall be appointed by a plurality of the shares entitled to vote at a meeting at which a quorum is present. The common stock does not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of a majority of the common stock voting for election of directors can elect 100% of our directors if they choose to do so.

Preferred Stock

Subject to the terms contained in any designation of a series of preferred stock, our board of directors is expressly authorized, at any time and from time to time, to fix, by resolution or resolutions, the following provisions for shares of any class or classes of preferred stock:

	1.	The designation of such class or series, the number of shares to constitute such class or series which may be increased (but not below the number of shares of that class or series then outstanding) by a resolution of our board of directors;
	2.	Whether the shares of such class or series shall have voting rights, in addition to any voting rights provided by law, and if so, the terms of such voting rights;
	3.	The dividends, if any, payable on such class or series, whether any such dividends shall be cumulative, and, if so, from what dates, the conditions and dates upon which such dividends shall be payable, and the preference or relation which such dividends shall bear to the dividends payable on any share of stock of any other class or any other shares of the same class;
	4.	Whether the shares of such class or series shall be subject to redemption by the Company, and, if so, the times, prices and other conditions of such redemption or a formula to determine the times, prices and such other conditions;
	5.	The amount or amounts payable upon shares of such series upon, and the rights of the holders of such class or series in, the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or upon any distribution of the assets, of the Company;
	6.	Whether the shares of such class or series shall be subject to the operation of a retirement or sinking fund, and, if so, the extent to and manner in which any such retirement or sinking fund shall be applied to the purchase or redemption of the shares of such class or series for retirement or other corporate purposes and the terms and provisions relative to the operation thereof;

Table of Contents

	7.	Whether the shares of such class or series shall be convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of stock of any other class or any other series of the same class or any other securities and, if so, the price or prices or the rate or rates of conversion or exchange and the method, if any, of adjusting the same, and any other terms and conditions of conversion or exchanges;
	8.	The limitations and restrictions, if any, to be effective while any shares of such class or series are outstanding upon the payment of dividends or the making of other distributions on, and upon the purchase, redemption or other acquisition by the Company of the common stock or shares of stock of any other class or any other series of the same class;
	9.	The conditions or restrictions, if any, upon the creation of indebtedness of the Company or upon the issuance of any additional stock, including additional shares of such class or series or of any other series of the same class or of any other class;

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

On August 31, 2020, our board of directors approved the designation of 28,092 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), which were designated with the Secretary of State of Nevada on August 31, 2020 to have substantially similar rights as the Series C Preferred Stock of Viking (as amended), as adjusted for the exchange ratio set out in the merger agreement at that time, which was subsequently terminated as noted below.

On December 23, 2020, the Company entered into (i) a termination agreement with Viking terminating the Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated August 31, 2020, as amended to date.

On February 15, 2021, the Company entered into a new Agreement and Plan of Merger with Viking. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger with Viking, upon closing of the Merger, each one (1) share of Viking Series C Preferred Stock (“Viking Preferred Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be converted into the right to receive one (1) share of the to be designated Series A Preferred Stock of Camber (the “New Camber Preferred”).

Each share of Camber Series A Preferred Stock will be convertible into 890 shares of common stock of Camber subject to a 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation, will be treated equally with the Company’s common shareholders with respect to dividends and liquidation, and will have no right to vote on any matters, questions or proceedings of Camber except: (a) on a proposal to increase or reduce Camber’s share capital; (b) on a resolution to approve the terms of a buy-back agreement; (c) on a proposal to wind up Camber; (d) on a proposal for the disposal of all or substantially all of Camber’s property, business and undertaking; (f) during the winding-up of Camber; or (g) with respect to a proposed merger or consolidation in which Camber is a party or a subsidiary of Camber is a party.

As of August 11, 2022, the Company had no Series A Preferred Stock issued or outstanding.

Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative dividends in the amount of 24.95% per annum (adjustable up to 34.95% if a trigger event, as described in the designation of the Series C Preferred Stock occurs), payable upon redemption, conversion, or maturity, and when, as and if declared by our board of directors in its discretion, provided that upon any redemption, conversion, or maturity, seven years of dividends are due and payable on such redeemed, converted or matured stock. The Series C Preferred Stock ranks senior to the common stock. The Series C Preferred Stock has no right to vote on any matters, questions or proceedings of the Company including, without limitation, the election of directors except: (a) during a period where a dividend (or part of a dividend) is in arrears; (b) on a proposal to reduce the Company’s share capital; (c) on a resolution to approve the terms of a buy-back agreement; (d) on a proposal to wind up the Company; (e) on a proposal for the disposal of all or substantially all of the Company’s property, business and undertakings; and (f) during the winding-up of the Company.

The Series C Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of common stock (“Conversion Shares”) at any time at the option of the holder, or at our option if certain equity conditions (as defined in the certificate of designation for the Series C Preferred Stock), are met. Upon conversion, we will pay the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock being converted through the issuance of common shares, in an amount equal to the dividends that such shares would have otherwise earned if they had been held through the maturity date (i.e., seven years), and issue to the holders such number of shares of common stock equal to $10,000 per share of Series C Preferred Stock (the “Face Value”) multiplied by the number of such shares of Series C Preferred Stock divided by the applicable Conversion Price of $3.25 per share adjusted for any forward or reverse splits.

The conversion premium under the Series C Preferred Stock, which equals the Face Value multiplied by the product of (i) the applicable dividend rate and (ii) the number of whole years between the date of issuance and the Dividend Maturity Date (as hereinafter defined), is payable and the dividend rate under the Series C Preferred Stock is adjustable. Specifically, the conversion rate of such premiums and dividends equals 95% of the average of the lowest 5 individual daily volume weighted average prices during the Measuring Period, not to exceed 100% of the lowest sales prices on the last day of the Measuring Period, less $0.05 per share of common stock, unless a trigger event has occurred, in which case the conversion rate equals 85% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price during the Measuring Period, less $0.10 per share of common stock not to exceed 85% of the lowest sales prices on the last day of such the Measuring Period, less $0.10 per share. The “Measuring Period” is the period beginning, if no trigger event has occurred, 30 trading days, and if a trigger event has occurred, 60 trading days, before the applicable notice has been provided regarding the exercise or conversion of the applicable security, and ending, if no trigger event has occurred, 30 trading days, and if a trigger event has occurred, 60 trading days, after the applicable number of shares stated in the initial exercise/conversion notice have actually been received into the holder’s designated brokerage account in electronic form and fully cleared for trading. Trigger events are described in the designation of the Series C Preferred Stock, but include items which would typically be events of default under a debt security, including filing of reports late with the SEC.

The Series C Preferred Stock has a maturity date that is seven years after the date of issuance (the “Dividend Maturity Date”) and, if the Series C Preferred Stock has not been wholly converted into shares of common stock prior to such date, all remaining outstanding Series C Preferred Stock will automatically be converted in to shares of common stock, to the extent the Company has sufficient authorized but unissued shares of common stock available for issuance upon conversion. Notwithstanding any other provision of this designation, available authorized and unissued shares of common stock will be a limit and cap on the maximum number of common shares that could be potentially issuable with respect to all conversions and other events that are not solely within the control of the Company. The Company will at all times use its best efforts to authorize sufficient shares. The number of shares required to settle the excess obligation is fixed on the date that net share settlement occurs. The Dividend Maturity Date will be indefinitely extended and suspended until sufficient authorized and unissued shares become available. 100% of the Face Value, plus an amount equal to any accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, automatically becomes payable in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up by us.

We may not issue any preferred stock that is pari passu or senior to the Series C Preferred Stock with respect to any rights for a period of one year after the earlier of such date (i) a registration statement is effective and available for the resale of all shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock, or (ii) Rule 144 under the Securities Act is available for the immediate unrestricted resale of all shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock.

Table of Contents

The Series C Preferred Stock is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation, which prevents any holder of the Series C Preferred Stock from converting such Series C Preferred Stock into common stock, if upon such conversion, the holder would beneficially own greater than 9.99% of our outstanding common stock.

Pursuant to the Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation, which was filed as required by the October 2021 Agreements, holders of the Series C Preferred Stock are permitted to vote together with holders of common stock on all matters other than election of directors and shareholder proposals (including proposals initiated by any holders of Preferred Shares), on an as-if converted basis, subject to the beneficial ownership limitation in the Certificate of Designation for the Series C Preferred Stock, even if there are insufficient shares of authorized common stock to fully convert the Series C Preferred Stock. Also pursuant to the October 2021 Agreements, due to the occurrence of a Trigger Event the Company no longer has the right to conduct an early redemption of the Series C Preferred Stock as provided for in the Designation.

The following tables present a range of estimates of the number of shares potentially issuable to settle future conversions of the Series C Preferred Stock outstanding at August 11, 2022, including the conversion premiums, reflecting consideration of all provisions that pertain to the computation of settlements as follows:

Series G Convertible Preferred Stock

On or about December 30, 2021, the Company filed with the State of Nevada a Certificate of Designations of Preferences, Powers, Rights and Limitations of Series G Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (the “COD”).

Pursuant to the COD, the Series G Preferred Stock, each of which having a face value of $10,000 per share, may be converted into shares of common stock at any time at the option of the holder at a price per share of common stock equal to one cent above the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the issuance of such shares of Series G Preferred Stock, or as otherwise specified in the Stock Purchase Agreement, subject to adjustment as otherwise provided in the COD. Upon conversion, the Company will pay the holders of the Series G Preferred Stock being converted a conversion premium equal to the amount of dividends that such shares would have otherwise earned if they had been held through the maturity date.

The Series G Preferred Stock, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, rank: (a) senior to the Company’s common stock; (b) junior to the Series C Preferred Stock, (c) senior to the Series E Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Series F Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, as such may be designated as of the date of this Designation, or which may be designated by the Company after the date of this Designation; (d) senior, pari passu or junior with respect to any other series of Preferred Stock, as set forth in the Certificate of Designations of Preferences, Powers, Rights and Limitations with respect to such Preferred Stock; and (e) junior to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company.

Except as prohibited by applicable law or as set forth herein, the holders of shares of Series G Preferred Stock will have the right to vote together with holders of common stock and Series C Preferred on all matters other than: (i) the election of directors; (ii) and any shareholder proposals, including proposals initiated by any holder of shares of Series G Preferred Stock, in each instance on an as-converted basis, subject to the beneficial ownership limitation in the COD even if there are insufficient shares of authorized common stock to fully convert the shares of Series G Preferred Stock into common stock.

Commencing on the date of the issuance of any such shares of Series G Preferred Stock, each outstanding share of Series G Preferred Stock will accrue cumulative dividends at a rate equal to 10.0% per annum, subject to adjustment as provided in the COD (to a maximum of 30% per annum), of the Face Value. Dividends will be payable with respect to any shares of Series G Preferred Stock upon any of the following: (a) upon redemption of such shares in accordance with the COD; (b) upon conversion of such shares in accordance with the COD; and (c) when, as and if otherwise declared by the board of directors of the company.

Dividends, as well as any applicable conversion premium payable hereunder, will be paid in shares of common stock valued at (i) if there is no Material Adverse Change (“MAC”) as at the date of payment or issuance of common shares for the conversion premium, as applicable, (A) 95.0% of the average of the 5 lowest individual daily volume weighted average prices of the common stock on the Trading Market during the applicable measurement period for the calculation of the conversion premiums (the “Measurement Period”), which may be non-consecutive, less $0.05 per share of common stock, not to exceed (B) 100% of the lowest sales price on the last day of such Measurement Period less $0.05 per share of common stock, or (ii) during the time that any MAC is ongoing, (A) 85.0% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price during any Measurement Period for any conversion by holder, less $0.10 per share of common stock, not to exceed (B) 85.0% of the lowest sales price on the last day of any Measurement Period, less $0.10 per share of common stock.

On the Dividend Maturity Date, the Company may redeem any or all shares of Series G Preferred Stock by paying holder, in registered or unregistered shares of common stock valued at an amount per share equal to 100% of the liquidation value for the shares redeemed, and the Company will use its best efforts to register such shares.

Sales of Unregistered Securities

There have been no sales of unregistered securities during the year ended December 31, 2021 or the quarter ended March 31, 2022 that have not previously been disclosed in a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or in a Current Report on Form 8-K, except as set forth below:

The Company issued to one of its preferred stockholders a total of 7,568,617 shares of common stock pursuant to the stockholder’s conversion of Series C Preferred Stock into common stock. The sales and issuances of the securities described above have been determined to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Sections 3(a)(9) and 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder and Regulation S promulgated thereunder, as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering. The preferred stockholder (Discover) has represented that it is an accredited investor, as that term is defined in Regulation D, it is not a U.S. Person, and that it is acquiring the securities for its own account.

The preferred convertible shares Discover exchanged for common stock in 2021 were issued and fully paid for on or prior to December 4, 2018. With respect to its conversions prior to May 13, 2021, Discover submitted legal opinions from its outside counsel to our transfer agent opining that the shares could be resold pursuant to Rule 144, and with respect to its conversions after May 13, 2021, Discover submitted legal opinions opining that the shares could be resold pursuant to Section 4(a)(1) of the Securities Act of 1933.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES FOR NON-U.S. HOLDERS OF COMMON STOCK

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 ownership and disposition of our common stock acquired in this offering. This discussion is limited to Non-U.S. Holders who hold our common stock as a “capital asset” (generally, property held for investment purposes). This discussion is based on the Code, administrative pronouncements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), judicial decisions and final, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations, changes to any of which subsequent to the date of this prospectus may affect the tax consequences described herein, possibly with retroactive effect. We have not sought a ruling from the IRS regarding the matters discussed below, and there can be no assurance that the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position regarding such matters.

This discussion does not describe all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to a Non-U.S. Holder in light of such Non-U.S. Holder’s particular circumstances or to Non-U.S. Holders who are subject to special rules under U.S. federal income tax law (such as brokers or dealers in securities; traders in securities who have elected the mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities; banks and other financial institutions; former citizens or residents of the United States; partnerships and other pass-through entities or arrangements; tax-exempt organizations or pension plans; persons holding our common stock as part of a straddle, constructive sale, conversion transaction, or other integrated transaction; and “qualified foreign pension funds” as defined in Section 897(l)(2) of the Code and entities all of the interests of which are held by qualified foreign pension funds). Moreover, this discussion does not address alternative minimum taxes, the Medicare tax on net investment income, other U.S. federal taxes (such as U.S. federal estate and gift taxes), or any state, local or non-U.S. taxes.

If an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income taxes owns our common stock, the tax treatment of 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 partners in such partnerships should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences to them.

THIS DISCUSSION IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT TAX ADVICE. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL TAX LAWS TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AS WELL AS ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE 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.

For purposes of this discussion, a “Non-U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of our common stock that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is a nonresident alien individual, a foreign corporation, a foreign estate, or a foreign trust.

Table of Contents

Distributions

As discussed under “Dividend Policy” above, we do not currently expect to make distributions on our common stock. In the event that we do make distributions of cash or other property, those distributions generally 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. To the extent those distributions exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, they will constitute a return of capital, which will first reduce a Non-U.S. Holder’s basis in our common stock, but not below zero. Generally, a distribution that constitutes a return of capital will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 15% if the Non-U.S. Holder’s common stock constitutes a USRPI (see the discussion below under “—Gain on Disposition of Our Common Stock”). However, we or our withholding agent may elect to withhold at a rate of up to 30% on the entire amount of the distribution, even if the Non-U.S. Holder’s common stock does not constitute a USRPI. Because a Non-U.S. Holder would not have any U.S. federal income tax liability with respect to a return of capital distribution, a Non-U.S. Holder would be entitled to request a refund of any U.S. federal income tax that is withheld from a return of capital distribution (generally by timely filing a U.S. federal income tax return for the taxable year in which the tax was withheld). To the extent a distribution exceeds a Non-U.S. Holder’s basis in our common stock, such excess will be treated as gain from the sale of our common stock, as described below under “—Gain on Disposition of Our Common Stock.”

Dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder generally will be subject to withholding tax at a 30% rate or a reduced rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty. In order to obtain a reduced rate of withholding, a Non-U.S. Holder will be required to provide a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable documentation) certifying such Non-U.S. Holder’s entitlement to benefits under a treaty.

If dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder are effectively connected with such Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by such Non-U.S. Holder in the United States), such Non-U.S. Holder will generally be taxed on the dividends on a net basis at the rates applicable to a U.S. person. In this case, such Non-U.S. Holder will be exempt from the withholding tax discussed in the preceding paragraph, although such Non-U.S. Holder will be required to provide a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI in order to claim an exemption from withholding. A Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or a lower treaty rate) on such effectively connected dividends, as adjusted for certain items.

Gain on Disposition of Our Common Stock

Subject to the discussions below under “—Information Reporting and Backup Withholding” and “—FATCA,” a Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on gain realized on a sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock unless:

	·	the gain is effectively connected with such Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by such Non-U.S. Holder in the United States);

	·	such Non-U.S. Holder is a nonresident alien individual present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of the disposition and certain other requirements are met; or

	·	our common stock constitutes a “United States real property interest” (a “USRPI”) because we are or have been a “United States real property holding corporation” (a “USRPHC”) at any time within the five-year period preceding the disposition or such non-U.S. Holder’s holding period, whichever period is shorter.

Table of Contents

Gain described in the first bullet point above generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net basis at the rates applicable to a U.S. person. A Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or a lower treaty rate) on such effectively connected gain, as adjusted for certain items.

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 gain realized upon the sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock, which generally may be offset by U.S. source capital losses of such Non-U.S. Holder.

With respect to the third bullet point above, due to the nature of our assets and operations, we believe we are not a USRPHC and, as a result, our common stock generally does not constitute a USRPI. However, if it is determined that we are a USRPHC, or if we become a USRPHC in the future, then our common stock generally would constitute a USRPI. A Non-U.S. Holder generally is subject to a 15% withholding tax on the amount realized from a sale or other taxable disposition of a USRPI, which is required to be collected from any sale or disposition proceeds. In addition, such a Non-U.S. Holder is subject to U.S. federal income tax (at the rates applicable to a U.S. person) in respect of any gain on its sale or disposition of a USRPI and is required to file a U.S. federal income tax return to report such gain and pay any U.S. federal income tax liability that is not satisfied by withholding. However, if we were a USRPHC and our common stock were regularly traded on an established securities market, then a Non-U.S. Holder would not be subject to the 15% withholding tax on the sale or disposition of our common stock, even if our common stock was a USRPI. Moreover, if our common stock continues to be regularly traded on an established securities market and a Non-U.S. Holder actually or constructively owns and owned, at all times within the five-year period ending on the date of the disposition or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period, whichever is shorter, then such Non-U.S. Holder may treat our common units as not constituting a USRPI, in which case such Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain realized upon the sale or disposition of our common stock (in addition to not being subject to the 15% withholding tax described above) or U.S. federal income tax return filing requirements.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Information returns are required to be filed with the IRS in connection with payments of dividends on our common stock. Unless you comply with certification procedures to establish that you are not a U.S. person, information returns may also be filed with the IRS in connection with the proceeds from a sale or other disposition of our common stock. You may be subject to backup withholding on payments on our common stock or on the proceeds from a sale or other disposition of our common stock unless you comply with certification procedures to establish that you are not a U.S. person or otherwise establish an exemption. Your provision of a properly executed applicable IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, or W-8ECI certifying your non-U.S. status will permit you to avoid backup withholding. Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules are not additional taxes and may be refunded or credited against your U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

FATCA

Provisions of the Code commonly referred to as “FATCA” require withholding of 30% on payments of dividends on our common stock to “foreign financial institutions” or “non-financial foreign entities” (each as defined in the Code) unless various U.S. information reporting and due diligence requirements (generally relating to ownership by U.S. persons of interests in or accounts with those entities) have been satisfied, or an exemption applies. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify these requirements. Proposed regulations provide that FATCA withholding will not apply to gross proceeds from the disposition of shares of our common stock, as otherwise would have been the case after December 31, 2018, and the preamble to the proposed regulations state that taxpayers may rely on them until final regulations are issued. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisers regarding the effects of FATCA on their investment in our common stock.

These sales or dispositions may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

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

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

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

Table of Contents

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

	·	privately negotiated transactions;

	·	settlement of short sales;

	·	in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;

	·	through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

	·	a combination of any such methods of sale; or

	·	any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemptions from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

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

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

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

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

Selling stockholders will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus or any other exemptions from registration under the Securities Act. The selling stockholders have advised us that there is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale securities by the selling stockholders.

Table of Contents

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the date on which all securities are sold or the date on which the shares cease to be registrable securities under the registration rights agreement. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the selling stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of securities of the common stock by the selling stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

As authorized by Section 78.7502 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”), we may indemnify our officers and directors against expenses reasonably incurred by such persons in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, involving such persons in their capacities as an officer, director, employee, or agent of the company and directors, so long as such person (1) is not liable pursuant to Section 78.138 of the Nevada Revised Statutes or (2) acted in good faith and in a manner which they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to our best interests, or that, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he or she had reasonable cause to believe that the conduct was unlawful. If such legal proceeding, however, is a threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in our right to procure a judgment in our favor, the director or officer may not be indemnified in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which he is adjudged to be liable to the company or for amounts paid in settlement to the company, unless and only to the extent a court determines the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

Section 78.751 of the NRS generally provides that a corporation must indemnify any person against expenses reasonably incurred by such person in connection with defending any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including, without limitation, an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or any claim, issue or matter therein, to the extent that the person is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of such action, suit or proceeding.

The discretionary and mandatory indemnification provided for and authorized in in Sections 78.751 and 78.7502 of the NRS are in addition to any other right to indemnification that a person may be entitled under a corporation’s articles of incorporation, its bylaws, under any agreement made by the corporation, or otherwise; except that indemnification may not be made to or on behalf of any director or officer adjudged to be liable for intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law, and such misconduct, fraud or violation was material to the cause of action.

Under Nevada law, corporations may also purchase and maintain insurance or make other financial arrangements on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer (or is serving at our request as a director or officer of another corporation) for any liability asserted against such person and any expenses incurred by him in his capacity as a director or officer. These financial arrangements may include trust funds, self-insurance programs and guaranties. We maintain standard policies of insurance under which coverage is provided (a) to our directors and officers against loss rising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act, and (b) to us with respect to payments which may be made by us to such officers and directors pursuant to the above indemnification provision or otherwise as a matter of law.

II-1

Table of Contents

Our amended articles of incorporation provide that our directors and officers shall not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for damages for breach of such directors’ or officers’ fiduciary duty, but do not eliminate liability for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law, or the payment of dividends in violation of the Nevada Revised Statutes. The effect of this provision of our articles of incorporation, as amended, is to eliminate our rights and those of our stockholders (through stockholders’ derivative suits on behalf of the Company) to recover damages against a director or officer for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior), except under certain situations described above or defined by statute.

Our bylaws, as amended, provide that we shall indemnify every (i) present or former director, advisory director or officer of us, (ii) any person who while serving in any of the capacities referred to in clause (i) served at our request as a director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, and (iii) any person nominated or designated by (or pursuant to authority granted by) the Board of Directors or any committee thereof to serve in any of the capacities referred to in clauses (i) or (ii) (each, an “Indemnitee”). Our bylaws provide that we shall indemnify each Indemnitee against all judgments, penalties (including excise and similar taxes), fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses actually incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with any proceeding in which he was, is or is threatened to be named as a defendant or respondent, or in which he was or is a witness without being named a defendant or respondent, by reason, in whole or in part, of his serving or having served, or having been nominated or designated to serve, if it is determined that the Indemnitee (a) conducted himself in good faith, (b) reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in his official capacity, that his conduct was in our best interests and, in all other cases, that his conduct was at least not opposed to our best interests, and (c) in the case of any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful; provided, however, that in the event that an Indemnitee is found liable to us or is found liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received by the Indemnitee, the indemnification (i) is limited to reasonable expenses actually incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the proceeding and (ii) shall not be made in respect of any proceeding in which the Indemnitee shall have been found liable for willful or intentional misconduct in the performance of his duty to us. We believe that the indemnification provisions in our articles of incorporation, as amended, and bylaws, as amended, are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

Our bylaws provide that no indemnification shall be made in respect to any proceeding in which such Indemnitee has been (i) found liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received by him, whether or not the benefit resulted from an action taken in the Indemnitee’s official capacity, or (ii) found liable to us. The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or on a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, is not of itself determinative that the Indemnitee did not meet the requirements set forth in clauses (a), (b) or (c) in the preceding paragraph. An Indemnitee shall be deemed to have been found liable in respect of any claim, issue or matter only after the Indemnitee shall have been so adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom. Reasonable expenses shall, include, without limitation, all court costs and all fees and disbursements of attorneys’ fees for the Indemnitee. The indemnification provided shall be applicable whether or not negligence or gross negligence of the Indemnitee is alleged or proven.

Neither our bylaws nor our articles of incorporation include any specific indemnification provisions for our officers or directors against liability under the Securities Act. Additionally, insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 17. Undertakings

The undersigned hereby undertakes:

(a) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(1) to include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(2) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(3) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

II-5

Table of Contents

(b) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(d) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

(e) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(f) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions referenced in Item 14 of this registration statement, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered hereunder, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
