We source high quality pre-owned inventory directly from consumers via our proprietary RideNow Cash Offer technology.

An investment in our securities involves risks. Before you make a decision to buy our securities, you should read and carefully consider all of the information described in this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein, including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our subsequent Current Reports on Form 8-K, particularly under the heading “Risk Factors”, and all other information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). If any of these risks were actually to occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our securities could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. In addition, please read “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this prospectus, where we describe additional uncertainties associated with our business and the forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Matters discussed in this prospectus and in other public disclosures, both written and oral, include “forward-looking” statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as codified in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They often include words such as “believes,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs, such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “aims,” “intends,” or “projects,” and similar expressions, whether in the negative or the affirmative. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the prospectus. These forward-looking statements are all based on currently available operating, financial and competitive information and are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Our actual future results and trends may differ materially depending on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties beginning on page 3 of this prospectus, as well as those risk factors described in any applicable prospectus supplement and in the documents we incorporate by reference in this prospectus. Given these risks and uncertainties, you should not rely on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. Any or all forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus and other public statements made by us, including by our management, may turn out to be incorrect. We are including this cautionary note to make applicable and take advantage of the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for forward-looking statements. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
There are a variety of factors that could cause actual results to differ from the forward-looking statements in this prospectus and the information incorporated by reference herein, including the following factors:
● | the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that we have identified in recent years, and our ability to remediate such weaknesses and to ensure that they do not affect our ability to accurately report our financial results; |
● | the sensitivity of the powersports industry and our business to changes in general economic conditions and their effects on demand for our products and services; |
● | highly competitive conditions in the powersports industry, and competitive pressures arising from existing and new companies; |
● | our ability to acquire vehicles that satisfy consumer demand; |
● | our ability to grow our business organically and through strategic acquisitions; |
● | any diversion of management’s attention in connection with acquisitions and other corporate transactions; |
● | difficulties in integrating acquired businesses; |
● | our significant indebtedness and the covenants in our debt agreements, which reduce our flexibility to respond to changing business and economic conditions; |
4
● | the fact that the interest rates payable under our debt agreements have increased in the past and may continue to increase, which could increase our interest expense; |
● | our ability to retain existing financing (including floor plan facilities), obtain additional financing or to refinance our outstanding indebtedness on satisfactory terms, if at all; |
● | any inability to retain or attract qualified personnel; |
● | any inability to develop, maintain, or market our brands; |
● | any inability to drive traffic to our website; |
● | any inability to grow our product offerings; |
● | any failure of third parties to provide financing, extended protection products, or other products or services to our customers; |
● | changes to the supply or prices of new or pre-owned vehicles; |
● | changes in trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs; | |
● | natural disasters, adverse weather and other events to disrupt our business; |
● | any failure to adequately protect personal information; |
● | any failure to adequately protect our intellectual property, including our proprietary cash offer technology; |
● | any failure to obtain or maintain adequate insurance coverage; |
● | adverse conditions affecting one or more of the powersports manufacturers with which we hold franchises; | |
● | any disruptions or breaches involving our or our third-party providers’ IT systems, which could harm our operations, reputation, and financial condition; |
● | any change or deterioration in the relationship with the manufacturers of powersports vehicles we sell; |
● | any reduction or discontinuation of sales incentive, warranty, or other promotional programs by manufacturers; |
● | seasonality and weather trends; and |
● | other factors in the cautionary statements included in this prospectus, particularly in the “Risk Factors” section, and in other documents we file from time to time with the SEC, specifically our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and our Current Reports on Form 8-K, particularly under the heading “Risk Factors.” |
We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions, or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions, and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as may be required under the securities laws of the United States. You are advised, however, to consult any additional disclosures we make in our reports filed with the SEC.

The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of Class B common stock by the selling stockholders under this prospectus. Any proceeds from the sale of shares of Class B common stock under this prospectus will be received by the selling stockholders.
We will pay all expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below) for the registration of the selling stockholders’ offer and sale of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus, including, without limitation, all registration, qualification and filing fees, listing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, stock exchange rules and filing, printing expenses, messenger and deliver expenses, fees and disbursements of custodians, and fees and disbursements of counsel, independent public accountants and other persons retained by the Company.

The following table provides information about the selling stockholders, listing how many shares of our Class B common stock the selling stockholders own on the date of this prospectus, how many shares may be offered by this prospectus, and the number and percentage of outstanding shares the selling stockholders will own after the offering, assuming all shares covered by this prospectus are sold. The information concerning beneficial ownership has been provided by the selling stockholders. Information concerning the selling stockholders may change from time to time, and any changed information will be set forth if and when required in prospectus supplements or other appropriate forms permitted to be used by the SEC.
The selling stockholders may offer and sell the shares of Class B common stock covered by this prospectus from time to time. We do not know when or in what amounts the selling stockholders may offer shares for sale. The selling stockholders may choose not to sell any or all of the shares offered by this prospectus. Because the selling stockholders may offer all or some of the shares, and because there are currently no agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale of any of the shares, we cannot accurately report the number of the shares that will be held by the selling stockholders after completion of the offering. However, for purposes of this table, we have assumed that, after completion of the offering, all of the shares covered by this prospectus will be sold by the selling stockholders.
We have prepared this prospectus and the registration statement of which it is a part to comply with our registration obligations under a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) dated as of December 19, 2024, among the Company, Stone House Capital Management, LLC (together with its affiliates, “Stone House”), Mark Tkach and William Coulter (together, the “selling stockholders”) with respect to the 3,792,622 shares of our common stock issued to the selling stockholders (i) pursuant to that certain Standby Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 8, 2023, as amended, among the Company and the selling stockholders (the “Standby Purchase Agreement”) and (ii) pursuant to that certain Support and Standby Purchase Agreement dated as of November 26, 2024, among the Company and the selling stockholders (the “Support and Standby Purchase Agreement”), and beneficially owned by the selling stockholders.
The number of shares outstanding, and the percentage of beneficial ownership, post-offering are based on 37,809,028 shares of Class B common stock issued and outstanding as of May 1, 2025. For the purposes of the following table, the number of shares of Class B common stock beneficially owned has been determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, and such information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under Rule 13d-3, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which the selling stockholders have sole or shared voting power or investment power and also any shares which the selling shareholders, respectively, have the right to acquire within 60 days of the date of this prospectus through the exercise of any stock option, warrant or other rights.

Common Stock
Annual Meeting
Annual meetings of our stockholders are held on the date designated by the Board. Written notice must be mailed to each stockholder entitled to vote not less than ten nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting. The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of record of one-third (33%) of our issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote at such meeting constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business at meetings of the stockholders, except as otherwise provided by statute or the articles of incorporation. Special meetings of the stockholders may be called for any purpose by the chairman and shall be called by the chairman or secretary at the request in writing of a majority of the Board, or at the request in writing of stockholders holding shares in the aggregate entitled to cast not less than a majority of the votes at any such meeting. Except as may be otherwise provided by applicable law, our articles of incorporation or our bylaws, all elections of directors shall be decided by a plurality, and all other questions shall be decided by a majority, of the votes cast by stockholders entitled to vote thereon at a duly held meeting of stockholders at which a quorum is present.
9
Issuance of Common Stock
Shares of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock may be issued from time to time as our Board may determine and on such terms and for such consideration as may be fixed by the Board.
Voting Rights
The Class A common stock is identical as to voting rights in all respects to the Class B common stock, except that holders of the Class A common stock are entitled to ten votes per share of Class A common stock issued and outstanding.
Dividends
Holders of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock are entitled to share ratably in dividends, if any, as may be declared, from time to time by our Board, in its discretion, from funds legally available to be distributed.
Liquidation, Dissolution, and Winding Up
In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, the holders of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock are entitled to share pro rata all assets remaining after payment in full of all liabilities and the prior payment to the preferred stockholders if any.

It is not possible to state the actual effect of the issuance of any shares of preferred stock on the rights of holders of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock until our Board determines the specific powers, preferences and rights attached to that preferred stock. The effects of issuing additional preferred stock could include one or more of the following:
● | restricting dividends on the Class A common stock and Class B common stock; |
● | diluting the voting power of the Class A common stock and Class B common stock; |
● | impairing the liquidation rights of the Class A common stock and Class B common stock; or |
● | delaying or preventing changes in control or management of our company. |
Certain Provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and Nevada Law
Board of Directors
Our bylaws provide that each member of our Board will be elected annually for a one-year term. Our bylaws also provide that directors may be removed only by the vote of stockholders representing not less than two-thirds of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote. The stockholders may elect a director or directors at any time to fill any vacancy or vacancies not filled by the directors, but any such election by written consent shall require the consent of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote.
Amendment of Bylaws
Our bylaws may be altered or repealed, and new bylaws may be adopted, by the Board by a majority vote of the whole Board.
Nevada Laws
Nevada corporate law contains a provision governing “Acquisition of Controlling Interest.” This law provides generally that any person or entity that acquires 20% or more of the outstanding voting shares of a publicly-held Nevada corporation in the secondary public or private market may be denied voting rights with respect to the acquired shares, unless a majority of the disinterested stockholders of the corporation elects to restore such voting rights in whole or in part. The control share acquisition act provides that a person or entity acquires a “controlling interest” whenever it acquires shares that, but for the operation of the control share acquisition act, would bring its voting power within any of the following three ranges:
● | 20.0% to 33.3%; |
● | 33.3% to 50.0%; and |
● | more than 50.0%. |
A “control share acquisition” is generally defined as the direct or indirect acquisition of either ownership or voting power associated with issued and outstanding control shares (as defined in Section 78.3784 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”)). The stockholders or Board of a corporation may elect to exempt the stock of the corporation from the provisions of the control share acquisition act through adoption of a provision to that effect in the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws exempt our Class A common stock and Class B common stock from the control share acquisition act.
Exclusive Forum
Our articles of incorporation and bylaws do not contain an exclusive forum provision.

The selling stockholders, or their pledgees, donees, transferees, or any of their successors in interest selling shares received from a named selling stockholders as a gift, partnership distribution or other non-sale-related transfer after the date of this prospectus (all of whom may be selling stockholders), may sell the securities from time to time on any stock exchange or automated interdealer quotation system on which the securities are listed, in the over-the-counter market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, at fixed prices that may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at prices otherwise negotiated. The selling stockholders may sell the securities by one or more of the following methods, without limitation:
(a) | block trades in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
(b) | underwritten transactions; |
(c) | purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by the broker or dealer for its own account pursuant to this prospectus; |
(d) | an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of any stock exchange on which the securities are listed; |
(e) | ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchases; |
(f) | privately negotiated transactions; |
(g) | short sales; |
(h) | through the writing of options on the securities, whether or not the options are listed on an option exchange; |
(i) | through the distribution of the securities by the selling stockholders to its partners; |
(j) | one or more underwritten offerings on a firm commitment or best efforts basis; or |
(k) | any combination of any of these methods of sale. |
12
The selling stockholders may also transfer the securities by gift. We do not know of any arrangements by the selling stockholders for the sale of any of the securities. The selling stockholders may engage brokers and dealers, and any brokers or dealers may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate in effecting sales of the securities. These brokers, dealers or underwriters may act as principals, or as an agent of a selling stockholder. Broker-dealers may agree with a selling stockholder to sell a specified number of the securities at a stipulated price per security. If the broker-dealer is unable to sell securities acting as agent for a selling stockholder, it may purchase as principal any unsold securities at the stipulated price. Broker-dealers who acquire securities as principals may thereafter resell the securities from time to time in transactions in any stock exchange or automated interdealer quotation system on which the securities are then listed, at prices and on terms then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the then-current market price or in negotiated transactions. Broker-dealers may use block transactions and sales to and through broker- dealers, including transactions of the nature described above. The selling stockholders may also sell the securities in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act rather than pursuant to this prospectus, regardless of whether the securities are covered by this prospectus.
From time to time, the selling stockholders may pledge, hypothecate or grant a security interest in some or all of the securities owned by them. The pledgees, secured parties or persons to whom the securities have been hypothecated will, upon foreclosure in the event of default, be deemed to be a selling stockholder. The number of a selling stockholders’ securities offered under this prospectus will decrease as and when it takes such actions. The plan of distribution for the selling stockholders’ securities will otherwise remain unchanged. In addition, selling stockholders may, from time to time, sell the securities short, and, in those instances, this prospectus may be delivered in connection with the short sales and the securities offered under this prospectus may be used to cover short sales.
To the extent required under the Securities Act, the aggregate amount of selling stockholders’ securities being offered and the terms of the offering, the names of any agents, brokers, dealers or underwriters and any applicable commission with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement. Any underwriters, dealers, brokers or agents participating in the distribution of the securities may receive compensation in the form of underwriting discounts, concessions, commissions or fees from selling stockholders and/or purchasers of selling stockholders’ securities of securities, for whom they may act (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions).
The selling stockholders and any underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents that participate in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any discounts, concessions, commissions or fees received by them and any profit on the resale of the securities sold by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions.
As set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, we have agreed to register for resale the shares of Class B common stock as required under the Support and Standby Purchase Agreement. The Registration Rights Agreement provides for indemnification of the selling stockholders against specific liabilities in connection with the offer and sale of the shares of Class B common stock, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
No director of RumbleOn will have personal liability to us or any of our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director involving any act or omission of any such director since provisions have been made in our articles of incorporation limiting such liability. The foregoing provisions shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director for:
● | acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of law; or |
● | unlawful distributions in violation of Section 78.300 of the NRS. |
We are a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Nevada. Section 78.138 of the NRS provides that, unless the corporation’s articles of incorporation provide otherwise, a director or officer will not be individually liable unless (a) the presumption that a director or officer acted in good faith, on an informed bases and with a view to the interest of the corporation is rebutted; and (b) it is proven that (i) the director’s or officer’s acts or omissions constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties, and (ii) such breach involved intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of the law.
Section 78.7502 of the NRS permits a company to indemnify its directors and officers against expenses, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with a threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, if the officer or director (i) is not liable pursuant to Section 78.138 of the NRS, or (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner the officer or director reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, if a criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct of the officer or director was unlawful. Section 78.751 of the NRS requires a corporation to indemnify a director or officer that has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action or suit. Section 78.7502 of the NRS precludes indemnification by the corporation if the officer or director has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court determines that in view of all the circumstances, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses. Section 78.751 of the NRS requires a corporation to indemnify its officers and directors if they have been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any claim, issue, or matter resulting from their service as a director or officer.
II-1
Section 78.751 of the NRS permits a Nevada company to indemnify its officers and directors against expenses incurred by them in defending a civil or criminal action, suit, or proceeding as they are incurred and in advance of final disposition thereof, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation. Under Section 78.751 of the NRS, if so provided in the corporation’s articles of incorporation, bylaws, or other agreement, a corporation may be required to advance expenses as incurred upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the officer or director to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such officer or director is not entitled to be indemnified by the company. Section 78.751 of the NRS further permits the company to grant its directors and officers additional rights of indemnification under its articles of incorporation, bylaws, or other agreement.
Section 78.752 of the NRS provides that a Nevada company may purchase and maintain insurance or make other financial arrangements on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the company, or is or was serving at the request of the company as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, for any liability asserted against him and liability and expenses incurred by him in his capacity as a director, officer, employee, or agent, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the company has the authority to indemnify him against such liability and expenses.
Article VI of our amended bylaws provides for indemnification of our directors, officers, and employees in most cases for any liability suffered by them or arising out of their activities as directors, officers, and employees if they were not engaged in willful misfeasance or malfeasance in the performance of his or her duties. Our bylaws, therefore, limit the liability of directors consistent with Section 78.7502 and Section 78.751 of the NRS.
Our officers and directors are accountable to us as fiduciaries, which means they are required to exercise good faith and fairness in all dealings affecting RumbleOn. In the event a stockholder believes the officers or directors have violated their fiduciary duties, the stockholder may, subject to applicable rules of civil procedure, be able to bring a class action or derivative suit to enforce the stockholder’s rights, including rights under certain federal and state securities laws and regulations to recover damages from and require an accounting by management. Stockholders who have suffered losses in connection with the purchase or sale of their interest in RumbleOn in connection with such sale or purchase, including the misapplication by any such officer or director of proceeds from a sale of securities may be able to recover such losses from us.
We have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and other persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. In the event a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than payment of expenses incurred or paid by a director or officer in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or other person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 16. Exhibits.
* | Filed herewith. |
Item 17. Undertakings.
(a) | The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: |
(1) | To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: |
(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 Securities and Exchange 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 (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) of this section do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 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.
II-3
(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) | 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. |
(b) | The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes 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 (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. |
(c) | 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 foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 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, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. |
