About Incannex Healthcare Inc.
We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical development company dedicated to developing combination medicines that target the underlying biological pathways associated with chronic conditions, including obstructive sleep apnea (“OSA”), rheumatoid arthritis and generalized anxiety disorder. We are advancing novel oral fix-dosed treatments and therapeutic regimens based on evidence-based innovation. Our lead Phase 2/3 and Phase 2 clinical programs include IHL-42X for the treatment of OSA; IHL-675A for the treatment of inflammatory conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, and PSX-001, our oral synthetic psilocybin treatment, in combination with psychotherapy, for the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder. Our programs target disorders that have limited, inadequate, or no approved pharmaceutical treatment options.
To date, we have not generated any revenue and do not expect to generate significant revenue from the sale of our drug candidates in development in the foreseeable future. If our development efforts for our drug candidates are successful and result in regulatory approval, we may generate revenue in the future from these sales. We cannot predict if, when, or to what extent we will generate revenue from the commercialization and sale of our drug candidates. We may never succeed in obtaining regulatory approval for any of our drug candidates.
2025 Private Placement
On March 7, 2025, we entered into a private placement (the “Private Placement”) pursuant to securities purchase agreements (“Purchase Agreements”) with the selling stockholders for the purchase and sale of 9,687,045 shares (the “PIPE Shares”) of Common Stock for a purchase price of $1.08 per share of Common Stock (and, in lieu thereof, Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to 1,887,045 shares (the “Pre-Funded Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock) at a price of $1.0799 per Pre-Funded Warrant and Series A Warrants to purchase up to 11,574,090 shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment as described therein (the “Series A Warrant Shares” and together with the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, the “Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $2.16 per share. The PIPE Shares, the Series A Warrants, Series A Warrant Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares are collectively referred to as the “Securities.”
The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable (in cash or by cashless exercise) for shares of Common Stock for a nominal exercise price of $0.0001 per Pre-Funded Warrant Share, are immediately exercisable upon issuance and expire when exercised in full.
The Series A Warrants are exercisable following stockholder approval and expire two and one-half (2.5) years after the date of stockholder approval. If a registration statement registering the resale of the shares of common stock underlying the Series A Warrants is not effective or available following the date of stockholder approval, the holder may, in its sole discretion, elect to exercise the Series A Warrants through a cashless exercise. The Series A Warrants also provide for alternative cashless exercise following stockholder approval (even if a registration statement registering the issuance or resale of shares of common stock underlying the Series A Warrant is effective) where the holder of a Series A Warrant has the right to receive an aggregate number of shares equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of common stock that would be issuable upon a cash exercise of the Series A Warrant multiplied by (y) three (3.0). This alternative cashless exercise amount is subject to proportional adjustments for stock splits, dividends, reclassifications and similar adjustments.
1
The exercise price of the Series A Warrants will be reduced (but in no event increased) to the greater of (I) the floor price (as described below) and (II) the lowest dollar-volume-weighted-average-price during the period beginning two full trading days prior to the Release Date and ending on the 10th trading day after the Release Date (as described below). Upon any such resulting adjustment of the exercise price in the Series A Warrants, the number of Series A Warrant Shares issuable under the Series A Warrants will be increased such that the aggregate exercise price of a Series A Warrants (adjusted for any exercises by a holder prior to this adjustment) will remain unchanged following such adjustment. “Release Date” means the later of (x) the earlier of (i) the effective date of a registration statement registering all of the securities sold in the Private Placement or (ii) the date that the securities sold in the Private Placement can be sold, assigned or transferred without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act and (y) the date that the Company obtains the stockholder approval. If, for any reason, less than all of the securities sold pursuant to the Purchase Agreement have been registered for resale prior to the expiration of the 90-day period immediately following the trading day during which the Company files a Current Report on Form 8-K giving public notice of stockholder approval, then a Series A Warrant holder, with respect to itself only, will have the right in its sole and absolute discretion, to deem that the Release Date has occurred with respect to such portion of a Series A Warrant as the holder determines and an adjustment to the exercise price and shares issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrant will occur for that portion of the Series A Warrant. Any portion of a Series A Warrant not previously subject to an adjustment as a result of an exercise by the Holder in accordance with the previous sentence, will remain subject to a future adjustment in in connection with a Release Date.
In addition, if at any time during the term of the Series A Warrants there occurs any share split, reverse share split, share dividend, share combination recapitalization or other similar transaction involving the shares of our common stock (each, a “Share Combination Event”, and such date on which the Share Combination Event is effected, the “Share Combination Event Date”) and the lowest dollar volume-weighted average price per share of our common stock during the period commencing on the trading day immediately following the applicable Share Combination Event Date and ending on the fifth trading day immediately following the applicable Share Combination Event Date (the “Event Market Price”) (provided if the Share Combination Event is effective prior to the opening of trading on the market on which shares of our common stock are then traded, then, commencing on the Share Combination Event Date and ending on the fourth trading day immediately following the applicable Share Combination Event Date (such period, the “Share Combination Adjustment Period”)) is less than the exercise price then in effect (after giving effect to the adjustment for such event), then, at the close of trading on the last day of the Share Combination Adjustment Period, the exercise price then in effect on such fifth trading day will be reduced (but in no event increased) to the Event Market Price and the number of Series A Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of a Series A Warrant (such resulting number, the “Share Combination Issuable Shares”) will be increased such that the aggregate exercise price, after taking into account the decrease in the exercise price, will be equal to the aggregate exercise price on the date of issuance of the Series A Warrants for the remaining Series A Warrant Shares then issuable pursuant to the Series A Warrant; provided, however, that in no event will the Event Market Price be lower than the Floor Price; and provided further that notwithstanding the foregoing, if one or more Share Combination Events occurred prior to the Warrant Stockholder Approval being obtained and the reduction of the exercise price was limited by clause (i) of the definition of Floor Price, once the Warrant Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Exercise Price will automatically be reduced to equal the greater of (x) the lowest Event Market Price with respect to any Share Combination Event that occurred prior to the Warrant Stockholder Approval being obtained, and (y) the price determined by reference to clause (ii) of the definition of Floor Price. If one or more Share Combination Events occurs prior to the Warrant Stockholder Approval being obtained and the reduction of the exercise price to the Event Market Price, once the Warrant Stockholder Approval is obtained, the exercise price will automatically be reduced to the lowest Event Market Price with respect to any Share Combination Event that occurred prior to the Warrant Stockholder Approval being obtained and the Share Combination Issuable Shares will automatically be adjusted to equal the highest such number with respect to any Share Combination Event that occurred prior to the Stockholder Approval being obtained, provided that in no event will the exercise price be reduced below the Floor Price.
Adjustment of the Series A Warrant exercise price is currently subject to a floor price of $1.08 per share and such floor price will be adjusted to $0.216 per share following stockholder approval (such price, the “Floor Price”).
Assuming full alternative cashless exercise of the Series A Warrants at the Floor Price, we would issue 347,222,700 shares of our common stock. However, only 65,971,805 shares are currently available for such issuance out of our authorized shares of common stock. As such we are only registering 54,397,715 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrants pursuant to the registration statement on Form S-3 of which this prospectus is a part. Following and assuming approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal (as described below), we will, as needed, seek to register the remaining 292,824,985 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrants.
2
The Warrants may not be exercised if the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the holder thereof immediately following such exercise would exceed a specified beneficial ownership limitation (4.99%/9.99%); provided, however, that a holder may increase or decrease the beneficial ownership limitation by giving 61 days’ notice to the Company, but not to any percentage in excess of 9.99% (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”).
In connection with the Private Placement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with the selling stockholders on March 7, 2025 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to use reasonable best efforts to register the Securities for resale within thirty (30) days of the filing date of the registration statement (or, in the event of a “limited review” or “full review” seventy-five (75) days) and also agreed to call a special meeting of stockholders no later than sixty (60) days following the closing of the Private Placement for the approval of (i) the issuance of the Series A Warrant Shares and adjustments to the exercise price and shares in the Series A Warrants as required pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, and (ii) for an increase in the authorized number of shares of Common Stock as may be required for the full exercise of the Series A Warrants. We are seeking stockholder approval (“the Stockholder Approval”) to (i) to approve, for purposes of complying with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), the issuance of the Series A Warrant Shares and certain provisions of the Series A Warrants, (ii) approve a proposed amendment to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the total number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance thereunder from 100,000,000 shares to 800,000,000 shares (the “Charter Amendment Proposal”), at a special meeting of stockholders expected to be held on April 29, 2025.
On March 7, 2025, the Company also entered into a placement agency agreement with R.F. Lafferty & Co., Inc. (“R.F. Lafferty”) as the sole placement agent in connection with the Private Placement (the “Placement Agent”). As compensation to the Placement Agent, the Company will pay a commission equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the Private Placement.
The Private Placement closed on March 10, 2025. The Securities issued in the Private Placement were issued and offered pursuant to the exemptions from registration provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder.
Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company
We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). We may take advantage of certain exemptions from various public company reporting requirements, including not being required to have our internal control over financial reporting audited by our independent registered public accounting firm under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and any golden parachute payments. We may take advantage of these exemptions until the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our common equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier. We will cease to be an emerging growth company prior to the end of such period if certain earlier events occur, including if we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, our annual gross revenues exceed $1.235 billion or we issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt in any three-year period.
Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period under the JOBS Act until the earlier of the date we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act.
We are also a “smaller reporting company” as defined in the Exchange Act. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company even after we are no longer an emerging growth company, which would allow us to take advantage of many of the same exemptions available to emerging growth companies, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation. We will be able to take advantage of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies for so long as our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250.0 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter, or our annual revenue is less than $100.0 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700.0 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter.

We are filing the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part to permit the holders of the Shares of our Common Stock described in the section entitled “Selling Stockholders” to resell such Shares. We are not selling any securities under this prospectus, and we will not receive any proceeds from the sale or other disposition of shares of our Common Stock held by the selling stockholders. However, we may receive proceeds from any exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants or the Series A Warrants to purchase Common Stock for cash. Such proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The selling stockholders will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses incurred by the selling stockholders for brokerage, accounting, tax or legal services or any other expenses incurred by the selling stockholders in disposing of these Shares. We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the Shares covered by this prospectus, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, Nasdaq listing fees and fees and expenses of our counsel and our accountants.

This prospectus covers the resale from time to time of up to an aggregate of 65,971,805 Shares by the selling stockholders, consisting of (i) 9,687,045 shares of Common Stock, (ii) 1,887,045 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock, and (iii) 54,797,715 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Series A Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock. The Shares registered for resale herein are pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreements between us and the selling stockholders and relate to shares held by the selling stockholders not otherwise previously registered for resale.
The selling stockholders may offer and sell, from time to time, any or the Shares described under the column “Number of Shares of Shares Being Offered” in the table below. Except for the ownership of the securities, the selling stockholders have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.
As used in this prospectus, the term “selling stockholders” includes the selling stockholders listed in the table below, together with any additional selling stockholders listed in a subsequent amendment to this prospectus, and their donees, pledgees, assignees, transferees, distributees and successors-in-interest that receive shares in any non-sale transfer after the date of this prospectus.
The table below lists the selling stockholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the Shares by each of the selling stockholders as of March 12, 2025. The following table also provides the number of Shares that may be sold by each selling stockholder under this prospectus and that each selling stockholder will beneficially own assuming all the Shares that may be offered pursuant to this prospectus are sold. The number of shares described under the column “Shares of Common Stock Beneficially Owned Before this Offering” for each selling stockholder includes all shares of our Common Stock beneficially held by such selling stockholder as of March 12, 2025, which includes (i) all shares of our Common Stock purchased by such selling stockholder in the Private Placement, and (ii) all of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants purchased by such selling stockholder in the Private Placement, subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and excludes shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrants purchased by such selling stockholder in the Private Placement, the exercise of which is subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation and Stockholder Approval. Because each selling stockholder may dispose of all, none or some portion of their Shares, no estimate can be given as to the number of Shares that will be beneficially owned by a selling stockholder upon termination of this offering.
For purposes of the table below, however, we have assumed that after termination of this offering none of the Shares covered by this prospectus will be beneficially owned by the selling stockholders and further assumed that the selling stockholders will not acquire beneficial ownership of any additional Shares during the offering. In addition, the selling stockholders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, or may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, the Shares in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date on which the information in the table is presented. See the section titled “Plan of Distribution.”

Each selling stockholder and any of their donees, pledgees, assignees, transferees, distributees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their Shares covered hereby on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the Shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling Shares covered hereby:
· | ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; |
· | block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the Shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
· | purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; |
· | an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
· | privately negotiated transactions; |
· | settlement of short sales; |
· | in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such Shares 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 the Shares under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-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 Shares, 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 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 Shares 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 Shares in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell the Shares short and deliver these Shares to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the Shares to broker-dealers that in turn may sell the Shares. 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 the Shares offered by this prospectus, which Shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
13
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the Shares 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 Shares 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 Shares.
We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the Shares. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
We have agreed to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the Shares may be resold by the selling stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for us to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect, and (ii) all of the Shares have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale Shares 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 Shares 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 Shares 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 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 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Delaware Law
Section 102 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”) permits a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of directors of a corporation to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit.
Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or a person serving at the request of the corporation for another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise in related capacities against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with an action, suit or proceeding to which he was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding by reason of such position, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, except that, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
Amended and Restated Bylaws
Our amended and restated bylaws provide that we will indemnify each person who was or is a party or threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative by reason of the fact that he or she is or was, or is or was serving at our request, as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (all such persons being referred to as an “Indemnitee”), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes, penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, to the fullest extent allowed under the DGCL. Our amended and restated bylaws also provide that we shall advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or executive officer of the Company, or is or was serving at our request as a director or executive officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request therefor, all expenses incurred by any director or executive officer in connection with such proceeding. However, if the DGCL requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by a director or executive officer in his or her capacity as a director or executive officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such indemnitee, including service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made only upon delivery to us of an undertaking by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under our amended and restated bylaws or otherwise.
II-1
Indemnification Agreements and Insurance Matters
In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our current directors and executive officers. These agreements require us to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to us and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. We also intend to enter into indemnification agreements with our future directors and executive officers.
We also maintain standard policies of insurance under which coverage is provided to our directors and officers against losses arising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act, and to us with respect to payments which may be made by us to such directors and officers pursuant to the above indemnification provisions or otherwise as a matter of law.
The above discussion of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, our amended and restated bylaws, our indemnification agreements with our current directors and executive officers and Sections 102 and 145 of the DGCL is not intended to be exhaustive and is respectively qualified in its entirety by such amended and restated certificate of incorporation, such amended and restated bylaws, such indemnification agreements and such statutes.
To the extent that our directors, officers and controlling persons are indemnified under the provisions contained in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, Delaware law or contractual arrangements against liabilities arising under the Securities Act, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Filing Fee Tables” or “Calculation of Registration Fee” table, as applicable, in the effective registration statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.
(2) 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.
(3) 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.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
(i) Each prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
II-3
(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. 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 effective date, 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 effective date; or
(5) 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 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to 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.
(6) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by a Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of a 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, that Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
